- Improves near surface resolution
- Eliminates delay line multiples for high temperature applications
- Couples well on rough or curved surfaces
- Reduces direct back-scattering noise in coarse grained or scattering materials
- Combines penetration capabilities of a lower frequency single element transducer with the near surface resolution capabilities of a higher frequency single element transducer
- Can be contoured to conform to curved parts
Applications:
- Remaining wall thickness measurement
- Corrosion/erosion monitoring
- Weld overlay and cladding bond/disbond inspection
- Detection of porosity, inclusions, cracks, and laminations in castings and forgings
- Crack detection in bolts or other cylindrical objects
- Maximum temperature capability is 800°F (425°C) for 5.0 MHz and below; 350°F (175°C) for 7.5 MHz and 10 MHz. Recommended duty cycle for surface temperatures from 200°F (90°C) to 800°F (425°C) is ten seconds maximum contact followed by a minimum of one minute air cooling (does not apply to Miniature Tip Dual)
