OKOndt ETS2-77 Eddy Current Single Rail

• Lightweight and compact

Weight of the assembled flaw detector does not exceed 23 kg (50 lbs).

Overall dimensions of the assembled flaw detector are not more than:

• width – 900 mm
• length – 1730 mm
• height – 350 mm

The ETS2-77 flaw detector is a folding structure, which can be transported as it is a assembled in stowed position.

• ETS2-77 intended use

The ETS2-77 is intended for the mechanized inspection of rails and switches as well as confirmation of the results of a grinding application. The device is capable of testing a wide range of rail profiles.

The eddy current technology enables localizing the following surface defects:

• progressive transverse cracking (International Defect Code (UIC) 211);
• fissuring /scaling at the gauge corner (International Defect Code (UIC) 2223);
• shelling of the gauge corner (International Defect Code (UIC) 2222);
• wheel burn (International Defect Code (UIC) 225).

The eddy current rail inspection equipment ETS2-77 is capable of evaluating the vertical depth of the defect, thus allowing a more efficient management of rail defects. The inspector can easily decide on the defect removal method: grinding, milling or re-railing, which saves time and money.
