Description

The Olympus OmniScan MX Ultrasonic Flaw Detector is a portable tool designed for flaw detection. It has a high acquisition rate and can perform ultrasound, phased array, and eddy current inspections.

Technicians rent this device for many tests. It can perform TOFD, pulse-echo, o-degree, c-scan, and various eddy current and phased array tests. These tests are used in avionic and military applications.

The Olympus OmniScan MX has a built-in connector. This connector identifies the connected probe. It automatically sets the probe to the right frequency. This helps reduce the risk of damaging the probe.

The Olympus OmniScan MX models display your test results on a 21 cm LCD screen with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels. They store data using a CompactFlash card or a standard USB storage device. These models provide at least 6 hours of run time with two batteries.

The OmniScan MXA Field-Proven, Dependable Instrument

Thickness and Flaw Inspection Solutions

OmniScan MXA Field-Proven

The OmniScan® MX is a reliable tool used worldwide. It has thousands of units in use. This instrument is designed to handle tough inspection conditions. Compact and lightweight, its two Li-ion batteries provide up to 6 hours of manual or semi-automated inspection time.

The highly legible 8.4 in. (213 mm) real-time color display of the OmniScan MX enables you to see defects and details under any light conditions. Use the instrument’s easy interface with the scroll knob and function keys. You can also connect a USB mouse to help with the inspection analysis.

Please note that product availability varies by region. Contact your local Evident sales office for more information.

ECA is just like ECT: Large Coverage, Fast Scanning, and Higher Probability of Detection

Eddy current array (ECA) Olympus Omniscan MX2

Eddy current array (ECA) technology uses multiple traditional bridge or reflection probe coils. This allows for larger coverage in one inspection pass.

Each ECA probe model is made to detect specific defects. It works well along the whole length of the probe. With the OmniScan MX ECA, you can utilize ECA probes at fast manual inspection speeds, providing a powerful and productive inspection experience with color representation and archiving capabilities.

Instant Reporting and Easy Archiving

screen5

The OmniScan MX features built-in reporting at the touch of a key. Reports can also be configured and customized by advanced users. The factory-default report format includes a screenshot and chosen data fields. This design aims to reduce the need for customization.

You can easily archive inspection data files. At any time, whether during acquisition or analysis, just press a key. This will instantly save the data to the instrument’s memory card.

Perform data analysis quickly and efficiently with mouse input—archive files to a PC with the help of a CompactFlash reader.
