A comprehensive acoustic data acquisition system used for the detection of internal valve and trap leaks in harsh industrial testing environments.
A Multi-Purpose Technology
To Empower Professionals
Plant/Maintenance Professionals
Maximize profits by optimizing production uptime, improving operational efficiency, enhancing asset lifespan, and increasing overall reliability.
Maintenance Planners
Enhance maintenance scheduling and reduce unplanned downtime through proactive maintenance planning.
Engineering
Identify efficiency losses and evaluate valve reliability and safety through condition-based valve and trap monitoring. Minimize downtime and ensure asset longevity.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
Acquire real-time data and troubleshoot valve health issues that may impact system anomalies. Improve NDT workflows and streamline data acquisition while communicating testing results with build-in reporting.
Advanced Capabilities
The WAVE uses Acoustic Emission (AE) principles to identify leaking valves and poorly functioning traps. Its unique features easily adapt to numerous testing environments and allow the user to:
Test different processes (steam, condensate, compressed gas, slurry, etc.)
Access 160+ operations approved test plans ensuring no production interruptions while focusing on safety
Acquire and display data instantaneously
Save and view acoustic valve signatures across a wide frequency range
Distinguish between leaking valve noise and background noise
Compare historical data to identify chronic issues
Set data point references allowing analysis between similar valves
Multiple Applications
The WAVE adapts to a variety of testing environments providing testing and analysis solutions in multiple process applications.
