Panametrics-NDT Ultrasonic Transducers

Protected Face Transducers

 

A protected face transducer is a single element longitudinal wave contact transducer that can be used with either a delay line, protective membrane, or protective wear cap.

 

Advantages

  • Provides versatility by offering removable delay line, protective wear cap, and protective membrane
  • When the transducer is used alone (without any of the options), the epoxy wear face provides good acoustic impedance matching into plastics, many composites, and other low impedance materials
  • Cases are threaded for easy attachment to the delay line, protective membrane, and wear cap options

Applications

  • Straight beam flaw detection
  • Thickness gaging
  • High temperature inspections
  • Inspection of plates, billets, bars, and forgings

 

Standard Protected Face

 

  • Comfort Fit sleeves are designed to be easily held and provide steady grip while wearing gloves
  • Standard connector style Right Angle BNC (RB), may be available in Straight BNC (SB)
  • Delay line, protective membrane, and wear cap options sold separately from the transducer

High Temperature Delay Line Options

  • Allows for intermittent contact with hot surfaces*
  • Improves near surface resolution
  • Contouring of delay lines provides better coupling on curved surfaces
  • Warm temperature delay lines (WTD) can be used for room temperature applications

*Recommended usage cycle is ten seconds maximum contact followed by one minute of air cooling. However, the transducer itself should not be heated above 122°F (50°C).

X = standard delay line lengths, available in 1/2" (13 mm), 1" (25 mm), 1-1/2" (38 mm). Specify at time of ordering.

 

 
Note: For the delay lines above, a room temperature material longitudinal wave velocity of 0.100 in/µsec ±0.005 in/µsec may be used as an approximation for basic calculations. This value should not be used for engineering design calculations.
