7.5 MHz Dual Element Transducers, 1/4" , Potted, Side, Dakota NDT
The Dakota NDT 7.5 MHz Dual Element Transducer is a versatile ultrasonic transducer featuring a 1/4 inch diameter element, a durable potted cable, and a convenient side cable entry. This transducer operates at a frequency of 7.5 MHz, providing a balanced combination of penetration and resolution suitable for a wide range of material testing applications.
The dual element design incorporates separate transmitting and receiving crystals that are internally angled to optimize the focus of the ultrasonic beam in the near-surface region. This configuration enhances the detection of small defects and improves the accuracy of thickness measurements, particularly in challenging materials or at elevated temperatures (depending on the specific model's temperature rating). The potted cable ensures a robust and environmentally sealed connection, guaranteeing reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. The side-entry cable configuration is a practical design that keeps the cable neatly routed during scanning procedures.
