Immersion probes

Performance, Reliability, Reproducibility


High pressure pig probes for pipeline inspection


Rectangular immersion probes for tube inspection


Cylindrically focused transducer for tube inspection


Immersion probes for car engine inspection


Miniature immersion probes for tube inspection by the inside

 

Applications

Automated inspection of various pieces and materials :
- Tubes, bars, plates inline inspection
- Pig probes for pipelines inspection
- Machined parts, forged parts inspection
- Metals, composite materials, ceramics, plastics..

Advantages

High sensitivity and s/n ratio (+10 to +50 dB) compared to conventional immersion transducers while keeping a large bandwidth (60% to 90%)

Main characteristics

- Active part in piezocomposite material
- Active size from 1mm to 300mm
- Centre frequency (-6dB) : from 200 kHz to 20 MHz
- Relative bandwidth (-6dB) : 60 to 90 %
- Circular or rectangular active area
- Flat or focused active area
- Acoustic impedance matched to water
- Watertight stainless steel housing

Options

Custom wiring
- cable or connector
- cable length, type or positioning, type of connector

Housing adaptation to mechanical set-up (probe holder..)

Adaptation to environmental constraints
- Temperature up to 180°C in continuous or 250°C
- Pressure up to 150 bars
- Nuclear radiation, shocks, vibrations.

IM series

Several applications do not require custom immersion probes. For this purpose, Imasonic has developed the IM series. more >>
