CR Contact Transducers
.The larger element sizes of model CR provide greater scan widths and penetration for applications such as plate, billet, bars, thick-section parts, pipe, and tanks. They have side-mounted BNC connectors and a removable comfort grip to reduce operator fatigue. GP series* offer the best combination of sensitivity and resolution.
Single-element contact transducers are longitudinal-wave (straight-beam) transducers designed for general-purpose manual ultrasonic inspection where test materials are relatively flat and smooth. They provide high sensitivity for better penetration, small-flaw detection, and have abrasion-resistant wear plates for extended service life. Typically used with Ultrasonic Flaw Detectors, that are Calibrated with Blocks.
Typical Applications
- Plates
- Billets
- Bars & Pipes
- Thick-Section Parts
- Tanks
Key Benefits
- Large diameter elements allow for efficient scanning of large surfaces
- Abrasion-resistant wear plates for extended service life
- Effective in small-flaw detection
Series
*GP Series – General Purpose series of transducers are recommended for most applications and have a good trade-off between sensitivity and resolution. They have a medium frequency bandwidth of 40-65% at -6db but with more ring-down cycles in the waveform.
