5MHz ½” Fingertip Microdot, Sonatest "5MHz ½” ONLY"
Sonatest Fingertip Contact Transducer - 5MHz, ½” Diameter, Microdot Connector "5MHz ½” ONLY"
This Sonatest fingertip contact transducer is a small and ergonomic probe ideal for ultrasonic testing in confined spaces or on components with complex geometries. Featuring a center frequency of 5 MHz and a ½ inch (12.7 mm) diameter active element, it offers a good balance of resolution and penetration for general-purpose flaw detection and thickness gauging, with enhanced sensitivity for smaller defects compared to a 1MHz probe. The Microdot connector ensures compatibility with many common ultrasonic flaw detectors, providing a secure and noise-resistant connection. Its small size and comfortable grip make it well-suited for manual scanning in various inspection applications.
Key Features:
Compact "Fingertip" Design: Small and lightweight for easy handling and access to restricted areas.
Normal Beam Probe: Designed for straight beam ultrasonic testing.
Higher Frequency for Better Resolution: 5 MHz offers improved resolution for detecting smaller flaws compared to lower frequency probes.
Optimal Element Size: The ½ inch diameter provides a suitable beam profile and sensitivity for general applications.
Standard Connectivity: Microdot connector ensures compatibility with many UT instruments.
Ergonomic Case: Designed for comfortable and secure grip during manual scanning.
Durable Construction: Built to withstand typical industrial inspection environments.
Applications:
Inspection of components with limited access.
Spot checks for flaw detection and thickness measurement, with a focus on detecting smaller discontinuities.
Weld inspection in tight areas where higher resolution is beneficial.
Corrosion surveys in localized regions where detailed assessment is needed.
General-purpose ultrasonic testing where a small, easily maneuverable probe with good resolution is required.
