5. Basic Operation
The following sections describe the basic operation for the 45MG ultrasonic thickness
gage.
5.1
Setting Up the Transducer
The 45MG operates with a full line of single element (optional software) and dual
element transducers. The 45MG automatically recognizes standard D79X dual
element transducers, and automatically loads the appropriate predefined setup. The
predefined setup contains ultrasonic velocity for the stainless steel step block
supplied with the instrument. With dual element transducers, you need to perform a
transducer zero compensation.
For Single Element or High Penetration software options and single element
transducers, you need to manually recall an appropriate setup. The 45MG is factory
shipped with default conditions for the purchased transducers set up using an
approximate sound velocity for the stainless steel test block provided with the
instrument. The default conditions are selected to facilitate instrument usage for your
applications.
To set up the transducer
1.
Plug the transducer into the transducer connector(s) on the top of the 45MG case
(see Figure 5-1 on page 52), using only T/R 1 for a single element transducer.
