Sonatest PRISMA UT plus TOFD & Phased Array Flaw Detector (16:64 Configuration)
The Sonatest PRISMA UT plus TOFD & Phased Array Flaw Detector represents the pinnacle of portable ultrasonic inspection technology. This versatile instrument integrates conventional UT, advanced Time-of-Flight Diffraction (TOFD), and powerful 16:64 phased array capabilities into a single, rugged, and intuitive device. Designed for NDT professionals requiring precision, efficiency, and comprehensive data acquisition, the PRISMA is an all-in-one solution for a wide array of critical inspections in industries such as oil & gas, aerospace, power generation, and manufacturing.
Key Features & Benefits:
Multi-Technology Integration: Seamlessly switches between Conventional UT (2 channels), TOFD (2 channels), and Phased Array (16:64 configuration), providing the flexibility to choose the optimal technique or combine them for enhanced Probability of Detection (POD) and flaw characterization.
Powerful 16:64 Phased Array:
16 Transmit/Receive Channels: Allows for advanced beam steering, focusing, and electronic scanning with probes up to 64 elements.
128 Focal Laws: Enables complex inspection strategies, including sectorial scans (S-scans), linear scans (L-scans), and compound scans for various geometries.
High-Resolution Imaging: Generates real-time A, B, C, L, S-Scans, and true TOP & END views, providing detailed visualization of defects.
Dedicated TOFD Capabilities: Offers precise sizing of flaws, including through-wall defects, using hyperbolic cursors and B-scan displays, enhancing the accuracy of defect assessment.
Robust & Portable Design:
IP66 Rated: Fully sealed against fine dust and powerful water jets, making it suitable for harsh field conditions.
Rugged Enclosure: Constructed with a rigid, shock-mounted internal chassis and impact-absorbing external casing.
Lightweight: Weighs only 3.5 kg (7.7 lbs) with battery, making it highly portable.
Long Battery Life: Features an intelligent Li-ion battery providing typical operation of 7 hours in UT mode and 6 hours in PA mode.
Intuitive User Interface (UI): Features a 10.2-inch (or 8.4-inch depending on exact version) wide aspect ratio TFT LCD with 1024x600 pixels (or 800x600 pixels) and 280k colors, offering clear data visualization. The "Parameter Genius" and common UI minimize training time.
Advanced Data Management:
Full Raw Data Recording: Allows for comprehensive post-inspection analysis and re-interpretation.
Internal 6 GB Storage (Standard): Expandable via hot-removable USB (8GB standard USB stick included).
UTstudio+ Software: For fast and dynamic reporting, customized imaging layouts, and data traceability.
Connectivity: Includes USB Master ports (x3) and Ethernet (100 Mbps) for data transfer and communication. Optional Wi-Fi and Xpair Cloud remote access.
Wide Application Range: Ideal for weld inspection (composite, complex geometry), corrosion mapping, composite material inspection, and general flaw detection in critical components.
