Operation of the device, sensor system and apps
3.5.5 Accessories for structure-borne sound & temperature sensor DBS20
The intensity and behavior of ultrasonic signals depend, among other things, on the process
during which they are created. The abilities to detect, record and provide signals in high quality
for the users so that meaningful statements can be made about system conditions also depend
on a number of factors.
The user has probe tips for various measurement tasks in order to record the signals in high
quality for processing in the structure-borne sound and temperature sensor DBS20.
Please observe the application areas of the accessories and the associated information for
optimal results.
Long probe tip DBS20-5
Accessories for structure-borne sound and
temperature sensor DBS20
Application:
Measurements in difficult-to-reach places.
The probe tip that is longer compared to the DBS-20-1 also reaches measurement locations
that are more difficult to access. In addition, the long probe tip makes it possible to carry out
measurements on hot surfaces. The slightly altered signals due to the longer sound path must
be taken into consideration during the evaluation.
Magnetic adapter DBS20-3
Accessories for structure-borne sound and
temperature sensor DBS20
Application:
For coupling at the measurement location for long-term
measurements and for ensuring a uniform contact
pressure.
A uniform contact pressure is required to achieve usable measurement results for long-term
measurements or comparative measurements. The magnetic adapter is available for this use.
After being coupled to the measurement location, the magnetic coupling ensures a uniform
recording of the ultrasonic signals.
