Abstract

With the development of the industry, the safety of pressure vessels is crucial for both production and personnel safety. The application of acoustic emission testing technology as a dynamic non-destructive testing method in the detection of pressure vessels is becoming increasingly prevalent. This paper presents the design of a low-frequency acoustic emission preamplifier with a frequency range of 30KHz to 200KHz and a gain of 20dB. The preamplifier is composed of amplification circuits, power supply circuits, and filtering components. By utilizing the PXR04 series high-sensitivity resonant acoustic emission sensor and Texas Instruments' OPA333 operational amplifier, along with a clever power supply design, effective signal amplification and system stability are ensured. Experimental results validate the correctness of the design, providing a feasible and effective solution for enhancing the performance of acoustic emission testing equipment.
