Ultrasound FFT Analysis

ZERO downtime with Asset Health Monitoring through Ultrasound Technology.

APPLICATION WITH INSTRUMENT

Ultrasound

Ultrasound Spectrum Analysis (USA): This technique uses a specialized ultrasound sensor to detect and analyze high-frequency sound waves emitted by machinery and electrical equipment. The specific sound signatures can reveal various issues such as:

    • Mechanical:
      • Bearing wear and tear
      • Gear defects
      • Cavitation (formation and collapse of bubbles in liquids)
      • Valve leaks
      • Steam trap malfunction
    • Electrical:
      • Partial discharge (corona discharge)
      • Tracking (surface discharge along insulation)
      • Arcing (high-energy electrical discharge)

Condition monitoring: mechanical

Ultrasound detects friction, impacting, turbulence and Bearing defects cause friction and impacting earlier than any other condition monitoring technology.

Bearing lubrication monitoring

An Ultrasound Device allows users to carefully monitor a bearing during a lubrication task. Both audio and visual representations of the bearings decibel level are displayed to provide greasing guidance. As grease is added to the bearing the decibel levels will decrease.

Electrical fault detection

Ultrasound is a safe and effective way to inspect your electrical assets at all voltage levels, allowing you to scan enclosed gear before opening for further inspection.

valve passing & air leakages

Use of an ultrasound this tool is different from the device mentioned above for the acoustic detection of a passing valve & air leakages.

Advantages of Ultrasound Technology after implementation at Power, Oil and Gas, Steel, Chemical & Process Industry.

  • Users can hear in real-time the sounds of operating equipment.
  • Detection of abnormal sound.
  • Ultrasound provides early warning indications of failure conditions.
  • Sound samples can be both heard in real time when analyzed on a PC.
  • Ultrasound will detect lack of lubrication & prevent over lubrication.
  • Ultrasound is very effective for monitoring the bearings of speed.
  • Ultrasound is very effective for monitoring bearings of all speeds.
  • Ultrasound instruments can be used in noisy environments.
  • Ultrasound instruments support other technologies
