SoniX™ UT Ambient Temperature Ultrasonic Couplant (P/N: SX1) by Echo Ultrasonics

The SoniX™ UT Ambient Temperature Ultrasonic Couplant (P/N: SX1) from Echo Ultrasonics is a premium, general-purpose couplant designed to facilitate optimal acoustic coupling between an ultrasonic transducer and the test piece. It's a critical consumable in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), ensuring efficient transmission of ultrasonic waves for accurate flaw detection and thickness measurement at ambient temperatures.

This 1-gallon (3.8 liter) container comes complete with a convenient dispensing bottle and cap, making it easy to transfer the couplant from bulk storage to smaller, applicator-friendly bottles for field use.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Superior Acoustic Performance: Engineered to provide excellent acoustic impedance matching, ensuring maximum transmission of ultrasonic energy from the transducer into the material and back, leading to clear, strong signals.

• Optimized for Ambient Temperatures: Specifically formulated for use within typical ambient industrial and laboratory temperature ranges, providing consistent performance without drying out too quickly or becoming too viscous.

• Non-Toxic and Safe: Formulated without harmful chemicals, making it safe for both inspectors and the environment. It is non-toxic, biodegradable, and free from formaldehyde, ensuring a safer work environment.

• Material Compatibility: Non-corrosive and non-staining, it is safe for use on a wide variety of materials including metals, composites, and plastics, without leaving residue or causing damage.

• Ideal Viscosity: Offers a balanced viscosity that provides good wetting for effective coupling on various surfaces, while preventing excessive run-off, particularly on vertical or overhead applications.

• Convenient Packaging: The 1-gallon jug is practical for bulk storage and refilling. The included empty dispensing bottle and dispensing cap enhance usability, allowing for easy and controlled application during inspections.

• Echo Ultrasonics Quality: Manufactured by Echo Ultrasonics, a reputable leader in ultrasonic couplant technology, ensuring consistent quality and reliability.
