C-Clamp encoder

The C-Clamp encoder is an economical universal accessory for single axis inspections requiring no tools for setup and operation. Ideally suited to linear manual phased array inspections it can also fit a broad range of ultrasonic transducers and wedges. The compact design allows use in areas with limited access.

The C-Clamp encoder arms can be quickly adjusted to the tramsducer or wedge width and then locked and clamped with thumbscrews. The waterproof wheel encoder is then fitted either behind or alongside the clamp dependent upon the inspection needs. The encoder is spring loaded onto the surface with the spring tension adjustable via the attachment thumb screw.

This simple and versatile encoding device is ideal for single-axis manual phased array inspections including: Pipe and Vessel welds, Bolt hole crack detection, Linear array corrosion mapping, B and C-scans.

Odi

The Odi encoder is used to provide encoded position of a probe along the scan axis/ The small size of the Odi makes it a perfect tool for hard to access areas or where space is limited.

The Odi has a clamp system so it can be used with any manufacturer's wedge and probe combination. This also allows it to be clamped to a scanning frame to provide encoded position.

Odi-II

The Odi-II is used to provide encoded position of two probes along the scan axis and its small size makes it a perfect tool for manual TOFD scanning.

The Odi-II uses Jireh's standard probe holder arms, which are compatible with most manufacturer's wedge and probe combinations. It is also available with a variety of encoder output cable options, making it compatible with most major UT instruments. The Odi-II is the perfect solution to carry out manual TOFD scans.

STIX - Upgradable Weld Scanner

Upgradable solution to scan circular pipe welds using TOFD, Phased Array or combined techniques at your fingertips!

This exclusive modular approach starts from a simple and functional STIX 2 wedge magnetic scanner that can be upgraded to fit any required configurations by adding one of the modular options.

Any Sonatest Phased Array and TOFD wedges can be accommodated and the integrated latch allows easy PCS (Probe Centre Spacing) adjustments and scanner installation. A Park brake is provided to hold the scanner in any desired location. All the wheels (magnetic or not) are coated with urethane to prevent foreign debris from hindering smooth rolling of the scanner.

Each STIX system includes a spring loaded module to ensure accurate positioning. The encoder output is fully compatible with Sonatest instruments.

Stix - Long Seam Weld Scanner

The STIX - Long Seam WELD scanner is specially designed to translate Phased Array and/or TOFD probes along both sides of a pipe longitudinal seam weld.Available in two versions, this magnetic scanner can handle 2 or 4 probe wedges for longitudinal scanning down to a 150 mm (6 in) pipe diameter. It can also handle flat surface inspection as well as circumferential scanning down to 275 mm (10 in) pipe diameter.

MultiMag

This manually-operated magnetic scanner is ideal for weld inspection of steel pipes using multiple probes including phased array, TOFD and pulse echo. The MultiMag can be used on 3" pipes up to flat plate. The compact scanner is highly versatile and can carry up to four ultrasonic probes.

The MultiMag can operate with any multi-channel flaw detection system. It includes a sprung-loaded wheel encoder that is wired to suit the customer's instrumentation.

Optional accessories include a guide chain to maintain scanner alignment and direction or a laser guide for the operator to track a weld line by eye.

MagMan Scanner

This manually-operated magnetic wheeled scanner is ideal for weld inspection of pipes using multiple probes including phased array, TOFD and pulse-echo.

The MagMan can be used on 1.5" pipes up to flat plate. This robust scanner can carry up to twelve ultrasonic probes.

Swift

Swift is a compact single axis, magnetic wheeled scanner that holds a pair of TOFD or Phased Array probes for weld inspection. This low profile scanner operates on 3" pipe (Ø88.9 mm) up to flat.

The Swift provides a simple scanner design capable of accurate high performance inspections in difficult-access areas and comes complete with a spring-loaded waterproof wheel encoder to provide accurate position recording for defect sizing of welds.

Rotix

The ROTIX - Chain Weld Scanner kit is designed to provide encoded position of probes circumferentially around piping for weld inspection on ferrous or non-ferrous inspection surfaces.

It is completely configurable for phased array, TOFD and conventional UT with single or multiple probes. Since this package includes a set of 8 magnetic wheels, this scanner can also perform inspection without the chain on ferrous materials like a standard magnetic scanner.
