A car manufacturer in Malaysia once had a noise problem. When the engine was running they could hear an outstanding noise that was indicative of a potential problem.
They called a vendor to do a noise measurement to try to pinpoint the source of the noise. However, the vendor could only check the noise level with a noise meter. The source of the undesirable noise could not be narrowed down.
This vendor happened to be a customer so asked for suggestions on what to do. I recommended them to use an acoustic camera. At that time the acoustic camera from the company that first invented it for the mass market cost more than $100K and was out of their budget.
Since that time more acoustic imagers have come on to the market that cost a fraction of the price of the original acoustic camera. For example, the KM V1 Acoustic Imaging Camera is super affordable (when compared to other well known brands) and suitable for the following applications :-
Gas Leakage Detection: Precisely identifies and visualizes gas leaks for efficient troubleshooting
Partial Discharge Detection: Enables accurate detection of electrical discharge issues to ensure equipment safety and performance
Noise Source Localization: Pinpoints and visualizes noise sources, making it invaluable for diagnosing complex acoustic problems
The KM Instruments KMV1 is a cutting-edge device designed to deliver precise and high-quality acoustic imaging, transforming how inspections and measurements are conducted.

This advanced tool offers a range of exceptional features that distinguish it from other imaging solutions on the market. Its compact and portable design makes it highly convenient for fieldwork or on-site inspections. Leveraging innovative technology, the camera is capable of detecting even the smallest variations in sound waves, ensuring unmatched precision and reliability.
Built to serve various industries, the KM V1 Acoustic Imaging Camera is a versatile device designed to provide long-lasting value and efficiency. For more information please send your enquiry to sales@vibration.company.
