Key Features of Automated Pitot Leak Tester

  • Automated Control & Profiles

    Pre-loaded test profiles guide operators through pitot and static leak checks with consistent ramp rates and pass/fail thresholds for repeatable results.
  • Real-Time Monitoring & Data Capture

    High-resolution sensors provide live pressure, altitude, airspeed, and rate readings—ideal for audit trails, QA records, and documentation.
  • Safety & Protection

    Emergency vent-to-ground, automatic exit from leak mode on large leaks, and pressure-trap on power loss protect sensitive aircraft instrumentation.
  • Portable, Field-Ready Design

    Lightweight enclosure, integrated pumps, and aviation quick-connect fittings enable rapid setup in hangar or ramp environments.
