The Dakota Ultrasonics 2.25 MHz Dual Element Transducer is a specialized probe featuring a 1/4 inch diameter, High Damping (HD) characteristics, a durable potted connector, and a convenient side cable exit. This transducer is designed for accurate ultrasonic thickness measurements in applications where improved near-surface resolution and the ability to measure through coatings or on rough surfaces are beneficial.  

The 2.25 MHz frequency offers a good balance between penetration capability and resolution for a variety of materials and thickness ranges. The dual element design, with separate transmitting and receiving crystals, significantly enhances performance in challenging applications by improving signal-to-noise ratio, minimizing the effects of surface conditions, and providing better near-surface resolution compared to single element transducers.  

The High Damping (HD) characteristic further enhances the transducer's ability to produce short, clean pulses, leading to improved resolution, particularly when measuring thin materials or through coatings. The potted connector ensures a robust and sealed connection, while the side cable exit offers a practical cable orientation for many inspection setups.
