SONO 950

SONO 950 provides coupling for high temperature thickness gauging. SONO 950 will maintain acoustic coupling at high temperatures beyond 15 seconds, to give ample time for obtaining good thickness readings. In most cases, the signal strength actually increases with time, to the point of thermal decomposition.

Note: For best results, allow a few seconds of "melt time" before taking reading. Signal attenuation may occur if used at lower than recommended temperatures.

SONO 950

  • Less smoke than SONO 900
  • Provides an extended time window for longer inspections or to optimize thickness readings at high temperatures
  • Non-toxic, non irritating formula provides inspection safety
  • Medium viscosity paste
  • No Perfluorocarbons or fluorinated materials, which can cause adverse health effects at high temperatures.
  • Remove excess couplant from transducer and other surfaces using a cloth like material that does present a fire hazard.
  • Do not use solvent based cleaners on hot surfaces!

    * A couplant's upper temperature range for short duration thickness gaging is higher than when used for flaw detection. When testing on vertical or overhead surfaces, a thicker grade of couplant is likely to stay in place, but thinner grade generally performs better on flat surfaces. No Sonotech couplants contain perfluorocarbons; thus "polymer fume fever" is not an operator hazard. Hot couplants can cause burns; therefore, gloves and goggles are recommended when working with hot surfaces.
