NM01MG10S
The Parker Research MG-10S Centrifuge Tube Stand is a dedicated accessory for Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI), specifically designed to hold 100ml centrifuge tubes used for measuring the concentration of magnetic particles in a wet MPI bath. This stand ensures stability and proper positioning of the tube, allowing for accurate readings and adherence to industry standards.
Key Features & Benefits:
Dedicated Purpose: The MG-10S is engineered specifically to securely hold standard 100ml conical centrifuge tubes used in MPI. This ensures the tube remains upright and stable during the settling process and while reading the settled particle volume.
Ensures Accurate Concentration Measurement: By holding the tube correctly, the stand facilitates the routine measurement of magnetic particle bath concentration. Maintaining the proper concentration is critical for the effectiveness of MPI, as too low a concentration can lead to missed indications, and too high a concentration can cause excessive background and mask defects.
Compatibility: Designed to work with all types of Parker Research's 100ml centrifuge tubes, including the MG-10T (general), MG-10TF-C (certified fluorescent), and MG-10TNF-C (certified non-fluorescent) models.
Durable Construction: Made from robust materials (typically plastic or metal), the stand is built to withstand the typical industrial environments found in NDT labs and field operations.
Simple & Practical Design: Its straightforward design allows for easy insertion and removal of the centrifuge tube, making the concentration measurement process efficient.
Parker Research Quality: As a product from Parker Research Corporation, a long-standing and trusted manufacturer in the NDT industry, the MG-10S is a reliable and compatible component for your MPI setup.
Compliance: Used in conjunction with 100ml centrifuge tubes as described in standards such as ASTM E709 (Standard Guide for Magnetic Particle Testing) and ASTM E1444 (Standard Practice for Magnetic Particle Testing).
