The Model 25HP PLUS is an advanced ultrasonic gage that makes thickness,
material velocity, and time of flight measurements on materials such as
composites, fiberglass, plastic, rubber, and cast metals that are difficult or
impossible to measure using standard ultrasonic gages. Measuring sound velocity
with this gage allows monitoring of changes in material properties such as the
degree of nodularity in cast metals.
The 25HP PLUS features a large LCD that
displays both the selected type of measurement in bold numerals and the live
ultrasound waveform. This unique gage features a host of standard measurement
features and a sophisticated alphanumeric file-based datalogger.

Measurements
| Mode 1: |
Time interval between excitation pulse and
first backwall echo, using contact transducers. |
| Mode 2: |

echo after the excitation pulse and the first backwall echo, using delay line
or
immersion transducers. |
| Mode 3: |
Time interval between successive backwall
echoes following the first interface echo after the excitation pulse, using
delay line and immersion transducers. |
