The Dakota Ultrasonics UMX-2 Underwater Thickness Gauge is a robust and versatile instrument specifically designed for accurate material thickness measurements in underwater environments, boasting an impressive depth rating of 1000 feet (300 meters). This gauge offers advanced features and multiple measuring modes to tackle a wide range of inspection tasks below the surface.
The UMX-2 provides flexibility with optional dual or single membrane probes, catering to different application needs. It features automatic probe recognition and zeroing, simplifying setup and ensuring accurate initial calibration.
This gauge is equipped with a comprehensive suite of measuring modes:
Dual - P-E (Pulse-Echo): Ideal for general thickness measurements and detection of pits and flaws.
Dual - E-E (Echo-Echo): Enables accurate thickness measurements through coatings without needing to remove them (Thru-Paint).
Dual - PECT (Pulse Echo Coating Thickness): Simultaneously measures coating thickness, base material thickness, and detects pits and flaws.
Single - Triple Echo (TCG - Time Corrected Gain): Optimized for accurate thickness measurements of heavily corroded or attenuating materials, utilizing Time Corrected Gain to compensate for signal loss.
For user convenience and accuracy across various materials, the UMX-2 features eight preset material types and the ability to program one custom material velocity. A five-position gain switch allows for manual adjustment of signal amplification to optimize readings in different conditions.
Furthermore, the UMX-2 boasts a powerful Data Logger capable of storing up to 5,000 readings along with their corresponding waveform captures. This invaluable feature allows for detailed post-inspection analysis and documentation.
