AIRBORNE & CONTACT DETECTION SERVICES

Talk to Altheus Infrared about using airborne ultrasound for stand-alone surveys or verification of infrared findings... it all depends on the application.

Altheus Infrared's equipment includes a digital ultrasound detector with a parabolic dish, contact probes, warble tone generator (for use in enclosed space for leak detection) and digital audio capture equipment to document it all.

Ultrasound Equipment

Digital airborne ultrasound detector applications include:

  • Gas Leaks
  • Vacuum Leaks
  • Liquid Leaks
  • Steam Leaks
  • Steam Trap Operation
  • Bearing Issues
  • Seal Leaks / Gaps
