SCANRAY® 1723 — Portable Wireless Digital Radiography System
Complete Field Package | SKU: SCANRAY1723
Overview
The SCANRAY® 1723 is a compact, high-resolution portable wireless digital radiography (DR) system and the smallest model in the SCANRAY Ultra series. Engineered by DR Systems for precision industrial inspection, the 1723 combines an ultra-fine 75 µm pixel pitch with a slim, lightweight form factor — making it the ideal solution for inspections in confined spaces, tight geometries, and applications where both portability and maximum image resolution are equally critical.
From pipeline girth welds and small-bore piping to aerospace components and precision castings, the SCANRAY® 1723 delivers the finest level of detail discrimination available in the SCANRAY lineup — in the most portable package. Everything required to begin performing digital radiographic inspections is included straight out of the box.

Ultra Series — Maximum Resolution in the Smallest Package
The SCANRAY® 1723 is the lightest and most compact model in the Ultra series, sharing the same industry-leading 75 µm pixel pitch as its larger sibling, the 2329 — but in a significantly smaller and lighter detector body. This makes it uniquely suited for inspections where access is restricted and space is at a premium, without any compromise on image quality.
| SCANRAY Series | Pixel Pitch | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Regular (1230, 2532, 3643) | 124 – 140 µm | General weld and corrosion inspection |
| PRO (2530, 3643) | 99 µm | Enhanced detail in demanding QC applications |
| Ultra (1723 — This Product, 2329) | 75 µm | Maximum resolution in compact or confined-space applications |
At just 2.4 kg (5.29 lb), the 1723 is the lightest detector in the entire SCANRAY lineup — making it the easiest to position, hold, and maneuver in challenging inspection environments.
DR-SOFT® Software
The SCANRAY® 1723 ships with DR-SOFT® pre-installed on both the included ruggedized laptop and ruggedized tablet. DR-SOFT® is DR Systems' proprietary radiographic image acquisition and evaluation software, designed to deliver a fast and intuitive inspection workflow directly in the field. Key capabilities include:
- Real-time image display immediately after each exposure
- Image enhancement, annotation, and measurement tools
- DICONDE-format image storage for secure archiving and remote transmission
- Immediate post-exposure evaluation — no darkroom, no waiting, no film processing
- Remote image transmission to a separate evaluation station for multi-site workflows
System Highlights
True Plug-and-Play Inspection The comprehensive package contents mean inspectors can begin working immediately upon arrival on site — no separate software licensing, no missing accessories, no sourcing compatible hardware.
Lightest in the SCANRAY Lineup At 2.4 kg (5.29 lb), the 1723 is the lightest SCANRAY detector available — reducing operator fatigue during extended inspection campaigns and simplifying positioning in hard-to-reach locations.
Wireless Operation Images are transmitted in real-time from the detector to the operator's tablet or laptop via Wi-Fi, allowing the operator to remain safely outside the radiation exclusion zone during exposure. An additional Wi-Fi module is included to extend wireless range in challenging environments.
24/7 Continuous Inspection Two full sets of batteries with charger ensure uninterrupted operation across extended inspection campaigns or multi-shift production environments.
Drop and Impact Protection The included universal protective cover protects the detector from accidental drops of up to 2 meters (6.6 feet) — a critical safeguard in active industrial environments.
High-Temperature Inspection The included heat-resistant blanket allows the detector to be used on hot objects up to 250°C (482°F) without any cooling period — reducing downtime in high-temperature process plant environments.
Zero Data Loss The detector's internal memory stores images locally when the wireless connection to the operator's station is interrupted. No images are ever lost during a working shift.
Compatible with All Radiation Sources The SCANRAY® 1723 works with constant-potential, half-sine, and pulsed X-ray generators, as well as gamma radiation sources of varying activity levels.
Compliance & Standards
The SCANRAY® 1723 fully meets the requirements of the following international NDT standards:
- ISO 17636-2 — Non-destructive testing of welds: Radiographic testing (Digital detectors)
- ASTM E2698 — Standard Practice for Radiological Examination Using Digital Detector Arrays
- ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code — Section V, Article 2
Ideal Applications
- Small-bore pipe and confined-space weld inspection
- Aerospace and precision component quality control
- Corrosion mapping of pressure vessels, storage tanks, and piping
- Shipbuilding and offshore structure inspection
- In-service inspection of insulated and operating equipment
- Any application requiring maximum IQI sensitivity in a compact, lightweight detector
