UltraSonic Leak Detections
Ultrasonic Leak Detection Services to Find Leaks & Maximize Energy Savings
Ultrasonic Leak Detection is an advanced, non-destructive testing (NDT) method using high-frequency sound waves to identify leaks, friction, and electrical discharges in industrial systems. Ultrasonic testing converts ultrasonic signals into audible sounds and measurable decibel (dB) levels, allowing technicians to identify leaks that are not visible or heard. Ultrasonic testing will enable technicians to quickly and accurately cover the sources of leaks, increasing efficiency, safety, and reliability with negligible interruptions to operations.
At CME, we have deployed handheld ultrasonic devices and trained personnel to perform speedy, safe, and accurate inspections in industrial facilities. Our dedicated leak detection teams reduce operational downtime, increase energy efficiency, and lower costs.
Why Ultrasonic Leak Detection Matters
Leaks are one of the leading causes of wasted energy in the industrial world. Untreated leaks lead to excessive cost, a safety risk, and unplanned downtime.
Energy efficiency
Minimize wasted energy from compressed air, gas, and steam leaks.
Find leaks before equipment failures.
Preventive maintenance
Improved safety
Detect hazardous gas and steam leaks quickly.
Maximize your system efficiency and operations.
Reliable operations
What is Ultrasonic Leak Detection?
Ultrasonic leak detection works by sensing sound waves generated by turbulence at the leak point. Even in noisy industrial environments, ultrasound devices will filter and amplify the ultrasonic signals associated with any leaks.
Applications include:
- Compressed Air Systems - reactors, vessels, piping.
- Vacuum Systems - reactors, vessels, piping.
- Steam Systems - steam traps, condensers, boilers.
- Heat Exchangers & Tubes - leak detection on tubes prior to failure.
- Valves - seat and stem leakage.
- Electrical Systems - leaks associated with arcing, corona discharge, and partial discharge.
