NM01P2
The PARKER P-2 AC Contour Probe is a rugged and high-performance handheld magnetic yoke designed for efficient and reliable surface flaw detection in ferromagnetic materials using the Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) method. Operating on 115 V AC (Alternating Current), this yoke produces a strong, constant AC magnetic field concentrated between its articulating legs (poles).
The Contour Probe design, with its flexible legs, allows the magnetic field to be easily focused on the precise area of inspection, conforming to various surface shapes and sizes, including welds, castings, and machined parts. This makes it exceptionally versatile for a wide range of applications in the lab, factory, or field.
The P-2 model is known for its ergonomic and lightweight design (under 5 lbs), reducing operator fatigue during extended use. Its durable, molded construction ensures reliability in demanding industrial environments. The unit also features an eyelet for convenient hands-free carrying.
This 115 V AC yoke is a popular choice for locating surface-breaking defects such as cracks, inclusions, seams, laps, welding slags, grinding cracks, quenching cracks, and fatigue cracks in ferrous materials. It exceeds ASTM lifting standards, ensuring sufficient magnetic field strength for effective particle attraction and indication formation. The components of the P-2 are also designed to be completely repairable, extending the lifespan of the instrument.
