Ultrasonic Detector with Phased Array Imaging

The EPOCH 1000 Series Digital Ultrasonic Flaw Detectors combines the highest level of performance for conventional portable flaw detection with the power of phased array imaging. The EPOCH 1000, 1000iR and 1000i feature a new horizontal case style with full VGA display, knob and navigation arrows for parameter adjustment, and full EN12668‑1 compliance. The advanced conventional ultrasonic functionality of the EPOCH 1000 series is augmented in the EPOCH 1000i with phased array imaging capabilities.
Key Features:
Available with Phased Array Imaging Package
EN12668-1 compliant
Over 30 digital receiver filter selections
6 kHz pulse repetition rate for high speed scanning
Automatic phased array probe recognition
Intuitive wedge delay and sensitivity calibration for all focal laws
Programmable analog/alarm outputs
IP66 environmental rating for harsh environments
Horizontal design with navigation panel and knob parameter adjustment
Digital high dynamic range receiver
Full VGA sunlight readable display
ClearWave™ Visual Enhancement Package for conventional A-scan interpretation
Reference and measurement cursors
Standard dynamic DAC/TVG
Standard onboard DGS/AVG
Advanced Ultrasound, Upgradable to Phased Array
The EPOCH 1000, EPOCH 1000iR, and EPOCH 1000i provide advanced conventional ultrasound capabilities for both the standard and advanced level inspector. These portable instruments can also be integrated into small systems for high speed scanning and single channel imaging. They come standard with a host of high performance features, including a 6 kHz maximum Pulse Rate Frequency (PRF) with single-shot measurements for accurate high speed scanning applications, tunable square wave pulser with PerfectSquare™ technology, and comprehensive digital filter sets for exceptional signal-to-noise clarity.
Rugged. Portable. Meets the Demands of the Toughest Inspection Environments!
The EPOCH 1000 Series is designed to meet the IP66 environmental rating. Tested for shock, vibration, explosive atmosphere, and wide temperature range, these instruments can withstand operation in harsh inspection conditions. Some of the EPOCH 1000 Series' other key physical features include:
Large, full VGA (640x480) resolution color transflective display for optimum viewing in low or bright lighting conditions
Rugged rubber handle for easy carrying
Durable instrument-mounted D-rings for chest harness use
Front and rear stands for table-top or steep inclined viewing
USB Client and Host ports for PC communication, direct printing and communication with peripheral devices
VGA output for presentations, training, and remote instrument monitoring
Programmable analog outputs, alarm outputs, and RS-232 communication
Standard internal, rechargeable lithium ion battery

FUTEK offers Load Cell with USB Output

FUTEK Advanced Sensor Technology, Inc. is pleased to present its LSB200 S-Beam Jr. Load Cell with a brand new USB Digital Interface with 16 bits resolution. With this improvement, FUTEK has once again shown its innovation by becoming one of the first Sensor manufacturers to offer a USB type solution for Strain Gage Based Load Cells. FUTEK's USB Sensor Solution provides an easy "Plug & Play" with basic software making the System Integration even simpler.
The Miniature S Beam Load Cell has become one of the signature products in the FUTEK Load Cell Series. This model is widely used in Medical Bag Weighing Applications as well as automated feed back control and inline processing applications. The perfect mixture of size, accuracy and of course the assurance of an overload protection feature makes this one of our most sought after models. With a height of only 0.75", the LSB200 Miniature S Beam Load Cell is a great selection where tight environments or space is a challenge. The Standard LSB200 Miniature S Beam Load Cell model has female threads, comes in 2024 Aluminum construction (10 gram - 10 lb) or 17-4 Stainless Steel (25 lbs – 100lbs), and a 5 ft 29 AWG 4 conductor shielded silicone cable. It is also available in metric threads.
With all of its design features the Miniature S Beam Load Cell has a high accuracy with a Nonlinearity of ±0.1%, deflection of 0.005" nominal and an operating temperature of -60° F to 200° F. Similar to our entire Load Cell product line this model is manufactured in the U.S. and uses metal foil strain gauge technology.
Product Highlights:
Compact sized S-Beam Load Cell
Available in both Aluminum or Stainless Steel
USB output in 16 bits resolution
External Matched output option available
Built In Overload Protection
Metric Threads Available
In both Tension & Compression
Utilizes Metal Foil Strain Gauge Technology
Weight: 0.3 oz (aluminum) / 0.9 oz (Steel)
FUTEK also offers Donut Load Cells, Pancake Load Cells, and In Line Load Cells as additional solutions in the Load Cell line. In addition to our Load Cells, FUTEK carries over 400 products covering various Pressure Sensors, Torque Sensors, Force Sensors and related Instruments.
