Stethoscopes
Listen to machine performance to detect mechanical problems and leaks.
Stethoscopes with a funnel probe are good for detecting noise from vacuum, air, and exhaust leaks.
Stethoscopes with a magnetic probe attachment can be used hands-free.
Noise-Filtering Stethoscopes
Isolate individual sounds during inspections. These stethoscopes amplify internal sounds so they’re loud enough to hear, while the included set of headphones filters out background noise for clarity. They’re often used to detect mechanical problems and leaks. Reach the included probe into the area you’re inspecting for precise listening. All include either multiple probes or a probe extension for hard-to-reach areas.
Dial display stethoscopes are commonly used in vehicles to help identify issues such as worn bearings, broken gear teeth, and wind and air leaks. Set their sensitivity to match your environment using the high/low switch. High sensitivity will better detect quiet sounds but might be too reactive in loud environments. Low sensitivity is a better choice for noisy environments, since loud sounds can damage your hearing when further amplified.
Digital display stethoscopes are an upgrade from those with a dial display. Designed for sophisticated machinery, they’re often used to inspect precision bearings. A user-friendly screen makes it easy to operate these stethoscopes with no special training. Volume levels are displayed both in digits and graphs so you can accurately compare across multiple measurements. An output jack lets you connect a recording device to document sounds, so you can play back noises to track progress and confirm issues are resolved. They come with recorded example noises to teach you the sounds of both functioning parts and specific problems—a damaged outer ring, for example—so you can pinpoint issues before opening your equipment.

Noise-Filtering Stethoscopes with Microphone Clamps
Attach microphones to different spots on running machines or vehicles to amplify squeaks, knocking, and rattling from worn parts. To help you isolate sounds, these stethoscopes come with headphones that reduce background noise.
Stethoscopes with a dial control connect to six microphone clamps with color-coded wire leads. Turn the dial to listen to each one in turn, so you can pinpoint the source of a sound.
Stethoscopes with a touch screen control let you select and mute each microphone on a bright LCD screen. They include both color-coded wireless transmitters and microphone clamps—you can mount them separately to listen in on hard-to-reach spots.

Vibration Meters with Stethoscopes
In addition to measuring vibration, you can listen to and record machine performance. The magnetic base allows you to mount the probe on a machine for constant readings.

Acoustic Imaging Gas Leak Detectors
Locate leaks up to 10 times faster than traditional leak-detecting methods. These detectors use 124 microphones to determine the precise location and size of leaks in compressed air and specific gas systems. The screen displays a high-resolution acoustic image that’s overlaid on a digital live shot of your facility to help you visualize the leak. It also displays analytics related to the leak, such as the rate and the potential cost savings of patching your system. You can capture the on-screen view through photos and video to review later. With a built-in flashlight, they remain accurate even in low-light spaces. Light enough to carry with one hand, you can bring these detectors on the go. A 650 ft. range means you can use them from one end of your facility to another, or to detect in hard-to-reach systems.
Connect the detector to your computer using Wi-Fi or the included USB cable to quickly transfer collected data.

Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detectors
This detector converts ultrasonic waves to an audible sound so you can find leaks. Unlike typical leak detectors, this unit doesn’t rely only on the presence of a gas to work, making it suitable for a wider range of applications. In addition to gas leaks, it identifies ultrasonic sound caused by failing solenoids, valves, and bearings.
For systems under 10 psi, use the optional ultrasonic sound generator.
Import regulations restrict sales to the listed areas.
