 ULTRAPROBE® 550
How Ultrasonic Technology Works for You
The Ultraprobe 550 senses a narrow range of ultrasonic high frequency
signals and electronically translates them into the audible range that users can
hear and easily recognize. Ultrasound is a short wave signal which provides many
benefits.
Being directional, the sound intensity does not travel far from the
source making detection of problem sounds very fast and very accurate. Since the
instrument senses only high frequency sounds, it ignores most troublesome
background noises.
Designed for ease of use, it often takes no more than 15
minutes to become competent in testing with the ULTRAPROBE 550. The ULTRAPROBE
550 heterodynes ultrasound to the audible range providing accurate sound
reproduction.
Ultraprobes versatility makes it ideally suited to work with any plant
program:
- Predictive Maintenance (PDM)
- Energy Conservation
- Safety
- Quality Assurance (QA/QC)
- Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
- Process Safety Management (PSM)
Ultraprobe provides data acquisition through three modes:
- Auditory Channels (via an acoustically isolating headset)
- Analog Meter
- Demodulated Signal for vibration data collectors and FFTs
