SonaVu+ is an acoustic imaging camera that visualizes sound to detect compressed air, gas, & vacuum leaks, electrical discharges, mechanical anomalies, and more. It combines ultrasonic sensing with a visual display, allowing users to pinpoint issues quickly and from a safe distance. The InSights™ app makes it easy to manage reports, analyze data, and share findings.
Very quickly. SonaVu+ helps identify costly compressed air and gas leaks on day one—often uncovering thousands of dollars in wasted energy. Its ability to detect electrical faults and vacuum leaks adds even more value, making it a cost-saving tool across multiple departments.
Yes. SonaVu+ is designed for fast adoption with minimal training. Its intuitive touchscreen interface and real-time visual feedback make it easy to understand and operate. The companion app, InSights™, simplifies data storage, analysis, and reporting.
SonaVu+ detects compressed air and gas leaks, vacuum leaks, and electrical partial discharge events like corona, tracking, and arcing. Its acoustic imaging capability makes it easy to pinpoint issues from a safe distance, even in noisy environments.
How Acoustic Imaging Camera’s Work
Acoustic imaging cameras use advanced auditory and visual technology to detect and visualize airborne ultrasound produced by system leaks and electrical discharge. SonaVu+, equipped with 112 digital MEMS sensors and a long-distance optical camera, sets a new standard in precision acoustic imaging inspection. Easily locate, report, and repair with the SonaVu+.
Locate and Eliminate Electrical Discharge Before It Causes Downtime or Safety Hazards
Ultrasound is a powerful tool for detecting critical defects in medium and high-voltage electrical systems, including arcing, tracking, partial discharge, and corona. SonaVu+ elevates this capability with long-distance detection, two-finger zoom, and enhanced image quality, enabling reliability professionals to safely pinpoint electrical failures from afar—even in outdoor environments.
Acoustic Imaging Applications
Compressed air, industrial gases, and vacuum systems are critical to many industrial processes. But leaks are inevitable—and expensive. SonaVu+™ quickly scans large areas to detect and visualize leaks allowing teams to tag and repair them fast.
When electrical systems fail, nothing else matters. Recent changes to NFPA70B mandate the use of predictive maintenance inspection on all electrically charged systems. Ultrasound’s ability to detect a wide range of defects in their early stages is why it is outlined by the NFPA as an inspection technology.
Undetected fugitive emissions pose serious environmental, safety, and compliance risks. SonaVu+™ enables maintenance teams to visually pinpoint gas leaks, helping industries reduce greenhouse gas emissions, stay compliant with regulations, and meet corporate sustainability goals.
Bearing failures, steam trap malfunctions, and valve leaks all generate ultrasonic signatures long before visible damage occurs. With SonaVu+™, teams can detect frictional, impacting, and turbulence related anomalies, allowing for early intervention and extended asset life.
Finding & Fixing Leaks Cuts Costs & Boosts Reliability
Compressed air leaks are more than just a nuisance—they’re a costly waste of resources. Systems left unchecked for over a year can lose 35-40% of total air demand to leaks, driving up electricity use and shortening compressor lifespan. With energy costs making up 75% of total compressed air expenses, every leak drains your budget. Detecting and repairing leaks isn’t optional—it’s key to cutting waste, lowering costs, and improving efficiency.

SonaVu+ On-Board Analysis for Smarter Diagnostics
The SonaVu+ goes beyond detection with on-board PRPD (Phase-Resolved Partial Discharge) Analysis, diagnosing electrical faults by analyzing their unique high-frequency ultrasound patterns. This advanced capability helps prevent failures, improve safety, and optimize asset reliability.
In addition to pinpointing faults visually, SonaVu+ provides a decibel reading to assess severity and an audio output, allowing technicians to listen to defects in real time. This combination of visual, numerical, and auditory data enables users to distinguish between fault types, adding a layer of human expertise to the analysis process for more informed decision-making.
SonaVu InSights
SonaVu InSights™ is a powerful, browser-based application that seamlessly integrates with the SonaVu+ Acoustic Imaging Camera, serving as a central hub for ultrasound and acoustic imaging data. It enables maintenance and reliability teams to document findings, prioritize repairs, estimate cost impact, and generate instant reports for compressed air leak and electrical asset surveys.
More than just a reporting tool, InSights™ empowers organizations to act—eliminating energy waste, reducing costs, and improving asset reliability. By transforming raw data into actionable insights, it helps teams make informed decisions, ensuring efficient and cost-effective maintenance strategies.
