RS Components (RS) has introduced a new maintenance tool from Fluke, a leading maker of electronic test tools and software for professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tool enables the fast detection of compressed air leaks and means maintenance teams can help in the process of improving the reliability of production lines, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a typical example application, the new Fluke ii900 Sonic Industrial Imager<\/a><\/strong> enables maintenance engineers and technicians to quickly locate compressed air leaks, which can negatively affect pneumatic equipment in a range of industrial and manufacturing environments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Potentially, it can also mean that companies can get the most out of their existing air compressors and therefore delay the capital expense of purchasing an additional compressor, for instance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The imager is an intuitive and easy-to-use tool that employs acoustics or sound-based technologies to locate potential issues by isolating the frequencies created by leaks or vacuums, even in extremely noisy production environments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It makes calculations to locate leaks or vacuums based on the direction and point of origin of a sound and the measurement of time delays as the sound passes over the tool\u2019s full array of microphones. This capability makes it easy to scan a large area and even capture leaks from a long distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key technique used by the ii900 imager is SoundSight technology, which is Fluke\u2019s proprietary technology of converting sound waves to a visual image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The imager displays a SoundMapTM over the top of a visual image, enabling the fast and easy location of problems on its 7in LCD, which also has a capacitive touchscreen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other important specifications of the imager include; a frequency detection range from 2 up to 52kHz; and a maximum operating distance up to approximately 50m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fluke ii900 Sonic Industrial Imager is shipping now from RS in the UK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
