Precision Phased Array for Complex Inspections: ULSO 5L32-0.6×10-A31-P-2.5m-OM Probe

Unlock unparalleled precision and efficiency in your ultrasonic testing with the ULSO 5L32-0.6×10-A31-P-2.5m-OM Standard Phased Array Probe. This high-performance 5 MHz linear array transducer is meticulously designed for a broad spectrum of advanced NDT applications, offering superior beam control, comprehensive coverage, and reliable defect characterization for critical components, especially where a compact connector profile is beneficial.

Key Specifications and Performance Advantages:

• 5 MHz Operating Frequency: Provides an excellent balance of penetration and sensitivity, making it highly effective for detecting small flaws in a wide range of materials and thicknesses, including both fine-grained and moderately attenuative materials.

• Linear Array with 32 Elements: Features a 32-element linear array configuration, allowing for:

  • Electronic Beam Steering and Focusing: Rapidly change beam angles and focal depths without physically moving or changing probes. This dramatically speeds up inspections and improves defect detection.

  • High-Resolution B and C-Scans: Generate detailed two-dimensional and three-dimensional representations of the inspected volume, enhancing flaw visualization and sizing.

• 0.6 mm Element Pitch: The fine 0.6 mm element pitch ensures excellent spatial resolution and beam steering capabilities, crucial for precisely locating and characterizing small, closely spaced indications.

• 10 mm Elevation: The 10 mm elevation (aperture height) provides a well-defined beam profile, contributing to optimal signal-to-noise ratio and consistent inspection coverage across the scan path.

• 32x0.6mm Total Active Aperture: This translates to a total active aperture length of 19.2mm (32 elements * 0.6mm/element), providing substantial inspection coverage in a single scan path and contributing to strong signal reception.

• A31 Case Type: Utilizes a standard A31 case, which is often a more compact or slimline design compared to larger cases, offering better access in restricted areas while maintaining robust protection for the array. The "P" in the model number often indicates a specific connector orientation (e.g., perpendicular) or a slim profile.

• 2.5-Meter Cable Length: The 2.5-meter (approximately 8.2 feet) cable provides a practical balance between reach and maneuverability, ideal for many benchtop or moderate-distance field inspection setups, minimizing cable clutter.

• Impedance Matching to Rexolite: This probe is specifically impedance-matched to Rexolite wedges. This critical feature ensures optimal acoustic energy transfer between the probe and Rexolite material, minimizing signal loss and maximizing sensitivity and signal integrity, especially vital for accurate beam refraction.

• Durable PVC Sheathing: The cable is protected by rugged PVC sheathing, offering excellent resistance to abrasion, oils, chemicals, and environmental factors commonly encountered in industrial settings, ensuring long-term durability.

• Reliable Iplex Connector: Equipped with an Iplex connector, ensuring a secure and reliable connection to a wide range of phased array ultrasonic flaw detectors and acquisition systems.

Ideal Applications:

The ULSO 5L32-0.6×10-A31-P-2.5m-OM probe is a versatile choice for demanding NDT applications, including:

• Weld Inspection: Comprehensive examination of various weld types, including butt welds, fillet welds, and complex geometries, particularly where access may be slightly constrained.

• Corrosion Mapping: High-speed and accurate mapping of wall thickness and corrosion damage.

• Crack Detection and Sizing: Precise detection and characterization of fatigue cracks, stress corrosion cracking, and other critical discontinuities.

• Material Characterization: Inspection of plates, pipes, forgings, and castings in industries such as oil & gas, power generation, aerospace, and manufacturing.

Invest in the ULSO 5L32-0.6×10-A31-P-2.5m-OM Phased Array Probe to enhance your inspection capabilities with superior beam control, high-resolution data, and unmatched efficiency.
