2.4.3.3 Installation of Transducer
For any of the fixtures above except for the SPCF, the last step in the installation is mounting the transducers into the
clamping fixture. Although not all transducer models are installed the same way, the following information provides
some general guidelines to help you. The face of the transducer must be in contact with the pipe because this is
where the ultrasonic signal is emitted. All Panametrics transducers include a dimple, depression as it is illustrated in
Figure 21 , drill point or slot on the opposite side of the transducer wedge face, for use as a guide in aligning and
securing the transducer. In addition, some transducers have scribe marks on the side to assist in setting the
transducer spacing. Figure 16 below shows an example of the dimple and scribe marks on the transducers.
