Function description
At many flow processes of gases, liquids and solids in pipelines and on
leakages, ultrasound arises from friction. These ultrasonic signals will be
received with
the
SONAPHONE
RD
and the intensity gets audible with
speaker or headphone. Simultaneously the level of the ultrasound will
be diplayed on a LCD or a LED-scale, respectively.
Ultrasound can arise out of a multitude of processes, as for example:
•
at leakages within compressed-air-, steam- and vacuum plants
•
at condenser drains
•
at leaking valves, gate valves
,
shutoffs
,
taps in line systems
•
at roller bearing defects
•
at cavity
on pumps and compressors
•
at flash-overs and corona discharges on electrical installations
With the help of
SONAPHONE
RD
,
faults can exactly get located a
nd
their size can get assessed. SONAPHONE T is used to detect leaking
spots on vehicles, containers and ventilation systems, where no
ultrasound is produced. SONAPHONE T generates ultrasonic waves,
which come out from leaking spots.
The exact locating is done from the
outside with
SONAPHONE
RD
.
The testing device
SONAPHONE
RD
is a mains-independent, mobile
hand-held instrument. For the acquisition of the ultrasound, different
probes can be used, which can be connected with a cable or directly to
the testing device.
