The DAKOTA NDT SLM series High Wear Single Element Contact Transducer is a robust and reliable probe designed for general-purpose ultrasonic testing requiring direct contact with the test surface. This specific model features a 0.75" (19.05 mm) diameter element and a frequency of 2.25 MHz. The "HIGH WEAR" designation indicates that this transducer is built with a durable wear face, typically made of hard ceramic and often featuring a stainless steel wear ring, to ensure prolonged service life even on surfaces that may cause more rapid wear on standard transducers.

Key Features:

• Single Normal Beam: Standard compression wave contact transducer.

• Diameter: 0.75" (19.05 mm) - A versatile size offering a good balance of sensitivity and beam profile.

• Frequency: 2.25 MHz - Provides a good balance of penetration and resolution for a variety of materials.

• High Wear Face: Hard ceramic wear face for increased durability on various surfaces.

• Durable Construction: Typically features a stainless steel case for industrial use.

• Connector: Available with various connector types (e.g., BNC, Lemo) to suit different instruments (confirm connector type when purchasing).

Benefits:

• Robust Performance: Designed for reliable and consistent results in general contact testing.

• Increased Durability: High wear face extends the lifespan of the transducer, especially on abrasive surfaces.

• Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of materials and inspection tasks.

• Good Balance of Sensitivity and Beam Profile: The 0.75" element offers a good compromise for many common inspection requirements.

• Effective Penetration and Resolution: The 2.25 MHz frequency provides a strong combination for detecting subsurface discontinuities and measuring material thickness.

Applications:

• General-purpose flaw detection in various materials.

• Thickness gauging.

• Inspection of forgings, castings, and machined parts with relatively smooth to moderately rough surfaces.

• Corrosion surveys.

• Weld inspection.

• Applications where transducer durability is a concern.
