    IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, and to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death. Improper use of your ultrasonic detector may result in death or serious injury. Observe all safety precautions.
  • Page 5: Getting Started

    Getting Started 1.1 Product Overview About The 850S The 850s is a modern ultrasound sensor and transmitter with state-of-the-art onboard data processing designed to detect early onset failures in industrial equipment. The 850s works in tandem with existing plant automation and measurement applications, providing the hardware required to detect changes in ultrasonic amplitude resulting from the degradation of equipment.

    2. Orifice Size The more the restriction of a fluid, less amplitude generated. A smaller diameter hole will not produce as much sound as a larger hole under similar flow conditions. 3. Pressure Differential Given identical leak sizes, when there is a greater pressure difference between the upstream and downstream sides, the leak with the greater difference will produce a louder signal.
  • Page 11: Sensor Placement And Installation

    Sensor Placement and Installation 2.1 Primary Considerations Bearing Proximity Place the sensor directly on the machine housing as close as possible to where the bearing is located for the most direct path of sound and vibration transmission. Placing the sensor as close as possible to the centerline of the bearing can also be considered to further optimize the signal coming directly from the bearings and avoid any potential distortion.
  • Page 12: Additional Considerations

    2.2 Additional Considerations Competing Sounds Whenever possible the sensor should be placed in locations that best isolate it from other sounds, both internal and external to the machine, that could hamper consistent monitoring of the bearing. A common example would be the increased electrical related sounds that can be heard the closer the sensor is placed to an electric motor’s wire termination junction box.

    Thread the sensor onto the stud. 2.4.2 Alternative: Fin Mount When a good spot to mount the sensor is not available, UE systems’ Motor Fin Mounts may be the perfect solution. selecting the proper Motor Fin Mount is accomplished by measuring the depth and width of the cooling fins where you want to locate the remote ultrasound sensor.
