SONOSPHERE
Tightness Testing
The mobile ultrasonic transmitter SONAPHONE T is used for the quick and reliable detection of leaks in windows, doors, cabins, vehicles and containers that have sealing surfaces or profile rubber seals. In connection with an ultrasonic testing device from the SONAPHONE series, efficient tightness testing is possible with very little effort. The simple functional principle does not require extensive training of personnel, nor does it entail any follow-up costs.
What is Sonosphere
In non-pressurized systems, the SONAPHONE T or SONOSPHERE ultrasonic transmitter emits high-frequency sound waves (around 40 kHz) into the area being inspected. If there is a leak, the sound waves will escape through the opening and be detected by the SONAPHONE receiver, which converts the ultrasonic signal into an audible sound and displays the results on screen in real time.
Tightness Testing
In many industries, the quick and accurate detection of leaks and seal failures around windows, doors, cabins, hatch covers, vehicles, and containers with sealing surfaces or rubber profile seals is essential.
In addition to applications in the automotive and rail vehicle industries, our ultrasonic testing devices are also widely used in shipbuilding, as well as for inspecting fire safety doors, climate chambers, and clean rooms.
With the SONAPHONE device, locating and identifying leaks becomes simple. In non-pressurized systems, the SONAPHONE receiver can be used together with the SONAPHONE T transmitter, which emits ultrasonic signals that pass through leaks and can then be detected by the receiver.
For large or irregularly shaped areas, we offer the spherical transmitter SONOSPHERE, which is ideal for a wide range of challenging inspection tasks.
SONAPHONE - Innovative Ultrasonic Testing Device
Tightness testing
The SONAPHONE T mobile ultrasonic transmitter is designed for the rapid and reliable detection of seal failures in windows, doors, cabins, vehicles and containers with sealing surfaces or rubber profile seals. In addition to applications in road and rail vehicle construction, the SONAPHONE T is also used in the ship and boat building industry and for testing fire safety doors, climatic chambers and clean rooms. Used in conjunction with an ultrasonic receiver from the SONAPHONE series, the SONAPHONE T enables efficient tightness testing at minimal cost. Due to the simple operating principle, use of the device does not require a great deal of costly staff training and therefore minimises post-purchase costs.The robust ultrasonic transmitter has an integrated LC-display for simple menu navigation. The modulation of the transmission signal guarantees the clear detection of the ultrasound signal, irrespective of potential background noise. Furthermore, the sound intensity of the transmitter is also adjustable. This means that the device is capable of precisely detecting the smallest of leaks as well as large areas of leakage.
The option of using the additional omnidirectional spherical transmitter SONOSPHERE enables the testing of both very large and awkwardly-shaped areas.
