Detailed Overview
For inspection across all applications, the Masterscan D-70 provides the inspector with a fully functional and capable set of instruments and software. In a portable enclosure, features include encoded B-Scan, Advanced Thickness recording, and Dryscan capabilities.
Upgrades and new features can be implemented in the workplace, enhancing flexibility and decreasing downtime. Key features of the Masterscan range include high near-surface resolution, penetrating power (450V pulser square and spike), and outstanding signal to noise ratio.
A versatile digital flaw detector with a high-resolution screen for advanced weld and material inspection.
- This high-specification instrument provides comprehensive flaw detection capabilities, including DAC/TVG and various flaw sizing methods, with a clear A-Scan display for waveform analysis.
- Its robust design and extensive feature set make it a go-to unit for critical NDT applications like aerospace and power generation.
- The package includes the flaw detector unit, a battery pack and charger and a calibration certificate, all in a rugged case.
- Features a low noise amplifier and high PRF (Pulse Repetition Frequency) for fast, reliable scanning.
Primary Uses & Functions
A high-performance, rugged UT instrument used for flaw detection, thickness measurement, and weld inspection in critical NDT applications. Its core function is providing highly reliable, code-compliant flaw sizing and location data.
Top Features & Benefits
Reliable, Rugged and robust
A key component of the flaw detector is its capacity to function in challenging conditions with demonstrated dependability, which is improved by the Masterscan’s exceptional battery performance, which can last up to 10.5 hours from full charge. Excellent water resistance is provided by the Masterscan’s enclosure, which is made of automotive-grade impact-resistant materials. MIL810-G criteria for explosive testing have been met, and environmental testing has verified that the device is completely operational at temperatures above 55ºC.
Advanced Defect Sizing Tools as Standard
The Masterscan D-70 is primarily used for pipe and weld inspection, and it has the newest software tools for fault sizing. Utilising integrated sizing software expedites inspection and cuts down on analysis time.
Sizing Techniques and Software Options include:
- DAC (Standard)
- Split DAC & DGS/AVG (Option)
- TCG (Option)
- Backwall Echo Attenuation (BEA) Option (requires TCG)
