UDS2-77 Ultrasonic Single Rail Flaw Detector

Purpose
Software

The trolley is made from light but rigid composite materials, due to which the total weight of the device is 16 kg only.

User-friendly operation

Both mechanics (trolley) and electronics (software) of the UDS2-77 are ergonomically designed, have a user-friendly intuitive interface, as well as are resistant to severe weather conditions that may occur during operation on a railway track.

Key features

Representation of test results in the form of A-scan, multi-A-scan, B-scan for all channels;

Real-time display of test results in the form of B-scan;

Data recording and saving (operator’s name, line, direction, track number, left/right position, initial track coordinate, date, time, final track coordinate);

Screenshot saving (PrintScreen);

Saving of test results in the form of data array (B-scan) to the internal memory;

Use of USB flash drive for transmitting test results to PC;

Availability of measuring gates in A-scan & B-scan modes;

Post-viewing of test result on the flaw detector with the possibility to measure conditional sizes of defects;

Possibility to put the track markers (e.g. “Bridge”, “Crossing”, “Bolt hole”, etc.).

Trolley design

1. Weight of the trolley is 16 kg only.

2. Modular design of the trolley consists of a support frame with adaptive rollers; electronic unit for control and visualization; multiplexer units; battery pack; couplant (water) tank; probe units; suspension mechanism of the probe units to place them into operation/transportation position; encoder.

3. The position of the electronic unit for control and visualization can be adjusted along three axes.

4. The probe unit is positioned cross-wise to the rail with the aid of a dedicated control device.

5. The probe unit can be centered using the adaptive rollers.

6. The suspension mechanism of the probe unit ensures a stable coupling if the trolley is tilted for up to 150.

Probe units

The UDS2-77 flaw detector employs contact probe units of conventional type with both standard and specialized probes.

The probe units are made from wear resistant plastic material, with hard-metal inserts on the working surface.
