There is described a diagnosis method and system comprising a sensor for structure-borne noise which emits a measuring signal in a bandwidth-filtered manner due to its mechanical resonant frequency, its capacity and an inductance. The system also comprises an evaluation device in which the measuring signal is subsampled measuring signal exceeds a defined threshold value. The system requires only a small number of electronic components and only little power supply capacity, thereby allowing diagnosis to be carried out without complication in existing devices, especially in field devices of process instrumentation for which only a limited amount of operating power is available. The method and system are especially advantageous for the recognition of valve leakage with an electropneumatic position controller.
