Instruments for Water Leak Detection

Stethophon® 04
Compact listening device for detecting water leaks

Stethophon® 04 is an electronic listening device for recording and amplifying structure-born sound oscillations of whatever kind. The new oscillation sensor ensures undistorted sound reproduction even when the noise is barely audible.
The filter adjusts the sound emission of the device to the hearing properties of the users. At the same time, certain sounds are noticeably emphasised (e.g. deep-pitched sounds of plastic tubes, high-pitched sounds of steel pipes).
The operator hearing protection function automatically ensures that the headphone is muted when loud noises suddenly arise. To simplify localization, the digital display enables the sound intensity at a number of monitoring points to be objectively compared.
