Overview: The TD PS45 Pocket-Scan is a multi-function ultrasonic inspection system designed for various applications including pressure vessel welds, pipeline welds, structural welds, hydrogen damage surveys, corrosion surveys, forgings & castings, aircraft components, and complex geometries.
Applications: The system is suitable for inspecting pressure vessel welds, pipeline welds, structural welds, hydrogen damage surveys, corrosion surveys, forgings & castings, aircraft components, and complex geometries.
Software: The system includes software for Pulse Echo, ToFD, Strip-Scan, Long Range (Creep Wave & Corrosion Mapping), and TD Super-View.
Features: The TD PS45 is portable yet highly capable, featuring an Ethernet link to a laptop, extensive off-line analysis tools, built-in reporting, 2-axis encoder & video tracking, and up to 32 conventional channels.
Techniques: The system supports ToFD, Pulse Echo, Corrosion Mapping, and Weld Zone Discrimination.
