4.3.3 Measuring Ultrasonic with the UltraDish
The UltraDish provides a means of detecting discharge sources at a distance. It comprises a transparent
parabolic reflector that focuses the ultrasonic sound on to a sensor mounted at the focus point of the reflector.
The UltraDish gives an effective increase in gain compared to the built-in sensor allowing discharges to be
detected at much greater distances such as insulator strings on overhead assets.
The UltraDish is aimed at the point of interest with either the optical sight or by switching on the laser pointer
with the button on the handle.
UltraDish
Due to the gain of the UltraDish, readings taken with the UltraDish cannot be compared to readings taken
with the Internal Sensor, the Flexible Sensor or the Contact Probe.
