The UE Systems SPECTRALYZAR is a crucial component of their ultrasonic inspection and monitoring instruments, such as the Ultraprobe series and OnTrak systems. It provides real-time spectral analysis of ultrasonic signals, which are sounds above the range of human hearing. This technology is used for predictive maintenance, leak detection, and condition monitoring in a wide range of industrial applications. By visualizing the frequency content of ultrasonic emissions, users can identify and diagnose problems before they lead to equipment failure.
Key Features :
- Real-Time Ultrasonic Spectrum: Displays the intensity of ultrasonic sound at different frequencies (above human hearing) as a graph (FFT).
- Adjustable Range: Users can zoom in/out on specific frequency and amplitude ranges.
- Peak Hold: Captures the maximum amplitude at each frequency.
- Precise Measurement: Cursor for reading specific frequency and amplitude values.
- Data Logging/Recording: Records spectral data and often the associated (heterodyned) sound file.
- Software Integration: Works with software (DMS, etc.) for advanced analysis, reporting, and trending.
- Multiple Display Modes: Often includes spectrum, time waveform, and waterfall views.
- Heterodyning: Essential feature that translates ultrasonic sounds to the audible range for analysis.
- Designed for Condition Monitoring: Specifically for finding leaks, mechanical faults, and electrical issues that generate ultrasound.
This combination of features makes the SPECTRALYZAR a powerful tool for preventative and predictive maintenance.
