NM01STARC410

The Sonatest Single Angle Shear Wave Transducer is a robust and reliable "General Weld Probe" featuring a 10mm element diameter and a center frequency of 4 MHz. Equipped with an industry-standard Lemo 00 connector, this transducer is specifically designed for a wide range of angle beam weld inspections.  

This transducer provides a balanced performance in terms of sensitivity and resolution, making it ideal for detecting various weld defects, such as cracks, lack of fusion, and porosity, at different depths within the weld. When used with appropriate angle beam wedges (sold separately), it allows for the introduction of the ultrasonic beam into the material at a specific angle, enabling the detection of flaws that are not oriented perpendicular to the inspection surface. The 4 MHz frequency offers a good compromise between penetration capability and the ability to resolve smaller discontinuities.

Key Selling Points:

• General Purpose Weld Inspection: Suitable for a broad range of weld examination needs.

• Balanced Performance: The 4 MHz frequency offers a good compromise between sensitivity and resolution for effective flaw detection.  

• Reliable Connection: The Lemo 00 connector ensures secure and consistent signal transmission.  

• Durable Construction: Designed to withstand the demands of industrial inspection environments.

• Quality Sonatest Product: Backed by a trusted manufacturer in non-destructive testing.  

Benefits:

• Effective Detection of Weld Defects: Enables the identification of various types of flaws commonly found in welds.  

• Versatile Application: Can be used for inspecting different weld joint configurations and materials when paired with appropriate angle beam wedges.  

• Ensures Reliable Inspection Results: Provides consistent and accurate data for weld integrity assessment.  

• Easy Integration: The Lemo 00 connector ensures compatibility with a wide range of ultrasonic testing instruments.

Approximate Dimensions (inches):

• Element Diameter: Approximately 0.39 inches (10 mm)

• Overall Length (without wedge): Approximately 1.0 to 1.5 inches (This can vary slightly depending on the specific model).

• Body Diameter: Approximately 0.5 to 0.75 inches (This can vary slightly depending on the specific model).

• Connector Type: Lemo 00 (approximately 0.25 inches in diameter).  

Applications:

This single angle shear wave transducer is commonly used for:

• Weld inspection (detection of cracks, lack of fusion, porosity, etc.).  

• Inspection of various weld joint configurations (butt welds, fillet welds, etc.).  

• General flaw detection in welded materials.

• Quality control in welding processes across various industries, including fabrication, construction, and manufacturing.
