Certification Prerequisite:
- You must have six months of experience generally associated with maintenance, reliability, and ultrasound testing. You will be asked to nominate an independent person who can verify that you have that experience.
- Pass a hearing test prior to the course*
*As per the requirements of ISO 18436-8, candidates should be given hearing examinations to ensure natural or corrected hearing acuity exists in at least one ear. A record of the results should be retained and presented to MIBoC upon request. The individual should be capable of hearing a standard pure tone in an audiometry exam with results of an average of 25 dB hearing level or lower. This examination should be administered upon initial certification and upon renewal, be administered by a licensed professional, and a record of the test made available to MIBoC upon request.
- Candidates who do not provide a record of passing the hearing test will receive conditional certification under which it becomes the responsibility of their employer to assess the candidate’s hearing acuity and their suitability to perform ultrasound data collection and/or analysis. This condition of certification will be noted on the candidate’s certificate.
Outcomes:
You will be able to collect ultrasound data to detect fault conditions in rotating machinery, electrical equipment, and a host of other equipment including valves, hydraulics, steam traps, and more. Detect leaks in compressed air and steam systems and grease and lubricate bearings with precision. Certification is valid for 5 years.
