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.

Detector passes from C phase (problem area) to B phase and back.

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
