Parker Research DA-750 Portable Magnetic Inspection Unit - 115VAC, 750 Amp Output
The Parker Research DA-750 Portable Magnetic Inspection Unit is a robust and highly versatile instrument engineered for efficient magnetic particle inspection (MPI). This heavy-duty, compact unit is designed to provide powerful AC (Alternating Current) and HWDC (Half-Wave Direct Current) magnetic fields, making it an indispensable tool for detecting surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferrous materials across various industries.
Operating from a standard 115VAC single-phase power source, the DA-750 is ideal for use in most workshop, laboratory, and field environments where standard wall power is available. It delivers a substantial 750 Amps of magnetizing current (based on one 15-foot length of 4/0 cable), providing ample power for a wide range of inspection tasks, from smaller components to localized areas on larger structures. The current output is infinitely variable from zero to maximum via a front panel control, allowing for precise adjustment to suit specific application needs, with the actual output indicated by an easy-to-read analog meter.
A key advantage of the DA-750 is its dual AC/HWDC capability:
The AC magnetic field is highly sensitive for detecting fine surface defects and is also used for effective demagnetization after inspection.
The HWDC magnetic field offers deeper penetration, enabling the detection of certain subsurface indications in addition to surface flaws, enhancing overall defect detection capability.
Built for durability and ease of transport, the DA-750 features a rugged construction and a convenient carrying handle, making it highly suitable for both shop and demanding field applications.
