5.0 MHz Dual Element Transducers, 1/2", Hi Damped Hi Temp 900* F, Microdot, Top, Dakota NDT
This Dakota NDT 5.0 MHz Dual Element Transducer is a specialized probe designed for accurate ultrasonic thickness gauging, particularly in challenging applications involving high temperatures. Featuring a 1/2 inch diameter element, this transducer operates at a 5.0 MHz frequency, providing a good balance between penetration and resolution for various materials like steels, glass, and thin plastics.
The "Hi Damped" characteristic indicates that this transducer is designed to produce a cleaner ultrasonic pulse with less ringing. This is beneficial for improved near-surface resolution and for measurements on thinner materials or in applications where interface echoes might be problematic. The "Hi Temp 900°F" designation signifies its ability to withstand intermittent contact with surfaces reaching up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit (482 degrees Celsius), making it suitable for measurements on hot components in various industrial settings.
The transducer is equipped with a Microdot connector for compatibility with a range of Dakota NDT thickness gauges and potentially other instruments with the same connector type. The "Top" connector orientation indicates the cable exits from the top of the transducer housing.
