1.2 Description and operation of the instrument
The present operation manual (from now on referred to as "operation manual") contains:
·
technical specifications,
·
description of design,
·
and operation principle of the А1207 Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge (from now on
referred to as "thickness gauge" or “instrument”),
·
as well as information required for proper working with the instrument.
Carefully read the operation manual before working with the instrument.
Only properly trained personnel who carefully read the operational documentation and
understand general principles of the ultrasonic vibration propagation theory should be
allowed to work with the instrument.
Test problems must be identified, inspection layouts shall be chosen, conditions of
performing inspection using similar materials shall be estimated, etc., for proper
ultrasonic inspection.
Continuous improvement of the instrument functions and its reliability and usability
sometimes results in minor changes that are not reflected in the current version of the
operation manual. Therefore, they do not affect the technical specifications of the
instrument.
1.2.1
The intended use of the instrument
1.2.1.1 Intended use and operation range
Thickness gauges are pocket-type portable ultrasonic gauges of general-purpose.
The instruments are designed to perform wall thickness measurements of boilers,
containers, pressure-operated vessels, hull plates, and other items made of black and
non-ferrous metals, as well as small-diameter metal and plastic pipes (from 20 mm) with
even and corroded surfaces with roughness Rz160 and minimum bending radius from
10 mm.
One can use the instrument under laboratory, field, and workshop conditions in various
industries. Please be sure to perform the surface pre-treatment using couplant. Contact
lubricants can be as follows: multiple oils, water, glycerin, special contact liquids, and
ultrasonic testing gels, etc.
