Ultrasonic Tranducers

Standard Transducers

Phoenix’s high performance transducers are reliable, reproducible and cost-effective. All are made to quality standards – EN12668, BS EN ISO 9001:2001, ESI, DIN, AWS & ASTM.

Single crystal shear wave – The single crystal range of shear wave transducers is ideal for the general purpose testing of welds, plate, pipe tubing, castings and forgings.

Gold series shear wave – Phoenix developed the gold series transducer to offer superior performance. The internal design has been modified and with the use of an interface layer gives significant improvements in performance.

Single compression wave – Single crystal compression wave transducers are available with either a ceramic or resin face and designed for testing rough, cast or pitted surfaces or highly abrasive materials when both increased sensitivity and resolution are required.

Twin compression wave – Twin crystal compression wave probes are suitable for use on corroded and pitted surfaces, thickness measurement, brazed joint testing and lamination detecting. High gain and resolution are achieved with a very low cross-talk.

Corrosion Mapping – Standard and high temperature corrosion mapping transducers complement the compression wave probe range and are housed in a durable steel case with side entry connections which enable the fitting of a detachable tracking facility.

TOFD – Phoenix offers an extensive range of transducers and wedges to meet the needs of technicians using the Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) technique.

High Temperature – High temperature probes allow rapid and cost effective testing by removing the need to cool surfaces in advance. The Phoenix high temperature range has a variety of transducers designed to perform reliably on surfaces at temperatures from 80°C to 200° C.

Flex Series – Flex transducers are thin, compliant ultrasonic probes that can conform to curved surfaces using fingertip pressure. This enables them to be used on non-flat components to provide improved ultrasound transmission compared to standard hard faced transducers.
