Ultrasonic Testing KARL DEUTSCHUltrasonic Flaw Detecor Echograph 1095 KARL DEUTSCH

The ideal instrument for manual ultrasonic testing is equipped with the advantages of digital testing technology: robust mechanical and electronic components with a large, high-contrast screen and convenient, practical operator guidance make it virtually indestructible even in rough operating conditions and outdoors. In addition, the device also has a depth compensation and a back wall echo drop.

Optional enhancements with encoder use: Strip Chart and TOFD
With strip chart recording, the position for the respective amplitude is determined by a linear encoder and transmitted digitally to the device. The TOFD method (time-of-flight diffraction technique) established for weld seam testing allows the determination of defect position and size by evaluating diffraction signals generated at the edges of dicontinuities located in the sound path.

Results of wall thickness measurements can be stored in the cells of a matrix grid. Measuring points of the part to be tested are assigned to corresponding cells of the matrix grid. A color-coded visualization of the measured values within the matrix allows for a quick assessment of the flaw distribution, e.g. during the measurement of residual wall thickness on a pipeline.

A user-friendly system guide also supports less experienced ultrasonic testers in probe handling and instrument adjustment: Simply activate the wizard and then follow the instructions on the screen.

The ECHOGRAPH 1095 …

• is lightweight (only 2 kg) and easy to handle
• is equipped with a very large and high-contrast
• TFT colour display (7” diagonal, resolution
  800 x 480 pix) with automatic brightness control
  and a large viewing angle
•  guides the user safely and self-explanatorily
  through the applications by means of its plain
  text menu
•  ensures extremely simple and complete adjustment with its user guidance
• supports the operator during probe handling
  and instrument adjustment
  (DAC, TCG, AWS, DGS, JIS, …)
• offers direct access to all important key functions
•  displays up to 6 measured values in large digits
•  is equipped with 3 monitors to measure amplitude and time-of-flight, as well as 3 associated
  control lamps on the front panel for monitoring
  threshold values
• enables to show reference echoes and to record
  echo dynamics
•  enables simple freezing and storaging of A-scans
• allows to move all 3 monitor gates in “freeze”
  mode and recalculates the displayed measured
  values accordingly
• comes with a convenient text editor which
  enables the storage of each data set with an
  individual file name
• contains a probe data base for easy entering of
  probe data, even for third-party probes
•  displays all functions in plain text on the screen,
  in addition to the 6 function keys
• permits selection of the pulse repetition
  frequency (PRF) from 10 Hz up to 5000 Hz:
  low PRF to avoid ghost echoes, and high PRF
  for high testing speed in case of automated
  testing
•  saves all data, e.g. screenshots as BMP files
  or series of measurements as CSV files, on a
  removable 8 GB SD flash card
•  evaluates the time-of-flight between transmitter
  pulse and an echo within the monitor gate
• measures the wall thickness between echoes of
  two monitors, either between echo peaks, edges
  or zero crossings
•  provides 0.01 mm indication accuracy in echoecho-mode
• allows evaluation also on curved surfaces
  (e.g. pipes)
•  provides a VGA output for external monitors
•  is delivered with a colour rubber protective
  holster to avoid sliding and for additional
  protection
• offers a separate adjustable gain in the third
  monitor, e.g. for individual backwall echo
  attenuation
•  has an adjustable square pulser with a pulse
  width automatically adapted to the frequency of
  the probe when it is loaded, but which can be
  changed manually as well
• features digital filters for optimal adaption to the
  probe
•  is dust-proof and provides protection against
  water jets according to IP65
