NM01DVF073

The NDT Systems UT Potted Dual Fingertip transducer is a compact and ergonomic ultrasonic transducer featuring a dual element configuration. Operating at a higher frequency of 7.5 MHz with a crystal diameter of 0.375 inches, this probe is designed for enhanced near-surface resolution and is often utilized for thickness gauging of thinner materials and corrosion detection. The "potted" construction signifies that the internal components are encapsulated in a durable material, providing excellent protection against environmental factors and ensuring robust performance in demanding inspection environments. The "fingertip" design allows for easy maneuverability and optimal contact, even in restricted or challenging inspection areas.

Key Features:

• Dual Element: Employs separate transmitting and receiving crystals to improve performance, particularly on irregular, rough, or corroded surfaces, and enhances near-surface resolution.

• Frequency: 7.5 MHz: Higher frequency provides excellent near-surface resolution for accurate measurement of thin materials and detection of shallow flaws.

• Crystal Diameter: 0.375 inches: Offers a focused sound beam suitable for detailed inspections.

• Potted Construction: Encapsulated design provides durability and protection against moisture, dust, and other environmental contaminants.

• Fingertip Design: Compact and ergonomic housing allows for easy handling and access to confined spaces.

• Contact Transducer: Designed for direct contact with the test surface using an appropriate ultrasonic couplant.

• Compatibility: Intended for use with compatible ultrasonic flaw detectors and thickness gauges.

Benefits:

• Excellent Near-Surface Resolution: The higher frequency and dual element design enable precise measurement of thin materials and detection of shallow defects.

• Improved Performance on Challenging Surfaces: Dual element technology enhances coupling and signal reception on irregular or corroded materials.

• Durable and Reliable: The potted construction ensures longevity and consistent performance in demanding environments.

• Enhanced Access: The compact fingertip design allows inspection in areas with limited space.

• Easy to Use: The ergonomic design ensures comfortable and controlled manipulation during manual inspections.

Applications:

• Precise thickness gauging of thin-walled materials.

• Detection and characterization of corrosion, pitting, and other localized flaws.

• Inspection of welds, particularly for near-surface defects.

• General ultrasonic testing in areas with restricted access.

• Quality control in manufacturing processes where detailed near-surface evaluation is critical.

• Inspection of components with complex geometries.
