Krautkramer USN 58R
The ultrasonic instrument for the workshop,
even for automated inspections.
High-contrast, crystal clear …
and optimum readability from any
viewing angle, all this is provided by the
EL display of the USN 58R. This display
technology does not only make this
ultrasonic instrument the best choice
for shop use but also for outdoor
applications at very low temperatures:
the USN 58R loves the cold and
operates even at -20 °C / -4 °F without
any problem.
It goes without saying that the display can
be further optimized depending on the
application site: you can set the
brightness low or high, or you can choose
the inverted display mode for fatigue-
proof work. Thanks to the electronic
parallax-free grid, you will see every detail
even at an unfavorable viewing angle and
from a greater distance.

Automatic, multi-channel …
are requirements that the USN 58R is
also able to meet: the instrument is
qualified for automated applications by
its two monitor gates provided with
configurable real-time outputs - in
combination with the "SmartView"
feature which ensures maximum flaw
detectability, especially at high scanning
speeds.
Multi-channel test systems can be quite
easily set up by synchronizing several
instruments and, provided with the
Interface Echo option, these systems are
also suitable for an immersion test. This
makes the USN 58R an economic
solution in this extended field of
application for portable ultrasonic
instruments.

Ultrasonics
Universal, flexible ...
are the attributes characterizing the
USN 58R thanks to its other options:
the Backwall Echo Attenuation feature,
specifically including the backwall echo
in the flaw evaluation by reducing the
gain, makes the USN 58R a good
choice, especially for the inspection of
castings and forgings.
Another focal area of application is the
weld inspection - of course with amplitude
evaluation and precise flaw location on
flat and curved components - or with the
additional options DAC/TCG or DGS for
ultrasonic testing according to the majority
of national or international standard
specifications.
