The “TATTLER” is a state of the art Steam Trap tester. Steam traps are dynamic devices, their condition cannot be accurately tested by single instantaneous temperature reading. The TATTLER contains a highly accurate infrared sensor which streams temperature data to the micro controller. First the TATTLER is held against the inlet to the trap. Within a few seconds sufficient data is accumulated and the TATTLER signals with a blue light. Now the process is repeated on the outlet of the trap and within moments the condition of the trap is determined and indicated with a red or green light.
