Immersion special transducers refer to a variety of transducers that conduct many specific applications such as measuring wall thickness, inspection of aluminum plating, or multi-element array flaw detection. This group contains the following transducer types: side looking case, paintbrush, i-R style and XMS.
Side Looking Case
Side Looking Immersion Transducers
- Ideal for measuring wall thicknesses of pipe where access to the outer diameter is limited
- Small outer diameter allows for greater accessibility in tight spaces than standard immersion transducers with reflector mirrors
- Sound exit point is located at a 90° angle relative to the straight Microdot ® connector
- Probe extensions such as the F211 are available to lengthen the standard design

Paintbrush
Accuscan Paintbrush
- Large scanning index is ideal for inspections of aluminum or steel plate
- Sensitivity uniformity of better than ±1.5 dB is maintained across the transducer face (sensitivity peaks at the edges are also controlled)

XMS
Extra Miniature (XMS) Transducer
The XMS transducer is an extremely small 10 MHz immersion transducer with a 3 mm (0.118") diameter by 3 mm (0.118") long case. This transducer is ideal for extremely tight access areas or for multi-element array flaw detection. The transducer assembly has a special connector attached to the 1 m (38") long potted cable. An adaptor is also available to interface with most commercial ultrasonic equipment.
