ROTIX - 4 Probe Weld Frame Scanner
ROTIX - 4 Probe Weld Frame Scanner
The ROTIX - 4 Probe Weld Frame Scanner provides the encoded probe position of four probes circumferentially around tubes and pipes. Manually operated, this double-wheel chain scanner straddles the weld, allowing the scanner frame to be centred on the weld, thus reducing wandering and scanner width. Adapt this chain scanner for outer diameter scan surfaces of 10.2 cm - 96.5 cm (4 in to 38 in) using short and long links combinations.
Part ID: CEG013
Scan both ferrous and non-ferrous materials with a flexible four probe chain scanner.
FEATURES
ADJUSTABLE CHAIN
Using two link lengths and an adjustable buckle, pipes and tubes ranging from 10.2 cm – 96.5 cm (4 in – 38 in) diameter may be easily scanned. The quick-release links are designed for a simple and efficient chain setup.
DOUBLE WHEEL CHAIN
The double-wheel chain straddles the weld to allow the scanner to be centred on the weld. This alleviates scanner wandering and reduces the width of the scanner.
BRAKES
Prevent scanner movement when required.
WHEELS
Urethane wheels reduce the effects of debris on scanner travel and eliminate slippage during vertical applications.
SPRING-LOADED ENCODER
The spring-loaded encoder maintains encoder contact with the scan surface, ensuring accuracy. The encoder's output is fully compatible with most standard instruments.
ADJUSTABLE OVERTOP LINK
Raise the adjustable overtop link to provide space for large probes to operate. Lower the adjustable overtop link when low-profile scanning is required.
SLIP JOINT PROBE HOLDERS
Easily adjust probe centre spacing and probe alignment with these probe holders designed to accommodate most major phased array wedge types.
HANDLES
Convenient handles offer control of the scanner and mounting points for accessories such as cable management.
MODULAR DESIGN
Convert the ROTIX to a magnetic STIX scanner with a conversion kit allowing for one tool to be used for many applications.
WARRANTY
JIREH backs this product with a 3-year warranty

COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
ADJUSTABLE OVERTOP LINK
The adjustable overtop link adjusts to accommodate oversized probes. When low-profile scanning is required, the link may be contracted.
FRAME BAR
The kit includes a 40 cm (15.7 in) frame bar. However, various lengths of frame bars are available for various scan applications.
SLIP JOINT PROBE HOLDERS
Four slip joint probe holders carry two phased array and two TOFD wedges.
HANDLES
Handles allow a grip point for the scanner and a mounting point for various accessories.
SHORT LINK
Multiple short links complete the chain configuration around pipes and tubes.
CATCH LINK
The catch link completes the chain connection around the scan surface. Use the dovetail mount to carry accessories when required.
SHORT LINK WITH DOVETAIL
Utilize the dovetail mount to add accessories to the scanner, such as cable management.
LONG LINK
Equivalent to (approx.) 3 short links, the long link is helpful during large-diameter scan setups.
BUCKLE
The buckle connects to the catch link to form the chain system, which mounts the scanner to the inspection surface.
