Airborne & Structure Borne ultrasound have been gaining tremendous popularity over recent decades and is no longer a technology only available to a privileged few. Very simple to use, relatively inexpensive and requires minimal training to deliver fast, accurate results for any industrial environment.


Key applications focus on 5 main focus areas:

Leak detection (compressed air, compressed gas & vacuum leaks)

Steam system inspections (steam traps, boiler tubes, condenser tubes, valves)

Mechanical (bearings, gears, pumps, hydraulic systems, seals, valves)

Variable speed, variable load and multi-directional applications down to 0.1RPM

Electrical discharge on high, medium and low voltage systems (transformers, poles & wires, MCC’s, relays, switchboards, etc)


So, an incredibly versatile technology that can be used as a front line maintenance inspection tool or a high end condition monitoring and reliability improvement system. It easily integrates and compliments any existing technologies in place to assist in improved diagnosis and prognosis.
