Ultrasonic Detector SONAPHONE E - The early warning system

• leakage detection
• leak tightness control
• fitting testing
• temperature measuring

Application:

• easy detection of small leaks and leakages with the new sound transducer technology
  
• cost-effective leak detection at compressed-air, steam, gas and vacuum systems, boilers, pipes, valves, gates, steam traps
  
• the reliable early detection of bearing defects and abrasion noise
  
• reliable and early detection of bearing defects and abrasion noise
  
• clear detection of electrical insulation damages during partial discharges
  
• intrinsic safety for applications in hazardous areas
  
• an integrated USB interface and a data memory provide maximum operating comfort (memory for 250 single- and long time tests with max. 21000 datasets)
  
• integrated temperature measuring, speakers and further extensive accessories

Operating Principle:

Due to internal friction in flow configurations of gases or liquids in pipes as well as at leakages ultrasound is emitted. High-frequency signals can be located exactly via the ultrasonic detectors. These signals are converted into electrical and acoustic signals. The converted ultrasonic signals can be observed with integrated speakers or with soundproof head phones.

In unpressurized systems a small ultrasonic transmitter (SONAPHONE T) is used, whose signals that pass
of the leakage are detectable by the SONAPHONE E.

Because of its intrinsic safety construction the SONAPHONE E is allowed for the use in hazardous areas.

Bearing defects of roller bearings result in higher friction and can be identified by using probes for structure borne noise.

A USB interface and a software packet allow an easy handling of measurement control. Tendencies during the monitoring of particular objects can be registered easily .

An attachable temperature sensor shows the temperature of steam traps for example. Also temperature changes at pipelines and at thermal strained components can be recorded quickly.
