Morphology

ultrasonic + pulse + analyzer

Each component contributes transparently: 'ultrasonic' (high-frequency sound), 'pulse' (brief signal), and 'analyzer' (device that analyzes), so a learner who knows those words can infer this is a device that analyzes high-frequency pulses. This is a standard technical noun-compounding pattern found across languages, so the overall meaning is compositional and predictable.

Etymology

Ultrasonic pulse analyzer comes from the machine's parts: ultrasonic means 'very high sound' we cannot hear, pulse means a 'short burst' of that sound, and analyzer is the part that listens to echoes. So the image is a device that sends tiny sound bursts into concrete and checks what comes back to find hidden cracks and measure strength, which is why the name means a tool for testing concrete.
