The Sonatest X5A-5M16E-1x16-SQX2.5 is a high-performance medium-sized phased array probe from the X5 Series, specifically designed to address challenging inspection requirements including AWS weld inspections, applications involving high temperatures, and scenarios demanding deep penetration.
This probe features a center frequency of 5 MHz with a 1x16 element configuration. This means it has 1 row of 16 individual elements, each with a size of 1mm x 16mm. The SQX2.5 likely refers to the Quick I-PEX (IPEX) connector type and a 2.5-meter cable length, ensuring a secure and reliable connection to compatible Sonatest instruments.
The X5 Series is known for its robust construction and ability to deliver reliable results in demanding conditions. The specific characteristics of this probe make it well-suited for applications where a balance of penetration and resolution is needed, along with the ability to inspect materials at higher temperatures or through thicker sections.
