USM 22 and USM 25can handle your testing requirements
Pitting at a depth of 5.64 mm (0.222”) on steam piping(diameter 76 mm (3”), wall thickness 10 mm (0.4”)
Flaw echo from a weld with multiple DAC; 7.2 dBabove the recorded DAC curve.
Crack echo from a 2.4 m (94.5”) long shaft at adepth of approx. 780 mm (30.7”).
Precision thickness measurement between 1stand 2nd backwall echo (1.99 mm/0.078“) withthe option data logger and tolerance monitor.
For example: lamination testingand remaining wall thicknessmeasurement – USM 22B
The USM 22B couldn’t be betterprepared both for remaining wallthickness measurements on tanksand tubes using dual-element (TR)probes and for lamination tests onmetal sheets or plates. Due to thehigh pulse repetition frequency andthe fast A-scan display, laminationsor even small reflectors - e.g. pitswill not be overlooked.
For example: large forgings –USM 22L
Ultrasonic testing of large workpiecesis often disturbed by so-called“phantom echoes” that simulate flawechoes. Apart from a high pulsercapacity, a successful test requires avariable pulse repetition frequency.
For example: wall thickness measure-ment – USM 25 with Data Logger
Two gates help to carry out thick-ness measurements with a highaccuracy using two successivebackwall echoes, the minimumthickness measured is captured dur-ing scanning. Protective coatings -e.g. paint – does not have to be re-moved during this. A third gatecontrols the automatic A-scan freezeif required, e.g. with high-tempera-ture measurements or spot weldtesting. Optional tolerance limits canbe input to monitor the current read-ing. If required, the correspondingA-scan is saved together with themeasured value. Practical report listfunctions allow a quick overview ofall stored data – including a printoutof reports. Thickness measurementscan be stored in linear or grid form –including an individual description ofeach measurement location andcomments on the result.
For example: welt testing - USM 25
USM 22 and USM 25 are well-suitedfor weld testing. The USM 25 DAC isequipped with the necessary func-tions for flaw location and evalua-tion according to international testspecifications. All flaw coordinatesare displayed in the measurementline: sound path (reduced) projectiondistance, flaw depth. In addition, therecording threshold violation in dBabove DAC is zoomed in the A-scanas required.

UltrasonicFlaw Detector
USM Series
Analog feeling,digital performance.
The operating concept.
This may remind you of the “good oldtimes“; but of course it’s all high-techbehind it: two rotary knobs, perfectlyfamiliar to many inspectors, form thebasis of the operating concept andgive a sort of “analog feeling“. Theserotary knobs enable you to quickly setthe instrument; the necessary func-tions are directly accessible.
The screen.
You’ll brighten up when you look atthis LCD screen: it’s bright, provideshigh contrast – and also has a highresolution with 320 x 240 pixels.
Functions and performancefeatures: USM 22.
Do you only need the basic functionsfor your test job – as with an analogultrasonic flaw detector for example?In that case, the USM 22 is the rightinstrument for you. With its largefrequency range from 0.5 to 15 MHz(3 dB) and its very high measure-ment resolution of 0.01 mm (0.001"),it has the best ultrasonic featuresavailable. Data memory – to storeinstrument settings and test results– and an RS232 interface for datacommunication with printer and PCare also on board. You can print yourtest report as usual by simply press-ing a key.
Increased performancefeatures: USM 25.
The frequency range is increased to20 MHz on the USM 25, and therange of functions is considerablyextended. For example: 0.5 mm mini-mum calibration range for steel, twoindependent monitor gates with in-terface-echo trigger and gate magni-fier, RF display mode, two-point cali-
bration, and all functions for testsusing angle-beam probes, includingflaw position calculation. Plus: easymanagement of the data memory,namely alphanumeric designation ofdata sets, editable fields for furtheridentification, and display of all datasets in a directory list. An additionalinterface for the output of gate alarmor trigger signal and for test datarounds off the USM 25.
It gets even more user-friendly withthe USM 25 DAC which offers thepossibilities of generating and usingdistance-amplitude curves for the
evaluation of echo indications, in-cluding direct switchover as TCG.Added to this is the DGS evaluationon the USM 25S. There are 24 probesstored for the calculation of a DGScurve, with one probe being individu-ally programmable for each data set.
Plus thickness data logger.
The application range is extendedeven further by the optional DataLogger: you can simultaneously usethe USM 25 for recording and docu-mentating thickness readings.
The USM25 screen innormal and zoom mode.
The A-scan, the fourselected functions, and themeasurement line with the
current results of theevaluated echo display areshown. In the zoom mode,
the A-scan is enlarged overthe entire screen; the
menus are not displayed.
State-of-the-art technologiesfor all requirements.
With the USM family, we havedeveloped exceptional ultrasonic in-struments that bring even more tech-nical progress into your field testingapplications. In a dialog with you asusers, the instrument family has beencontinuously extended by new modelsand options. This makes a choice offlaw detectors available for the com-plete range of ultrasonic applications.
Innovative Technology
The miniaturization of the electron-ics has made it possible to accom-modate extensive ultrasonic perfor-mance in a small package. Weighingonly 3.5 pounds with C–cell batter-ies, the USM’s provide maximumportability for comfortable testingunder any conditions.
State-of-the-art LCD technology willensure that the instrument screenprovides optimum readability evenin direct sunlight – however unfa-vorable the viewing angle or dis-tance from the screen. With its re-fresh rate of 60 Hertz, the A-scandisplay is very fast.
The concept – simple and good!
The USM 22 and USM 25 weighlittle, their handling is uncompli-cated, and their operation is easy tograsp. They have small dimensions,and their costs are low. Moreover,they consistently implement newideas regarding housing design andoperating concept. The basis of thisconcept: simplicity, and yet uncom-promising performance.
Three versions –which one and for what?
The USM 22 with its three versions ischaracterized by simplicity even inits function scope:USM 22B for all standard applica-tions, USM 22L for testing on largeworkpieces or strongly sound-attenu-ating materials, and USM 22F for thefat and tissue layer measurement infatstock breeding.
In the USM 25, you will find manyother functions for demanding appli-cations. The USM 25 DAC offers moreuser-friendliness for the evaluationwith its multiple DAC and TCG fea-tures. Apart from these, the USM 25Salso offers a DGS evaluation option.
