intention is to measure signals with amplitudes in the range of a few Microvolts to Volt and a frequency range
of 20 kHz to 500 kHz. As of these characteristics it is suited for measuring Acoustic Emission.
The coupling check transducer is driven by the spotWave device and can be used as an artificial source of
acoustic emission for (i) checking the mounting quality and function of the AE sensor, (ii) measuring the
time-of-flight or (iii) measuring the speed of sound.
Acquisition software, compatible to Android 8 or later and Windows 10, is part of the spotWave device. A
license for using the VisualAE™ analysis program is also part of the spotWave device.
A spotWave AE measurement system shall only be used by qualified personnel. A definition of qualified
personnel can be found in the section Intended Audience.
