Cavitation Monitor
Complete solution for monitoring cavitation incorporating acquisition and analysis for instant detection, visualisation and monitoring of both inertial and non-inertial cavitation.
Overview
The complete, ready-to-use cavitation monitoring solution designed for industrial monitoring and research applications. Comprising a robust and compact control box with a range of interchangeable sensors, the Precision Acoustics cavitation monitor can be used to monitor and log cavitation in a variety of situations. A user-interface with highly visible red/green cavitation indicators for industrial monitoring combined with a status logging function allows for easy remote monitoring whilst the research mode with analysis of harmonic bands and spectral amplitude over the 20kHz to 20 MHz range provides real-time insight into the nature of the cavitation.

* The built-in cavitation assessment is intended as a guide and should not be considered as a definitive analysis. It is possible to configure the analysis such that cavitation is reported when none is present or vice versa. The cavitation monitor is not a substitute for routine inspection and maintenance.
