with Waveform Display
The Panametrics-NDT™
Model 25DL PLUS ultrasonic precision thickness gage provides cost-effective
solutions in applications where the opposite side of the test material is
difficult or impossible to reach. An important benefit of this handheld
unit is its ability to make thickness measurements on many materials in a
wide variety of shapes and sizes. A large Liquid Crystal Display displays
both the live ultrasound waveform and the thickness reading. Operation of
this handheld gage is intuitive with a color-coded keypad and direct-access
number keys. One of the many unique features of this gage, Application
Auto-Recall, allows the user to select and recall any of the stored
standard or custom transducer setups in the gage’s memory. This permits
easy switching among our full line of contact, delay line, and immersion
transducers to solve an almost infinite number of measurement problems.

INTERNAL DATALOGGER
The 25DL’s internal datalogger stores,
recalls, and transmits 1,750 waveforms and more than 18,000 thickness
readings along with alphanumeric Identificationcodes.
WAVEFORM DISPLAY
The A-Scan shows
both the live waveform and the thickness reading, which is ideal for
turbine blade inspections and any other application where the user needs
to ensure proper transducer alignment.

MEASUREMENTS
Mode 1:
Time interval between excitation
pulse and first backwall echo. Using contact transducers
Mode 2:
Time interval between the first interface echo after the excitation
pulse and the first backwall echo. Using delay line or immersion
transducers
Mode 3:
Time interval between successive backwall echoes following the first
interface echo after the excitation pulse. Using delay line and
immersion transducers
