IRIS UT Kits

IRIS UT Kits use focused ultrasound to detect corrosion, pitting and wall thinning in ferrous and non-ferrous tubing.

Overview

Product overview

IRIS UT Kits are internal rotary ultrasonic inspection systems for examining ferrous and non-ferrous tubing. Focused ultrasonic transducers and turbines support inspection across a range of tube diameters and wall thicknesses, with corrosion, pitting and thinning as principal targets.

Transducers are available in three frequencies suited to different wall thicknesses and three focal lengths suited to different tube diameters. The turbines are designed to exploit the Ectane 2 acquisition rate across a range of rotation speeds while reducing bubble formation. Spring-loaded centering devices keep the inspection assembly centered inside the tube.

Used with Magnifi software and Ectane, the IRIS solution can be optimized for sizing deep indications by enabling or disabling UT A-scan rectification and adjusting other parameters. Full and Micro kit configurations provide different combinations of turbines, transducers, centering devices and cables; water pumps, filter units and an encoder are sold separately.

Key Features

Key capabilities

Ferrous and non-ferrous inspection

Ultrasonic inspection detects corrosion, pitting and thinning in both ferrous and non-ferrous tubing.

Focused transducer selection

Three frequencies and three focal lengths accommodate different wall thicknesses and tube diameters.

Turbine design

Turbines support a range of rotation speeds and are designed to significantly reduce bubble formation.

Spring-loaded centering

Three spring-loaded arms linked in two directions maintain centering within the tube.

Removable centering devices

Except for the extra-small device, centering devices can be removed from the shaft without losing components or arm pressure.

Deep-indication sizing

Magnifi and Ectane allow UT A-scan rectification and other parameters to be adjusted to optimize sizing of deep indications.

Cable selection

Kits can be equipped with an assortment of cables for different inspection conditions.
