Eddy Current Flaw Detectors

The Nortec 500 Series eddy current aw detectors incorporate a full range of features: internal balance coils, VGA output connector (for heads up displays, monitors, and projectors), and a USB interface for rapid information transfer. The Nortec 500 also includes PowerLink, for automatic probe recognition and program set-up. The Nortec 500 improves on previous Nortec eddy current instruments and is available in four congurations. Each conguration includes a USB port and increased resolution with reduced noise. Internal balance coils allow use of inexpensive absolute probes without the need for external balance coil adapters. A builtin preamp adds extra gain when needed for difcult tests. VGA output allows for the display to be projected or viewed on a standard computer screen. The optional remote-null adapter adds convenience by allowing the probe to be nulled and the instrument screen erased from the probe. Where weight is critical, the smaller battery lightens the instrument to 1.2 kg (2.8 lbs) while keeping the full VGA resolution and display size. The Nortec 500 delivers basic single frequency eddy current inspection including external outputs. The Nortec 500C adds digital conductivity and coating thickness measurement capability in addition to basic single frequency eddy current inspection. The Nortec 500S builds on the foundation of the N500C and adds the ability to use rotating scanners. The Nortec 500D adds dual frequency capabilities to all the functions of the N500S. 500 500C 500S 500D

The instrument is fully compatible with Nortec PowerLink probes. Can be set to trigger on positive or negative box, polar, or sweep alarm settings 1 to 3 box gates, polar, sweep, conductivity, and coating thickness Up to 200 traces can be stored for recall. The traces can be static or frozen and can contain up to 60 seconds of movement. The traces are stored with the date and time of capture. Up to 200 instrument set-ups may be stored and recalled. The date and time of storage is recorded with each set-up. Provides a custom congurable report header containing the display screen data and probe parameters including serial numbers (PowerLink probes only).

Power
Power requirements Available batteries Low battery protection Battery operating time 85 V to 240 V, 50 Hz to 60 Hz. Battery can be charged within the instrument or in an external charger. Charge typically takes 4 hours. 2.4 Ahr Li-ion or 8.8 Ahr Li-ion Display bar graph gas gauge indicates approximate operating time. A low battery annunciator indicates when approximately 10 minutes of operation time is left. 3 to 8 hours nominal depending on conguration and scanner usage
