Elevate your existing measurement and automation systems with Ultrasound

​

The UltraTrak 850S Smart Analog Sensor is a modern ultrasound sensor and transmitter designed to detect early-onset failures in industrial equipment. The 850S will work either in tandem with existing plant automation or the OnTrak remote monitoring system and can be used for a wide range of applications including ultrasound condition-based lubrication, bearing fault detection, valve leakage, and steam trap issues.

Easy Installation and Quick Start
 

• Easy to install and connect to existing PLC, SCADA, DCS, or other plant technology within 10 minutes

• OnTrak-Ready for connection to UE Insights

• Built-in patented auto-sensitivity adjustment, the 850S continuously monitors friction, impacting, and turbulence

• Can be used to automate warnings in the event of bearing or lubrication failure

• Can be used for condition-based lubrication, bearing fault detection, valve leakage, and steam trap issues

• Reliable, ultra-fast way to start analyzing trends and making informed maintenance decisions

• Supports any rolling element bearing at any speed – including slow-speed bearings as low as 1 RPM

How it Works

​

The UltraTrak senses high frequency emissions produced by operating equipment. A baseline threshold can be set within a wide dynamic range of 120 decibels. Once set the UltraTrak then monitors changes of ultrasonic amplitude. 

The UltraTrak can be connected with other devices to provide alarms or for tracking potential problems over time. In some instances the UltraTrak can be used for sound level increases, such as to warn of onset of valve leakage or bearing failure. Amplitude fall-off can be used to signal line flow disruption or alarm of machine shutdown.

​

UltraTrak guards against unplanned downtime and product loss the minute it is installed. UltraTrak passively monitors ultrasound produced by operating equipment. It can be readily connected to alarms or recorders for data logging, thanks to its 4-20 mA current output, coupled with a pure demodulated output.

​

Housed in stainless steel, the rugged UltraTrak is water resistant and dust proof, which means it can be externally mounted in some of the most challenging environments. Couple this with an extraordinarily wide dynamic range of 120 dB and auto sensitivity adjustment; this sensor is ready to meet your most demanding sensing needs.
