ROTIX - 2 Probe Phased Array Scanner

ROTIX - 2 Probe Phased Array Scanner

The ROTIX is a manual chain scanner designed to provide encoded probe position of probes circumferentially around tubes and pipes. The ROTIX - 2 Probe Phased Array Scanner is completely configurable for both phased array and traditional UT (Ultrasonic Testing) with single or multiple probes.

Part ID: CEG002

Two probe cantilever scanning which provides quick probe adjustment.

FEATURES

ADJUSTABLE CHAIN

Our exclusive chain design grants the ability to scan pipe/tube diameters of 3.8 cm to 96.5 cm while using quick release, easy to use chain system.

FRAME BARS

45 cm (17.7 in) and 20 cm (7.8 in) frame bars provide setup options for dual and single probe scanning.

BRAKE SYSTEM

A brake is provided to lock the scanner in a required position.

UMBILICAL

The umbilical is modular and can be removed from the scanner. It can be used for one-axis and two-axis scans when used with optional accessories.

REMOVABLE HANDLE

The ROTIX includes a removable cover which allows easy access to protected connections while also providing a means of cable management.

BUILT-IN ENCODER

An encoder is integrated into the body of the ROTIX cart. The encoder output is fully compatible with all standard instruments

WHEELS

All wheels are coated with urethane to reduce the effects of foreign debris obstructing the rolling of the scanner. Urethane also eliminates the sideways sliding of the scanner when used in vertical applications.

PROBE HOLDERS

An integrated latch allows easy probe center spacing adjustment and scanner installation. Due to its modular design, most major types of phased array wedges can be accommodated.

WARRANTY

Three-year limited warranty on all products.
