Ultrasound Camera UltraCam LD 500/510
uses 30 MEMS microphones for the Calculation and visualisation of the ultrasound image. The device also makes inaudible ultrasound audible.
Measuring devices for leak detection and calculation
In industrialised countries, around 10 % of total industrial electricity consumption is used for compressed air generation, in Germany the figure is as high as 14 %. Leakages are the main factor for energy losses and most compressed air systems have losses in the range of about 20 % to 40 %, in poor systems even more than 60 %. Eliminating compressed air leaks is the most effective way to reduce energy consumption. Compressed air leaks often waste 8760 hours (24 h x 365 d) of energy per year and increase compressor run times, which also shortens maintenance intervals. It is therefore a must to regularly detect and eliminate leakages. Our LD series offers you all the functions you need to detect leakages and measure the consequences in terms of energy consumption and wasted money.
Typical applications of our measuring devices in this area are leak detection in compressed air systems and leak testing of unpressurised systems.

Measuring devices for Leak detection and Leak detection - not only in Compressed air
Leakages are the Achilles heel of all compressed air and gas networks. According to various studies, Leak detection and the sealing of Leakages can save an average of around 30% of compressed air costs. Regular inspection and consistent elimination are therefore essential. Under certain conditions, the initial investment in Leakage measuring devices is also subsidised by BAFA (further information can be found in our news section).
Our Leakage measuring devices are typically used, for example, for Leak detection in Compressedair systems or as part of leak testing of unpressurised systems. The principle of the detection devices is based on ultrasonic leak detection. Our LD devices convert the inaudible ultrasonic waves generated by Compressed air leaks into audible sound, making them very easy for the user to localise.
