CMOS cameras have the potential for higher frame rates, as the process of reading out each pixel can be done more quickly than with the charge transfer in a CCD sensor’s shift register.

SonaVu™ is a multi-frequency acoustic imaging camera that takes airborne ultrasound inspection to an entirely new level. Equipped with 112 highly sensitive sonic sensors and a precision optical camera, SonaVu™ brings the power of super-human hearing to focus on its vibrant, color touch screen. It unlocks limitless applications for asset reliability, energy conservation, and safety including compressed air leak management, electrical asset reliability, tightness control of large volumes, and much more.

Enhance electrical asset reliability with SonaVu™... Powered by SDT, an acoustic imaging camera that brings sound into focus

Unreliable electric assets cost millions in downtime and repairs; and… they have the potential to maim and kill. Detect symptoms of insulation failure, a primary cause of outages, with SonaVu™.
Hear more about acoustic imaging for reliable electrical assets

Ultrasound is created when assets produce either Friction, Impacting, or Turbulence (FIT). There are healthy levels of FIT, but these can quickly become unhealthy as defects worsen. Compressed air leaks, vacuum leaks, gas leaks, partial discharge, fugitive emissions, squeaking, rattling, and rubbing, are just a few sources of airborne ultrasound detectable with SonaVu™ PRO.

SonaVu™ enhances routine inspections by creating a visual link to sources of FIT. It acoustically locates defects them from a safe distance while capturing their location visually in image or video format. For further precision and tagging, use the SDT LEAKChecker for pinpointing.

Safely detect fugitive emissions with SonaVu™... Powered by SDT, an acoustic imaging camera that allows you to visualize sound

Fugitive emission of gas and vapor from pressurized systems carry an economic cost to the producer, while contributing to global pollution. Identify their source from a safe distance with SonaVu™.
