General Characteristics
Acoustic
- Frequency from 500 kHz to 18 MHz
- Unlimited number of elements, typically 8 to 256
- Versatile, Dynamic, Accuracy or Hard face acoustic technology
- Reproducibility of the inspection through the homogeneity of performance between the elements of the same probe, and between different probes of the same type
Housing
- Ergonomic or basic housing
- Typical interface for attaching wedges is captive screws or lateral flanges with holes.
- High reliability over time thanks to a robust, watertight design, compatible with harsh industrial environments
Cable and connector
- Standard probes come with 3m cable, top or side output.
- Standard connectors are Ipex, hypertronix/FRB, ITT Canon, Tyco, Conec.
