Parabolic sensor BS30  

 

 

  The parabolic sensor is used for the accurate detection of 

ultrasonic  waves over distances of up to 35 m. The 

following testing work can be carried out in combination 

with the SONAPHONE:  

  Detection of leaks in compressed air, 

gas and vacuum systems  

  Detection of electrical partial discharges and 

insulation damage  

  Tightness testing of windows, doors, vehicles or 

containers (in combination with the SONAPHONE T 

ultrasound transmitter)  

 

Testing can be easily stopped and started using the function key on the sensor handle. The target 

laser can be switched on via a separate button. The target laser and a light spot target device allow 

for the precise location of damage areas.
