The JIREH Corrosion Actuated Probe Lift is a specialized accessory designed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of ultrasonic testing (UT) inspections, particularly in applications involving corrosion mapping and monitoring on potentially uneven or corroded surfaces. This device provides a controlled and consistent mechanism for lifting and repositioning ultrasonic probes, ensuring optimal data acquisition and minimizing the risk of damage to the probe or the inspection surface.  

Engineered for robustness and durability in challenging environments, the Corrosion Actuated Probe Lift features a flat wear plate at its base. This wear plate, likely constructed from a durable and low-friction material, allows the probe lift to glide smoothly across the inspection surface, even if it is rough, scaled, or exhibits moderate corrosion. The flat design is best suited for use on relatively flat or gently contoured surfaces.

The probe lift incorporates a 19 mm (0.75 in) receptacle diameter, designed to securely hold and interface with a wide range of standard ultrasonic probes or probe holders with a corresponding diameter. This standardized receptacle ensures versatility and compatibility with various UT transducers used in corrosion assessment.  

An integral 0.4 m auxiliary cable (approximately 15.7 inches) is included with the probe lift. This cable likely provides power to an internal actuation mechanism, enabling the controlled lifting and lowering of the ultrasonic probe. The actuation mechanism is specifically designed to function reliably even in the presence of corrosion or surface irregularities, hence the "Corrosion Actuated" designation. This suggests a robust design capable of overcoming potential friction or binding caused by surface conditions.

Manufactured by JIREH, a recognized leader in remote inspection technologies, this Corrosion Actuated Probe Lift is a valuable tool for automating or semi-automating ultrasonic corrosion mapping processes. It helps to maintain consistent probe pressure and coupling, reduces operator fatigue during long scans, and improves the repeatability and accuracy of corrosion data.
