MicroPulse LT2

Built on the latest MicroPulse technology, the LT2 is a high performance ultrasonic inspection system. LT2 is a complete package with a small footprint, and Power over Ethernet technology but now also with Gigabit Ethernet for seriously fast data transfer and includes extended dynamic range modes. Ideally suited for machine mounted inspections.

Overview

LT2 is first of the next generation of MicroPulse instruments, but remains compatible with the existing family. Like the LT, it connects to a PC running the test application via Ethernet and takes its power from the Ethernet or from a separate 48V power source. LT2 has Gigabit Ethernet allowing for data transfers in excess of 40 MBytes/Sec and includes over 200 MBytes data buffer. Providing high resolution with up to 200 MHz true sampling and a range of user definable digital filters that complement the analogue filters. It is available as a 2-channel, a 4-channel or an 8-channel version. It is suitable for use in pulse-echo, TOFD and immersion inspections where because of its small size it may be gantry mounted.

Features

Small / Rugged / Lightweight / Low power
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
High resolution with up to 200 MHz true sampling
High data throughput up to 40 MBytes per second
Extended dynamic range modes
Inputs for 2 axes of encoders (single-ended or differential) for true pulse on position
Outputs digitised waveform and / or peak-detected data with up to 4 hardware gates
Over 200 MBytes data buffer
A range of digital filters also complements the analogue filters

Software Platforms

Compatible with existing inspection platforms such as EDF Energy’s MIPS/GUIDE and Winspect/InspectionWare from UTEX, the open data format and long-established MicroPulse command language mean that users also have the option to write their own applications, from Visual Studio to LabView, MatLab and Python.
