Ultrasonic Detector

(formerly marketed as the

Ultraphonic Detector)

Automotive, Rolling Stock and Fleet Vehicle Maintenance

The Ultrasonic Detector (formerly marketed as the Ultraphonic Detector) is a unique diagnostic tool that has achieved outstanding results in reducing downtime and maintenance related costs.  Through the detection of ultrasonic sound, the Ultrasonic Detector (formerly marketed as the Ultraphonic Detector) is used to inspect and diagnose vehicle components such as:   air brake systems, bearings, gear trains, cam and tappet assemblies, internal combustion engine valving and piston blow-by, gaseous piping and dusting, seals in refrigerated van bodies, air ducts, hydraulic systems and many others.

Except for their frequencies,  ultrasonic waves are exactly the same as their audible counterparts.  Audible sound will propagate and compound itself through equipment making it difficult to locate the source even with a stethescope.  Because ultrasonic waves are not as penetrating as those of other frequencies, it is much easier to pinpoint the source of the sound.  Moreover, there is usually much less noise interference.  Conversation and most background noises are normally absent.   Extremely minute sounds can therefore be detected, analyzed and the exact location determined. 

The Ultrasonic Detector (formerly marketed as the Ultraphonic Detector) system consists of an ultrasonic sound receiver, an ultrasonic sound transmitter, probe attachments and headphones.  The receiver is only sensitive to ultrasonic energy in the frequency range of 40,000 to 50,000 Hertz.  This energy is amplified by the self contained circuitry and converted to either sounds heard through the headphones or readings on the meter.The ultrasonic transmitter is used with the receiver to check for faulty seals in cabs, trailers and other non pressurized enclosures.
