LYNCS Scanner General Specifications
Inspection Surface Specifications
The condition of the inspection surface is critical to the quality of the results obtained from
the scanner.
The ferrous inspection surface to be inspected must:
•
have a maximum surface temperature of no greater than +80°C (176°F).
•
have a minimum surface temperature of no lower than -30°C (-22°F).
•
have a maximum ambient temperature of no greater than 50°C (122°F).
•
have a minimum ambient temperature of no lower than -20°C (-4°F).
•
have a minimum diameter of 100mm (4in) up to flat plate for circumferential scanning.
•
have a minimum radial clearance of 110mm (4.3in).
•
be free of excess rust, scale, ferrous debris, oil, ice, frost or any organic growth.
System Storage
When storage of the LYNCS system is required, it must be stored:
•
in the supplied transit cases.
•
with all components in a clean and dry state prior to packing.
•
away from water and harsh environment conditions.
•
in a minimum storage temperature of no less than -10°C (14°F).
•
in a maximum storage temperature of no greater than 40°C (104°F).
•
in such a way as to avoid damage to the system.
System Encoder Resolution
When connecting the system to the PA UT instruments the encoder resolution must be set to 25.85
pts/mm (656.59 pts/in)
