Sonatest PSLF Single Compression Transducers

Sonatest PSLF Single Compression Transducers

Brand: Sonatest Ltd.

The PSLF series consists of single normal beam compression wave contact transducers equipped with a polymer membrane protected face option for 'soft nose' testing applications. Built with circular composite crystals and medium damping for general-purpose use, these transducers ensure excellent acoustic coupling on rough, uneven, or curved test specimens while protecting the crystal face from premature wear.

Key Features

  • Single Normal Beam Design: Engineered for direct 0° straight-beam compression wave contact inspection.

  • Circular Composite Crystal: Utilises a circular composite crystal element for enhanced signal sensitivity and penetration.

  • Polymer Membrane Protection: Features a replaceable soft polymer membrane for ‘soft nose’ applications to optimize coupling on coarse surfaces.

  • General Purpose Damping: Medium damped design suited for standard ultrasonic testing applications.

  • Operating Temperature: Rated for operation in environments up to a maximum temperature of 50°C (120°F).

Common Applications

  • Non-destructive testing of castings

  • Flaw detection in forgings

  • Bearing liner evaluation on white metal bearings

  • High-temperature and rough-surface surface surveys
