Industrial Acoustic Imaging and Leak Testing

Using the Fluke ii915 Acoustic Imager, we accurately locate and quantify air, gas, and vacuum leaks, as well as detect partial discharges such as corona discharge and tracking in electrical systems and mechanical degradation in their respective equipment.

In the world of industrial maintenance, finding compressed air and gas leaks quickly and accurately can significantly reduce energy costs and improve safety. Traditional methods like soap and water, or manual ultrasonic detectors, often fall short—either too slow or too limited in scope. This is where acoustic imaging technology, specifically the Fluke ii915 Acoustic Imager.

What Is Industrial Acoustic Imaging?

Industrial acoustic imaging is a non-contact method of detecting sound waves generated by gas or air leaks, partial discharges, and mechanical faults. Using an array of microphones and advanced algorithms, these devices translate sound into a visual map, even in loud environments. Leaks that were once inaudible or hard to pinpoint become instantly visible—saving time, energy, and money.

Meet the Fluke ii915 Acoustic Imager

The Fluke ii915 is a rugged, handheld acoustic imaging device designed for compressed air, gas, vacuum, and electrical leak detection. Key features include:

  • Advanced SoundSight™ Technology – Converts sounds into clear, high-resolution acoustic images.

  • Frequency Range – 2 kHz to 100 kHz, allowing it to detect both low- and high-frequency leaks.

  • Microphone Array – 64 microphones for accurate directional sound detection.

  • Live Leak Location – Pinpoints the exact source of a leak in real time, even in noisy environments.

  • Image and Video Capture – Supports documentation and trend analysis with built-in storage.

Applications in Industry

The ii915 is particularly useful in:

  • Compressed Air Leak Detection – Minimize waste and reduce energy bills in manufacturing plants.

  • Vacuum Leak Testing – Essential for cleanroom and semiconductor environments.

  • Electrical Partial Discharge Monitoring – Identify issues before they result in costly downtime.

  • Predictive Maintenance – Enhance equipment reliability and extend asset life.

Energy audits consistently show that 20–30% of compressed air is lost to leaks. Identifying and repairing those leaks with tools like the Fluke ii915 can lead to immediate savings, improved operational efficiency, and enhanced safety—all without shutting down operations.
