Immersion probes are designed to be used with a water wedge or in an immersion tank when the test part is partially or wholly immersed. They are longitudinal wave probes that can be set up for refracted shear-wave inspections using a Rexolite wedge.
Advantages
Acoustic impedance matches water
Design allows fitting on water wedges for easier coupling on many surfaces and an adjustable water path (when the part to be inspected cannot be immersed in a tank).
Linear scanning allows coverage of 30 mm to 90 mm in one line, with very high accuracy.
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel case
Waterproof guaranteed up to 1 m (3.28 ft) under water
Typical Applications
Inspection of thin plate or tubing (steel, aluminum, or other)
Composite inspection for delamination, disbonding, etc.
Inline thickness gaging
Automated scanning
