The
200 Series
Contour Probes are rugged high performance instruments designed for
Magnetic Particle inspection to accepted Nondestructive testing standards.
INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION:
Basically, the Contour Probe is an electromagnet producing a
strong magnetic field. Placement of the two poles (legs) upon ferrous metal provides a path
for the intense magnetic field to pass from one pole to the other. The part completes the flux
path and becomes highly magnetized. Models A210, A210S and A48 produce strong
constant AC fields. Electronic circuitry contained within the molded housing of the DA200 and
DA200S models permits selection of a strong constant AC field, or high intensity half wave
rectified (DC) field. All Parker Contour Probes are designed with flexible legs that allow the
field to be "focused" at a precise area of inspection. The maximum leg spacing is 18 inches
(457 mm). All 200 series Contour Probes come equipped with a 10’ (3.048 m) power cord.
The DA200 and A210 are for use on 115VAC 50-60 Hz, single phase grounded power
source. Using an approved GFCI is recommended.
The DA200S and A210S are for use on 230VAC 50-60 Hz, single phase grounded power
source. The DA200S and A210S are sold without power cord plugs. Only locally approved
plugs should be used and installed by certified personnel. Using an approved GFCI is
recommended.
The A48 is for use on 42-48VAC 50-60 Hz, single phase grounded low voltage power source.
The A48 is sold without a power cord plug. Only locally approved plugs should be used and
installed by certified personnel. Using an approved GFCI is recommended.
