The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies uses ultrasonic listening technology to conduct mechanical and electrical inspections on industrial equipment. Industrial facilities are often loud and busy places where it can be difficult to observe the sounds emitting from each machine. Fortunately, modern ultrasound technology helps professionals accurately locate the source of specific sounds, allowing them to investigate the potential causes of worrisome sounds in various environments.
What is Ultrasonic Listening?
Ultrasonic listening is a preventative maintenance technique that allows businesses to passively evaluate their equipment, highlighting potential areas of concern. This noncontact inspection process uses sensitive listening technology to detect the presence of high-frequency emissions stemming from industrial machines and equipment, and leaks present in industrial facilities and settings.
Ultrasonic inspections are adept at capturing the sounds produced by unwanted friction occurring between components as an instrument operates. Ultrasonic inspectors use the technology to diagnose electrical and mechanical issues that may worsen if the contributing factors go unaddressed.
