The ОКО-22М-UT ultrasonic flaw detector is a standalone electronic unit. It is intended for application in high-performance automated multi-channel NDT Systems, transportable systems (mechanized NDT systems) or for manual testing.
Application of the ОKО-22М-UT ultrasonic flaw detector
It is available in several flaw detector models that differ in the number of channels and in the volume of built-in functions for result processing.
As the flaw detector is designed in a form of a standalone device with the connection to the PC via the Ethernet port, several UT channels can be connected to the PC via the Switch unit. This enables creating UT multi-channel testing systems.
Technical capabilities of the flaw detector allow using it both in online and offline testing systems of stationary type.
