CRYSOUND CRY8125 Advanced Ex Acoustic Imaging Camera
The CRYSOUND CRY8125 Ex acoustic imaging camera gives industrial inspection teams a portable solution for locating gas leaks in hazardous environments. It also detects electrical partial discharge and supports mechanical condition inspections.
CRYSOUND designed the CRY8125 for applications where hazardous-area certification matters. The camera carries TÜV-certified IECEx and ATEX approvals and complies with IEC 60079-0 and IEC 60079-11. Its Ex certification allows use for gas leak detection in Zone 2 explosive gas and dust atmospheres.
A 200-microphone MEMS array combines with a 2 kHz to 100 kHz frequency range for precise acoustic localization. Operators can scan equipment from distances ranging from 0.2 to 200 metres. This range supports faster inspection of piping, process equipment and difficult-to-access assets.
The CRY8125 can locate compressed gas leaks and measure leak rates during an inspection. Under specified conditions, it can detect a 0.0029 L/min leak from 10 metres at 2.7 bar. It also estimates losses in real time, helping maintenance teams evaluate findings and prioritize repairs.
In addition, the camera supports partial discharge detection and type recognition. Maintenance teams can also use acoustic imaging to investigate bearings, conveyors and other mechanical equipment.
The handheld CRY8125 weighs just 1.4 kg and features an 8-inch touchscreen. Its 1920 × 1200 display, 600-nit brightness and 6X digital zoom provide clear viewing during field inspections.
Inspection teams can transfer data using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB-C or microSD. Reporting capabilities then help turn field findings into useful maintenance records.

Product Features
TÜV-Certified Protection for Zone 2 Hazardous Areas
The CRY8125 provides an important advantage for Oil & Gas, natural gas, chemical and other industrial operations. It carries TÜV-certified IECEx and ATEX approvals for use in explosive atmospheres.
The camera meets IEC 60079-0 and IEC 60079-11 requirements. Its Ex marking is II 3 G Ex ic IIC T5 Gc / II 3 D Ex ic IIIC T100°C Dc.
This certification supports gas leak inspections in Zone 2 explosive gas and dust atmospheres. As a result, operators can use acoustic imaging in applications where a standard non-Ex inspection camera may not be appropriate.
200 Microphones for Precise Acoustic Imaging
The CRY8125 uses 200 MEMS microphones to locate and visualize acoustic sources. Its frequency range extends from 2 kHz to 100 kHz.
This combination helps operators find small leaks and partial discharge activity while working from a practical distance. Instead of manually checking individual connections, an operator can scan a wider section of equipment and visually locate the acoustic source.
The CRY8125 supports real-time far-field sound localization. Therefore, maintenance teams can inspect larger process areas more efficiently.
Detect and Measure Compressed Gas Leaks
The CRY8125 detects leaks from compressed, non-volatile gases and provides leak rate measurement. Acoustic imaging helps the operator see where the leak originates on the equipment.
Under specified conditions, the camera can detect a 0.0029 L/min leak at 10 metres and 2.7 bar. At 0.5 metres and 1.9 bar, it can detect a 0.0028 L/min leak.
The system also estimates leak losses in real time. This additional information helps maintenance teams assess the importance of individual findings and prioritize corrective work.
Inspect from Greater Working Distances
The CRY8125 supports inspection distances from 0.2 to 200 metres (1 to 656 feet).
A longer working distance can improve inspection efficiency across large facilities. It also helps when piping or equipment sits overhead or in areas that are difficult to approach.
Because acoustic imaging identifies the direction of the sound source, operators can scan an area before moving closer for additional assessment.
Partial Discharge Detection and Classification
The CRY8125 also supports electrical partial discharge inspections. Operators can identify partial discharge activity and determine its location using acoustic visualization.
The software provides PRPD spectrum analysis and partial discharge type recognition. These capabilities help electrical maintenance teams investigate insulators, switchgear and other electrical assets.
Combining localization and classification within one handheld platform can simplify routine electrical inspection programs.
Support Predictive Mechanical Maintenance
Acoustic changes can provide useful information about rotating and moving equipment. The CRY8125 supports mechanical inspection for predictive maintenance applications involving bearings and conveyors.
Operators can scan equipment for abnormal acoustic activity and document areas requiring further investigation.
This capability allows the same CRY8125 platform to support gas leak surveys, electrical inspections and selected mechanical maintenance tasks.
8-Inch Display Designed for Field Inspection
The CRY8125 features an 8-inch capacitive touchscreen with 1920 × 1200 resolution.
Its 600-nit brightness helps operators view inspection information in bright field conditions. The camera also provides up to 6X digital zoom for closer visual inspection of equipment.
A 13-megapixel camera and 66-degree field of view give the operator a clear view of the surrounding asset while the acoustic image identifies the sound source.
Lightweight Handheld Design
The CRY8125 weighs only 1.4 kg (3 lbs). Its portable design allows an operator to carry it through a facility during inspection routes.
Each replaceable smart battery provides up to five hours of operation. A battery indicator lets operators monitor the remaining charge while working.
This handheld design makes the CRY8125 particularly useful for scheduled leak surveys, troubleshooting and predictive maintenance inspections.
Wireless Connectivity and Data Transfer
The CRY8125 includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless connectivity.
Operators can transfer inspection information to local devices without relying solely on cables. USB-C connections and a microSD card slot provide additional data transfer and storage options.
The camera includes 64 GB of internal storage and supports an additional 64 GB of external microSD storage.
Expand Inspection Capabilities with External Sensors
The CRY8125 provides four analog input channels covering 20 to 100 kHz.
Operators can connect compatible external sensors, including microphones and accelerometers. This capability expands the platform for more complex inspection requirements.
CRYSOUND also offers the IA3104 Contact Ultrasound Sensor for internal leak detection in pipelines and valves.
Reporting Tools Support Maintenance Decisions
The CRY8125 combines image capture, analysis and reporting within one inspection workflow.
Software functions include multi-point imaging, directional focus, distance measurement, leak volume estimation, PRPD spectrum analysis, partial discharge type recognition, picture labelling and report export.
These tools help teams move from detecting an acoustic problem to documenting it for maintenance planning and follow-up.
