Adjustable QuickLink Chain
Using QuickLinks and an adjustable QuickLink buckle, pipes and tubes ranging from 7.6 - 96.5 cm (3 - 38 in) in diameter can be effortlessly scanned. Quicklinks facilitate swift and hassle-free connections, and assembling various chain configuration lengths is a breeze.
QuickLinks
With QuickLinks, you can effortlessly connect and disconnect with ease. Our user-friendly design ensures a seamless experience - simply latch them to connect and press a button to disconnect.
Frame Bars
45 cm (17.7 in) and 20 cm (7.8 in) frame bars allow dual and single probe scanning configurations, providing flexibility to suit your inspection needs. To enhance the scanner's functionality, the dovetail groove of the frame bar serves as a mounting point for probe holders, stabilizer wheels, and various accessories.
Slip Joint Probe Holders
These outstanding low-profile probe holders are compatible with most major types of phased array probes. Their user-friendly design allows for easy probe centre spacing adjustment, probe installation and an integrated latch to raise and lower the probes when appropriate.
Single Probe Inspection
The shorter 20 cm frame bar is perfect for those tight access applications. With this compact design, you can efficiently perform single probe inspections with a smaller scanner width, allowing you to navigate even the most challenging spaces.
