NM01USR01
The OKO USR-01 Rail Welded Joint Testing Kit is a comprehensive solution specifically designed for the ultrasonic inspection of aluminothermic and electro-contact welded rail joints. This kit is engineered to ensure the integrity and safety of railway tracks by enabling thorough detection of potential defects in accordance with the EN14730-1:2006+A1:2010 standard.
The USR-01 kit is a valuable tool for railway maintenance and quality control teams, allowing for both initial weld inspection and secondary checks based on the results of high-speed mechanized ultrasonic testing systems. It also facilitates pre-weld inspection of rail ends, ensuring the quality of materials before the welding process.
Key Components of the USR-01 Kit (Contents may vary, but typically include):
Sonocon B Ultrasonic Flaw Detector: A user-friendly and robust handheld flaw detector offering all the necessary functions for inspecting welded rail joints. It complies with quality requirements and provides a range of standard and advanced inspection features. Its lightweight and ergonomic design ensures comfortable operation in the field.
USR-01 Scanner: A specialized scanning device designed for precise positioning and controlled movement of ultrasonic probes along the welded joint. This ensures consistent and comprehensive coverage of the inspection area.
Combined Angle Beam Transducers: A set of transducers with specific angles (commonly 45° and 70° at 2 MHz) designed to inspect various zones of the rail weld, including the web and head, using the echo and pulse-echo methods. The specific transducer configuration is tailored to meet the requirements of EN14730-1.
Couplant: A necessary medium to ensure effective transmission of ultrasonic waves between the transducer and the rail.
Cables and Connectors: High-quality cables to connect the transducers to the Sonocon B flaw detector.
