Standard Contact Transducers— RHP and XLC Styles

RHP and XLC Style Contacts

Standard Contact Transducers are designed for abusive “scrubbing”

applications. Gamma series are for applications where sensitivity and

penetration are essential. Alpha series have maximum bandwidth for

axial resolution. RHP style probes feature ceramic

wearplates for the best combination of acoustic matching

and durability and stainless steel housings to resist

corrosion. New XLC (Extended Life Contact) style probes

have special, high durability wearplates for the most

abusive applications. Both styles feature an improved

comfort grip and color band for frequency identification.

CR models have right angle mounted BNC connectors

and the CS models have top-mounted BNC connectors.

K-PEN Replaceable Delay Line Pencil Probe

K-PEN' s are high resolution pencil type probes. They are

designed for applications requiring an extremely small

contact area, such as tightly curved surfaces of turbine

blades or remaining wall thickness measurements from a

pit bottom. They can be used with most flaw detectors,

precision thickness gauges, and general pulser / receiver

units. Probes come with interchangeable delay tips that are

tapered to a .065" and .090" contact diameter.

Replacement delays are available in packs of 10. The

straight model fetures a removable handle, which also

allows it to be used as a fingertip probe. All models have

Microdot connectors.

ZIP Probes for Testing Composite and Other

Attenuative Plastics

Zero Interface (ZIP) Probes are highly damped, low

frequency delay line transducers designed for composite

inspection. ZIP delay lines are acoustically matched to

most composite and other plastic materials. This

eliminates or minimizes the delay line interface echo,

significantly improving near surface resolution. The low

frequency characteristics of ZIPs make them excellent for

penetrating thick or highly attenuative cross-sections.

ZIPs can also be used on many smooth surfaced

materials without couplant.

PWCCR and PWCCS Style Contacts

Protective Wear Cap Contact Transducers have

expendable wear caps which are easily replaced

when worn. This means unlimited economy when

the job calls for “scrubbing” which would normally

destroy a standard contact probe. The PWCCR

while the PWCCS Style has straight top-mount BNC

connectors. High temperature delay lines are also

available for applications to 400°F.

SWS and AWS Style Angle Beam, Gamma Series

SWS and AWS Style Angle Beam Transducers are designed

to fit on removable wedges. Refracted shear wave angles

may be specified as required. The AWS series are

designed to meet or exceed all of the requirements

outlined in AWS Structural Welding Code D1.1. All

SWS and AWS transducers utilize captive screws for

fastening the probe to the wedge and have top-mount

BNC connectors. High temperature wedges are for

temperatures up to 400° F.


Angle Beam Transducers are single or dual element

transducers designed for weld inspection or flaw

detection where flaws have an angular orientation

with respect to the material surface. Weld

inspections are performed using shear waves

refracted from a longitudinal wave by means of a

lucite wedge. Lucite wedges are designed to

produce shear waves of a particular angle in a

specified material with minimal wedge noise.

Subminiature Angle Beam— SMSWS Style



designed for weld inspection or flaw detection where flaws have an

angular orientation with respect to the material surface. Weld

inspections are performed using shear waves refracted from a

longitudinal wave by means of a lucite wedge. Lucite wedges are

designed to produce shear waves of a particular angle in a specified

material with minimal wedge noise.

ABFP Style Angle Beam

ABFP Style, fingertip, fixed angle, shear wave transducers are available in standard angles for

inspecting steel and aluminum. Custom angles for other materials may be special ordered. Their small

size makes them ideal for weld inspection in restricted access areas. All ABFP Transducers are

equipped with right angle Microdot connectors. Top mounted connectors may be special ordered.

Dual Element Transducers

Dual Element Contact Transducers are longitudinal

wave transducers with a split element; one half

functions as a transmitter while the other functions as

a receiver. Each half-element is angled slightly toward

the other forming the “roof” angle. This “roof” angle

effectively focuses the sound beam. These trans-

ducers are excellent for thin range flaw detection and

thickness gauging. Because they have a discrete

transmitter and receiver, better signal to noise ratios

are achieved compared to single element transducers.

ADP, RC, and FDU Style Dual Element

Dual Element Transducers are for general flaw

detection and thickness gauging on materials with

irregular or pitted surfaces. The ADP and RC models

are color coded for quick frequency identification. The

low profile ADP model has a potted BNC cable. The RC

Dual models have a 4-pin LEMO connector which

allows for quick and easy cable replacement. All FDU

models have mini Microdot threaded connectors. All

models may be contoured to fit ID and OD curvatures.

Single Element Immersion Transducers are longitudinal wave

transducers typically used in manual, semi-automatic, and

automatic scanning systems. Scanning parts with irregular or

complex geometries is possible because of the conforming

“water path” layer between the probe and the inspected material.

Superior near-surface resolution can be achieved when compared

to contact transducers. Angle beam inspection is possible by

simply angling the probe or search tube in relation to the part

surface. Spherical (point) or cylindrical (line) focusing can also be

accomplished using acoustically matched lenses. Focal length

must be specified.

