NEW replaceable delay line
New Solution, Same OmniScan
When combined with the OmniScan® SX, the DLA corrosion probe rep-
resent an affordable option. The setup and operation is simple: load the
supplied setup file, check the calibration, and then inspect and record the
data. No need for a PR instrument.

Whether it is for fast manual screening of an area with an encoder or for


high speed full volume mapping with the MapROVER motorized scanner,
the DLA corrosion probe is the tool of choice to quickly and easily per-
form C-scans. The innovative probe stabilization system is now combined
with the new contoured removable delay line and irrigation capability to
provide excellent sound transmission on piping surfaces as small as 4
inches in diameter. Furthermore, the DLA probe corrosion probe can now
be ordered in a high temperature version good for up to 150°C (300°F).

Dual Array Pitch-Catch Technique


Like dual element UT probes, dual linear array probes incorporate separate transmitting and receiving elements mounted
on delay lines that are cut at an angle. This configuration generates beams that focus beneath the surface of the test piece,
which considerably decreases the amplitude of surface reflection. This results in increased near-surface resolution, providing
higher probability of detection of critical defects such as pitting, creep damage, and HIC (hydrogen induced cracking).

Pitch-Catch Pulse-Echo

Compared to phased array pulse-echo, the pitch-catch technique produces very little interface echo, offering better near-surface resolution.
