Ultrasonic sensors and arc welding – a noisy mix

Teodiano Bastos-Filho, L. Calderón, José Miguel Martín Martín, R. Ceres · Sensor Review · 1996

Evaluates the applicability of ultrasonic sensors in a welding environment and reports on experimental measurements carried out with a sensory head containing ultrasonic transducers with different frequencies. Analyses the effects on the sensors of factors such as noise, temperature and shielding gas flow and concludes by suggesting appropriate protective measures for the sensors for them to operate effectively in a welding environment.
