Less complex probes are also well suited for rapid inspection or localization of partial discharges. These probes are very easy to use and quickly produce high-quality information. Probes are also a cost-effective alternative when a quantitatively precise determination of the apparent charge is not required. The ohv diagnostic ULTRADETECT probe allows users to acoustically localize a defect source based upon the physical properties of partial discharge events.

Overview

• • Sniff out electrical partial discharges such as corona, tracking orarcs by detecting the emitted ultrasound of the discharges
• • Avoid insulation breakdown damage by early recognition of criticalfailures
• • Detection independent of light and weather conditions, no hot spots necessary to find failures
• • Easy to use, quicks etup
• • Small and lightweight, probe fits in a pocket
• • Contains airborne sensor and parabolic mirror, other sensors available on request
• • Acoustic level is displayed on LCD and audible with headphones
• • Automatic power-off function, indicator for battery changing
• • Applicable for various more tasks such as leak detection, valve or bearing inspection
