- Key Products/Technologies
- The primary product lines include Acoustic Ultrasound Listening Devices (ULDs) and Ultrasound Reliability-Centered Maintenance solutions. A flagship product, the CTRL UL101 Ultrasound Receiver, specializes in detecting mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and electrical issues. This receiver converts ultrasound into audible sounds, enabling problem diagnosis even in noisy industrial environments. The UL101 features a handheld design for portability and operates for over 45 hours continuously on a 9V battery. The PowerBeam 300 parabolic accessory extends the detection range up to 91.44 meters (300 feet) with a 1-degree accuracy for sound source pinpointing. Additionally, it offers non-pressurized system seal and gasket defect detection when used with the UT2000 Universal Transmitter. The company provides real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and trend analysis capabilities through its cloud-based InCTRL platform and mobile applications. A wide range of inspection capabilities is possible with various attachments like acoustic probes, concentrators, and extension probes.The primary product lines include Acoustic Ultrasound Listening Devices (ULDs) and Ultrasound Reliability-Centered Maintenance solutions.
