Sonus XT – Compact Ultrasonic Testing Device for Preventive Maintenance ON MV HV Switchgear & Cables
uploaded by Chris Dodds - reading time 2 minutes
The versatility of the Sonus XT makes it ideally suited to work with any plant maintenance program and the perfect complement to other Predictive Maintenance (PDM) Technology.
The ultrasonic testing device is easy to use converting ultrasound into audible signals showing instantaneous and maximum sound level readings in decibels.
Ultrasound detection can be utilised to transmit early warning signs that detect faults on connections in cabinets and OHL (when using the parabolic dish – available as an optional extra). Inspections can be performed quickly and safely by plant personnel with minimal training. Fast and accurate diagnosis of problems using the Sonus XT will save you time and money.
The Sonus XT can quickly and safely perform closed panel airborne ultrasound inspections of electrical equipment including Switchgear, Switchboards, Panelboards, Transformers, Motor Control Centers and Process Equipment Panels to detect early warning signs including: Arcing, Tracking and Corona.
➡ Please note Sonus XT detects PD at above 5kV as it definitely won’t work on LV systems.
Sonus XT – Features & Benefits
Compact and robust construction aluminum body handheld unit
Intuitive controls using five soft key pushbuttons
Easy to use unit converts ultrasound into audible signals and shows instantaneous and maximum sound level readings in decibels
Versatile quick-change Probe Accessories available for airborne and contact based applications
High quality behind-the-head style headset compatible for use with hardhats
Minimal training is required to get a Predictive Maintenance program using Ultrasound up and running
Detect early warning signs of problems in medium/high voltage electrical and mechanical assets long before they become failures
Find leaks and save on energy costs – finding and fixing compressed air leaks can often reduce energy costs by up to 30%
Collect baseline and trend information on mechanical asset performance to streamline maintenance planning
