leakage search

leak test

equipment test

application:

simple search of small leaks and leakages, excellent leak detection via new sound converter technology

inexpensive and reproducible leakage search at pneumatic, steam, gas and vacuum plants, boilers, pipes, valves, runners, steam traps

the reliable early detection of bearing defects and abrasion noise

definite detection of electrical insulation damage during partial discharges

further extensive accessories

operating principle:

In flow configurations of gases or liquids in pipes and at leakages, ultrasound will be emitted, because of internal friction. It is possible to locate these high-frequency signals very accurate via ultrasonic detectors, even partly over distances of several meters.They will be converted into electrical and acoustic signals in SONAPHONE R.
The converted ultrasonic signals can be observed with head receivers absorbing the surrounding sound.

In non-pressured systems a small ultrasonic transmitter (SONAPHONE T) will be utilized. Its signals pass through the leakage and can be detected by the SONAPHONE R.

Bearing defects of roller bearings result in higher friction, so create noises and can be identified by using impact sound sensors.
