Fluke ii500 Acoustic Imager with LeakQ™: Detect, Locate, and Capture Gas Leaks
The Fluke ii500 Acoustic Imager, equipped with LeakQ™ technology, empowers maintenance teams to detect and locate gas leaks efficiently. Designed for ease of use, it requires no specialized training. Even during peak production periods, teams can effectively identify gas and vacuum leaks. The ii500's advanced acoustic leak detection technology isolates leak sound frequencies, making leaks visible even in noisy environments.
Key Features:
- Ready-to-Use: The Fluke ii500 is ready out of the box. Its rugged, ergonomic design ensures easy handling, while the large 7" LCD display allows for clear leak visualization.
- Quick Detection: Even users with minimal experience can start detecting leaks within minutes. The tool estimates relative leak size and cost, incorporating a new distance-estimation feature and the 1-10 LeakQ™ severity index.
- SoundMap™ Overlay: The 7" LCD touchscreen overlays a SoundMap™ on visual images, facilitating rapid leak location identification.
- Intuitive Interface: Easily isolate leak sound frequencies and filter out background noise.
- Tagging and Organization: Use image and video tagging, annotation, and folders for efficient organization.
- Leak Sizing: Prioritize repairs based on relative leak size.
- Collaboration: The reporting tool allows sharing of visuals, tagging, and notes with team members and repair personnel.
Visualizing Sound
The Fluke ii500 Acoustic Imager visualizes sounds from small leaks in compressed air, gas, and vacuum systems. Its array of microphones provides an expanded field of view. Designed explicitly for noisy production facilities, the Fluke ii500 Industrial Acoustic Imager (Sonic Industrial Imager) features SoundSight™ technology, which is simple to learn and implement.
