UL101
ULTRASOUND DETECTOR
CTRL UL101
The CTRL UL101 detects and converts ultrasound produced by mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and electrical systems. Changes in the amplitude and characteristics of the ultrasound are easily detected in noisy plant environments. Leaks are easily pinpointed. Equipment problems are diagnosed even earlier than other technologies such as vibration, infrared inspection, or oil analysis.
Benefits of UL101
Ease-of-use
Simply adjust the sensitivity on the UL101 to pinpoint the sound; scan areas from up to 300 feet away with the PowerBeam 300 parabolic accessory.
Directionality
Ultrasound travels in linear paths and doesn't tend to travel around corners or reflect. Using CTRL’s acoustic ultrasound listening products, leaks are not easily masked.
Sensitivity
The UL101 is the most sensitive ultrasound detector on the market. Find leaks below 2 psi. Diagnose slow speed bearings below 10 rpms.
Costs
CTRL’s UL101 products are priced competitively compared to industry leaders, require less training, and are faster to use.
