AIRBORNE & CONTACT DETECTION SERVICES
Talk to Altheus Infrared about using airborne ultrasound for
stand-alone surveys or verification of infrared findings... it all depends on
the application.
Altheus Infrared's equipment includes a digital
ultrasound detector with a parabolic dish, contact probes, warble tone
generator (for use in enclosed space for leak detection) and digital audio
capture equipment to document it all.
UE Systems software can be used to show a graphical analysis, trends and help
identifiy the type of issue detected.
Digital airborne ultrasound detector
applications include:
High Voltage Electrical
Gas Leaks
Vacuum Leaks
Liquid Leaks
Steam Leaks
Steam Trap Operation
Bearing Issues
Seal Leaks / Gaps
Air Line fitting leak detected with
ultrasound
Leak in air hose fitting
detected using airborne ultrasound detector. Component then photographed with
the thermal imaging camera. The leak point is outlined using an Iso-therm
(highlighting the anomaly in red).
Ultrasound detected this vacuum leak at a boot
on a precipitator "rapper" (used to collect dust - removing it from the air
inside the precipitator.)
Ultrasound used to detect these pin-hole
leaks in a cyclone dust separator. Infrared used to pin-point the exact
location of these two holes.
