Ultrasound is an essential component of any condition monitoring program, offering a broad range of applications and a user-friendly tool. This book delves into the diverse uses of Ultrasound Detection techniques, revealing numerous opportunities to reduce energy waste and boost asset availability in industrial plants.
Instruments utilizing airborne/structure borne ultrasound technology expand the scope of “Condition Monitoring” well beyond rudimentary mechanical fault examinations. The inspection capabilities of these devices are extensive, encompassing the trending of bearing statuses, identification of insufficient lubrication, detection of compressed air leaks, and the discovery of arcing, tracking, and corona emissions in both open and enclosed electric equipment. These devices are adept at identifying friction, ionization, and turbulence.
The methodology relies on portable equipment to monitor and analyze bearing condition, detect leaks (pressure and vacuum), test steam traps and valves, identify electrical issues, and highlight potential problems with gears, motors, and pumps. This book provides a succinct overview of the technology, its applications, potential energy savings, cost analysis, and recommended inspection techniques.
