High Temperature EMAT - 550°C
£1750
Key Advantages and Features:
-
- High-Temperature Operation: Operates continuously up to 550°C without cooling, making it suitable for extreme testing conditions.
- Magnetostrictive Signal Enhancement: Designed to utilize the magnetostrictive effect on magnetic materials, delivering strong signals even on oxidised surfaces.
- Broadband Frequency for Shear Wave Generation: Optimized for 3-5 MHz, providing high-sensitivity data for flaw detection and material characterisation.
- Wear Face Protection Options: Includes detachable wear faces to protect the EMAT during high-impact inspections; wear faces reduce ultrasonic signal slightly but add durability.
Applications:
-
- Thickness gauging and defect detection in high-temperature pipelines and industrial vessels
- Corrosion monitoring in energy and petrochemical sectors
- Acoustic birefringence and crystallographic texture analysis
- Long-term inspection of high-temperature components without cooling
