FEATURES
AXIAL SCANNING
A dual pivot frame bar accommodates two probe, longitudinal scans. Perform manual long seam scans on pipes as small as 15.24 cm (6 in).
CIRCUMFERENTIAL SCANNING
Conversion between circumferential and longitudinal capabilities is quick and simple. Scan circumferentially on pipes and tubes as small as 25.4 cm (10 in). Scan circumferentially as small as 10.2 cm (4 in) using slip-joint probe holders (sold separately).
EASE OF USE
Comfortable handles provide excellent scanner control as well as mounting points for accessories.
SPRING-LOADED ENCODER
The spring-loaded encoder maintains constant surface contact to ensure accurate scanner positioning.
PHASED ARRAY PROBE HOLDERS
Numerous setup variations and finely tuned adjustment options are the hallmarks of the vertical probe holders.