ISS and IS Style Immersion

ISS and IS Immersion Transducers are for general ultrasonic immersion inspections requiring element

diameters between .25″ and 1.0″. Available in Alpha, Gamma, and BENCHMARK COMPOSITE® series,

they can be focused for critical applications to improve near-surface resolution or sensitivity to small

discontinuities. All ISS and IS Transducers have waterproof UHF connectors. Waterproof BNC

connectors may be special

ordered. Gamma Series are

recommended for

applications where high

sensitivity and penetration

are required. Alpha Series

(where available) are

designed for optimum

damping and resolution.

New Benchmark Series

(where available), with

BENCHMARK COMPOSITE®

elements, offer a superior

combination of sensitivity,

resolution, and penetration

for punching through highly

attenuative materials.

* Focus: S = Spherical; C = Cylindrical, N = Non-focus.

Focal length must be specified. For available focal

lengths, see table at the end of the Immersion

Immersion Transducers— ISS and IS Styles

Single Element Immersion Transducers are longitudinal wave transducers typically used in

manual, semi-automatic, and automatic scanning systems. Scanning parts with irregular or

complex geometries is possible because of the conforming “water path” layer between the probe

and the inspected material. Superior near-surface resolution can be achieved when compared to

contact transducers. Angle beam inspection is possible by simply angling the probe or search

tube in relation to the part surface. Spherical (point) or cylindrical (line) focusing can also be

accomplished using acoustically matched lenses. Focal length must be specified.

IPS Style Immersion

IPS Immersion Transducers with small diameter cases are designed for immersion

applications where transducer size limitations exist. The Alpha series are designed for

maximum bandwidth and resolution capabilities. The Gamma series are for increased sensitivity and

penetration. All IPS Transducers have Microdot connectors.For best results the connector should be

sealed with a non-

water soluble grease.

IR Style Immersion

IR Immersion Transducers are used where

.25″ to .5″ diameter probes are desired,

but where space constraints exist that

prohibit the use of standard ISS Style

transducers. IR Style transducers have a

right angle mounted UHF connector and

will fit into a 1.5 cubic inch area. The IR is

available in both the Alpha and Gamma

series and can be focused for

critical applications to

improve near-surface

resolution or sensitivity

to small discontinuities.

Single Element Immersion Transducers are longitudinal wave

transducers typically used in manual, semi-automatic, and

automatic scanning systems. Scanning parts with irregular or

complex geometries is possible because of the conforming “water

path” layer between the probe and the inspected material.

Superior near-surface resolution can be achieved when compared

to contact transducers. Angle beam inspection is possible by

simply angling the probe or search tube in relation to the part

surface. Spherical or cylindrical focusing can also be accomplished

using acoustically matched lenses. Focal length must be specified.

Velocity System Immersion Transducers

These transducers are specifically designed for use with through

transmission Krautkramer Velocity Systems. These transducers

are available in either the ISS Style or IR Style housing and are

provided with standard waterproof UHF connectors.

Single Element TransducersFor Use With Precision Thickness Gauges

Precision thickness gauging transducers are

single element, delay line and contact

transducers designed primarily for use with

Krautkramer precision thickness gauges.

They may also be used with most standard flaw

detection instruments. A wide variety is available

to satisfy virtually any inspection requirement on

most metals and nonmetals with relatively

smooth, parallel front and back surfaces.

Depending on probe selection and material

conditions, most precision gauges can measure

from 0.005 to 15.00 inches in steel and plastic.

Phased Array TransducersPrinciples of Phased Array Transducers

By sequentially firing the individual elements of an array transducer at slightly different times,

the ultrasonic wavefront can be focused or steered in a specific direction.

Additionally, electronically phasing the order and sequential firing speeds of an array allows for

“sweeping” or “panning” through a selection of beam angles or across an area of inspection

without manually manipulating the transducer.

Linear Phased Array Curved Phased Array

Key Features

• Electronic focal length adjustments

• Electronic linear scanning

• Electronic beam steering / angulation

Key Benefits

• Reduced manual manipulation

• Reduced scanning surface contact area

Transducer Certification

Beam Profile

The beam profile plot is made by moving the

transducer across a small rod reflector in an

immersion tank. Ball or wire reflectors are also

commonly used. The beam profile gives the

relative intensity and width of the sound beam at

a given distance from the transducer face.

Distance Amplitude Curve

The distance amplitude curve shows the effect

of the near field (Fresnel Zone) as well as the

exponential decay of the far field.

Real Time Waveform and Frequency Spectrum

The real time waveform and frequency spectrum

certifies the natural, unbiased, unfiltered waveform

and the degree of damping and shows the frequency

components of the gated signal. A highly damped unit

such as an Alpha Series transducer gives optimum

resolution while displaying a broad frequency

spectrum. This is necessary for thickness gauging of

thin materials or when inspecting for near-surface

flaws. A transducer that is not as highly damped will

have greater penetrating power but less resolution

and a narrower frequency spectrum.
