NM01MG50

The PARKER MG-50 Magnetic Field Indicator, commonly referred to as a Pie Gauge, is a fundamental tool for verifying the direction of the magnetic field during magnetic particle inspection (MPI) on ferromagnetic materials. This straightforward yet critical device helps ensure that the applied magnetic field is correctly aligned to effectively reveal surface and near-surface discontinuities. This specific unit is provided with a Certificate, offering documented assurance of its manufacturing quality.  

Constructed from a highly permeable material with eight equally spaced segments separated by non-magnetic brazing, the Pie Gauge provides a visual indication of the magnetic field lines. When placed on the test surface and a magnetic field is introduced, magnetic particles will align themselves perpendicular to these lines of flux, forming visible patterns across the non-magnetic divisions. The clearest and most defined indications will appear at a right angle to the magnetic field's orientation.  

Typically used with dry magnetic particles, the Pie Gauge should be held firmly against the inspection surface during magnetization. It is designed for repeated use and does not degrade over time, provided it is properly demagnetized after each inspection to ensure accurate readings in subsequent tests.  

The accompanying Certificate confirms that this Pie Gauge has been manufactured to meet specified quality standards, providing users with confidence in its reliability for determining magnetic field direction during MPI.
