NM01MA7FC
The Parker Research MA-7FC Remote Switch Cable is a vital accessory for portable Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) units, specifically designed to enhance operator safety and efficiency. It allows the operator to remotely energize the magnetizing current of the MPI unit, providing flexibility and convenience during inspection processes.
Key Features & Benefits:
Remote Operation: The primary function of the MA-7FC is to provide a safe distance between the operator and the immediate work area where high currents may be present. This remote activation capability enhances safety, especially when inspecting large or complex parts.
Foot Switch Design: The MA-7FC typically features a robust foot switch, allowing hands-free operation and freeing the operator's hands to handle the part or the magnetic particle prods/yoke. This is particularly useful in production environments for repetitive tasks.
Optimized Compatibility: This cable is specifically designed for seamless compatibility with popular Parker Research portable magnetic inspection units, including the DA-750 and DA-1500. It features a standard 4/O cable connection, eliminating the need for adapters.
Generous Cable Length: With a standard length of 20 feet (approximately 6.1 meters), the cable provides ample reach, enabling the operator to position themselves comfortably and safely away from the test piece and the main power unit.
Durable Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of industrial NDT environments, the cable and foot switch are constructed from robust materials, ensuring longevity and reliable performance.
Plug-and-Play Simplicity: The cable offers straightforward connectivity, allowing for quick setup and breakdown, maximizing operational efficiency.
Parker Research Quality: Manufactured by Parker Research Corporation, a trusted name in NDT equipment, ensuring high quality, reliability, and compatibility with their range of MPI products.
