Sonatest SLM and PSLM Hard Face Transducers

Sonatest SLM and PSLM Hard Face Transducers

Rugged Medium and High Damped Transducers with Hard Face

Overview

The Sonatest SLM and PSLM Transducers project longitudinal waves for examination of flaws perpendicular to the sound beam. These contact-type transducers are excellent for detecting flaws in plate, shafts/axles and castings. The heavy duty stainless steel case provides longer service life.

Features

  • Single normal beam compression wave contact transducer
  • Medium Damped Lead Metaniobate Crystal - SLM
  • High Damped Piezo Composite Crystal - PSLM
  • Max operating temperature 50°C / 120°F
  • Hard ceramic wear face for higher durability
  • Connected via BNC, Lemo1, or Lemo 00
  • Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Case means a higher durability and longer service life than other transducers on the market

Applications

SLM and PSLM Transducers are generally used for flaw detections such as delamination or any other flaws that typically occur parallel with the material surface. Common applications include:

  • Plate
  • Castings
  • Forgings
