Hazardous Location Acoustic Imaging Camera for Partial Discharge, Leak, and Bearing Fault Detection
Key Features :
- Detects, locates, and measures compressed gas leaks and mechanical issues in explosive atmospheres quickly and easily
- Offers mechanical issue condition assessment with three measurement metrics for early identification of bearing problems to prevent costly downtime
- Quantifies leak rate and cost of industrial gas and compressed air leaks, to prioritize repair and calculate savings
- Includes on-camera and in-software severity assessment and type classification of partial discharge (PD) issues
- Features automatic frequency tuning, 8x zoom, 12 MP digital camera, and a QR code reader
- Offers fleet management functionality for efficient tool usage and maintenance across large-scale operations
Main Applications:
- Early leak detection for enhancing safety and for “pre-turnaround” tightness inspections, with minimal training
- Quickly inspect Zone 2 rated hazardous locations for partial discharge issues, mechanical faults or potential leaks
- Detect faulty bearings quickly to help plan repairs and avoid downtime
