The T10 structure-borne sound probe can be used to monitor the condition of machines, systems and processes, provided that they generate detectable structure-borne sound in the ultrasonic range. Changes in the sound signals indicate a change in the condition and/or process of the plant. The detection of these changes forms the basis for condition monitoring in preventive maintenance. The T10 structure-borne sound probe is used when the installation space is very limited or the test specimen must not be loaded with a large sensor mass. The T10 structure-borne sound probe is also suitable for use on non-magnetic surfaces.
The type of coupling depends on the type of test. The probe can be coupled by hand for short-term measurements or fixed with beeswax for recurring measurements with recording of measurement data. For permanent monitoring or fixed mounting within a safety cover/zone, the probe is glued on.
