The P-scan Stack System’s technical specifications
The P-scan Stack System with phased array represents a completely new way of thinking when it comes to automated ultrasonic inspection. The Stack System beats all existing automated phased array systems on technical specs. As a result, you can perform high-precision inspections quickly and accurately – even in the most challenging environments.
Inspect challenging materials
With the highest dynamic range and amplitude resolution available, you know you’ll never miss a signal, no matter how high or low the amplitude. The high frequency range and pulser voltage of the phased array channels enable you to inspect a wide range of materials, including challenging materials that you couldn’t previously inspect. And, with high data throughput and unlimited data file size, you get faster inspections, no matter how big the test object. You’ll find all this in the lightest and most robust all-in-one system available.
Below you will find fully specified tables with all the technical information of the entire Stack System. Scroll down and read about the processors, batteries, pump, software and power.
