The Olympus HST-X04 time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) manual scanner offers an efficient, low-cost, and versatile weld inspection solution.

Applications

• Manually deployed single-axis scanner for use on plate, pipe, and curved surfaces

• Applicable to pipes, pressure vessels, storage tanks, and structural components

• Operates in any orientation, either on flat surfaces or on pipes up to 51-mm (2 in.) OD.

Data acquisition

• Permanent record of the results with the OmniScan®

• Ideal for position-related A-scan, B-scan, and echo-dynamic scan data collection

• Suitable for any system with 2 UT channels

Scanner Kit Components

• Scanner with 150-mm frame

• Two 10-MHz (3-mm element diameter) CentraScan™ composite TOFD probes offering signal-to-noise ratio improvement over conventional UT probes

• Three sets of ST1 wedges with carbide wear pins and irrigation holes for 45º, 60º, and 70º operation

• Two LEMO®-Microdot® transducer cables 2.5m long

• Two LEMO®-to-BNC adapters

• Spring-loaded, friction-driven, and water proof Mini-Wheel encoder for X-axis or Y-axis data encoding

• Brackets for flexible encoder positioning

• Additional 250-mm frame for wider probe center separation

• Foam-padded carrying case

This HST-X04 Scanner kit can be further configured to fit the broad range of Olympus TOFD and pulse-echo probes and wedges, including the composite product line.

Feature

• Encoded linear-scan (one axis) for TOFD or pulse-echo inspections with appropriate yoke

• Water proof spring loaded encoder with rubber wheel for maximum adherence on inspected surfaces

• Compact, light and versatile

• Cost-effective

• Durable construction

• Can fit a full range of probes and wedges, including the CentraScan™ composite product line

• Probe center separation (PCS) fully adjustable from 17 mm to 180 mm

• Low-profile frame for use in constrained areas

• Tool-free quick release of wedges and probe holders

• Encoder resolution: 12 step/mm

• Compatible with the OmniScan, the TomoScan FOCUS LT (with optional adapter), and other instruments using the appropriate encoder cable (not included).
