Full description

Basic model: portable heterodyne detection

The basic KMR-361 is a compact ultrasonic receiver for locating and listening to emissions outside normal human hearing. Heterodyne conversion makes the selected signal audible, while the backlit digital display shows the tuned frequency.

An electret microphone covers the specified minimum range of 10–120 kHz. Receiver bandwidth is 8 kHz, or ±4 kHz at −6 dB. Two 3.5 mm outputs support headphones and an external recorder.

The receiver uses one 9 V IEC 6LF22 battery and weighs 150 g with the battery installed. Dimensions are 119 × 60 × 25 mm including the knob. Idle current draw is 17 mA with the LCD backlight included.

Listening-focused field checks

The basic model suits checks where the priority is identifying and listening to ultrasonic activity. Its compact format supports moving between inspection points; recording is handled by an external device connected to the recorder output.

Professional model: acquisition and playback

The professional KMR-361 combines heterodyne operation, divide-by-10 frequency division and a built-in 16-bit CompactFlash recorder. Its specified minimum frequency range is 5–235 kHz, with tuning resolution that changes across the range.

Saved profiles recall sample rate, triggering mode, time-expansion factor and LED intensity. Record the direct ultrasonic signal, heterodyne output or frequency-divided signal without a separate recorder.

Event capture and recording documentation

Record spoken comments during direct acquisition or in a dedicated lower-sample-rate comment mode. Direct recordings can replay automatically with selectable time-expansion factors from 1 to 30.

Start and stop recordings manually or use level-activated triggering with optional frequency selection to capture unexpected events. WAV files include date and time and transfer to a PC through a standard CF-card reader. The optional serial GPS connection supports storing position data in the files.

The professional model runs on five AA batteries, with alkaline or NiMH recommended, or an external 7–10 V DC supply.

Applications

Ultrasonic interference checks

Identify and listen to ultrasonic emissions when investigating interference affecting audio equipment.

Precision-process inspection

Check for ultrasonic activity generated during precision processes and select the frequency of interest for audible monitoring.

Documented field measurements

The professional model records events with spoken notes and timestamps. Optional GPS input adds position data to the files.
