Technology & Features
QS Small Angle-Beam Transducers
Model QS features Quick Swap screw-in wedge attachment. They are available with top-mounted Microdot (MD) or new MCX low-profile swivel connectors. Piezocomposite (C series*) offer superior penetration and signal-to-noise ratio in highly-attenuative and coarse-grain materials.
Angle-beam transducers and their wedges generate shear (transverse) waves at the specified angle in a given test material to detect flaws that cannot be detected by a straight-beam transducer. Shear waves are produced by refracting a longitudinal wave in a precision-machined acrylic wedge that also minimizes wedge noise.
Typical Applications
- Weld Inspection
- Tubes and Pipes
- Shafts
- Turbine Blades
- Wheel Rims
Series
*C Series – Composite (Piezocomposite) Series of transducers have superior sensitivity and penetration especially in highly-attenuative materials. C Series have both higher resolution, sensitivity, and have wide bandwidth (60-120% at -6db) due to the lower acoustic impedance of the material. They couple more efficiently into plastic wedges, delay lines, and water.
