New acoustic imager for fixed and mobile monitoring

Fluke Process Instruments have recently launched their new SV600 Fixed Acoustic Imager at the Hannover Fair. The new Fixed Acoustic imager enables users to detect, locate and track air or gas leaks before they become costly problems. Using an array of sophisticated sound sensors, a camera and Fluke’s powerful SoundMap technology, SV600 visualizes sounds for asset monitoring, troubleshooting and quality inspection. It easily integrates with factory systems and enables 24/7 monitoring of compressors, pumps, pipes and other equipment with user-defined alarms. Remote evaluation options help minimize operator intervention, thus improving factory safety. Notably, the SV600 acoustic imager has already been integrated, as a payload, in Boston Dynamics’ agile robot Spot for autonomous and remote-controlled surveillance in difficult-to-access or potentially unsafe environments.
