OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector delivers improved power and performance to Olympus field-proven phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) product line.
This 64-channel instrument has the pulser capacity to drive phased array (PA) probes with a larger number of elements, increasing the data acquisition speed for total focusing method (TFM) imaging. Users can exploit its increased capabilities to expand and diversify their application portfolio.
The Olympus OmniScan X3 64 Phased Array Flaw Detector was introduced and released by Olympus Corporation in February 2202. The OmniScan X3 flaw detector has the tools to help you complete your work efficiently. Its range of applications include welds, pipelines, pipes, corrosion-resistant alloys, corrosion mapping, HTHA inspection, detection of stepwise cracking, composite inspection, and flaw imaging.
- Compatible with existing probes and scanners
- 32:128PR model, featuring 64-element TFM
- 16:64PR and 16:128PR also available
- Up to 8 groups, 1,024 focal laws
- Compatible with MX2/SX files for convenience
- 64 GB internal storage, extendable with an external USB drive
Features:
- Powerful software that’s intuitive for new and existing OmniScan users with a modern, simplified menu structure that minimizes button presses.
- Live TFM Envelope Processing. The instrument’s unique envelope processing provides clear, high-resolution TFM images of flaws.
- Facilitate Flaw Interpretation and Sizing. Using different TFM modes (wave sets) in the same inspection provides more chances to detect oddly oriented indications.
- Confirm Your Coverage in Advance. The acoustic influence map (AIM) tool provides you with an instant visual model of the sensitivity based on your TFM mode, probe, settings, and simulated reflector.
- Get to Work, Quickly. The onboard scan plan tool helps you visualize your inspection before you begin.
- Improved Fast Calibration. The OmniScan X3 calibration menus track the signals at high speed. You can perform multiple group calibrations in minutes with minimal frustration
- Harness the Power of Your PC. OmniPC™ software offers a suite of advanced tools, such as a side-by-side view that enables you to compare two files onscreen at the same time to maximize the power of your PC when analyzing data.
Applications:
- In-service and construction welding
- Pressure vessels
- Process pipes
- Wind tower
- Structural construction
- Corrosion-resistant alloys and cladded materials (austenitic, nickel, and other coarse-grained materials)
Power You Can Carry
The high portability and enhanced performance of the OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector increase inspection productivity. It can process TFM images up to four times as fast as its predecessor yet comes in the same rugged and easily transportable box. On job sites with limited or restricted space, users will appreciate that the OmniScan X3 64 unit is compact and less cumbersome than other 64-channel devices. Inspectors can also remain on site longer and perform bigger scanning jobs without transferring data, thanks to the large 1 TB onboard storage.
Ease Challenging and Advanced Applications
Facilitating complex and thick part or weld applications, the instrument’s full 64-element aperture PA and 128-element aperture TFM enables users to optimize advanced Dual Linear Array (DLA) and Dual Matrix Array (DMA) probes. To save time during setup, all models in the OmniScan X3 series have integrated DLA and DMA support.
Smaller defects are easier to distinguish using the OmniScan X3 64 flaw detector’s high-resolution PA and TFM imaging. Accommodating lower frequency probes, the OmniScan X3 64 unit can increase penetration in attenuative materials while reducing signal saturation. These improved detection capabilities assist monitoring for early-stage flaws, such as high-temperature hydrogen attack (HTHA).
Optimized Workflow for Large Parts
When applications require advanced analysis, the entire PA inspection workflow can be performed using Olympus’ WeldSight software for greater efficiency. With the WeldSight Remote Connect app installed on the OmniScan X3 64 unit, users can instantly view the acquired data on a PC, exploiting the customizable user interface and software tools that facilitate specialized inspection procedures, including new-fabrication welds in pressure vessels
