Improved performance of phased array imaging and imaging generated by the all-point focus method

The new OmniScan X3 64 provides Olympus' range of field-proven phased array fault finding devices with increased power and performance. Equipped with 64 channels, this device supports phased array (AP) probes equipped with a greater number of elements, which increases the acquisition speed required to obtain imaging generated by the All-Point Focusing (TFM) method. Inspectors can take advantage of these increased capabilities to expand and diversify the range of their inspection applications.

portable power

The high portability and improved performance of the OmniScan X3 64 fault finding device increases inspection productivity. It can process TFM images up to four times faster than its predecessor*, while being integrated into the same rugged and easy-to-carry package. On job sites where space is limited, inspectors will appreciate the more compact and less bulky design offered by the OmniScan X3 64 compared to other 64-channel devices. Inspectors can also work longer on-site and perform more scans without having to transfer the data acquired thanks to the large built-in storage capacity of 1 TB.

Facilitating complex and advanced applications

Facilitating the inspection of complex and thick parts or welds, the 64-element PA and 128-element TFM complete openings ensure optimal operation of the advanced Dual Linear Array (DLA) and Dual Matrix Array (DMA) probes. All omniScan X3 series models include support for DLA and DMA probes, saving time during setup.

Small defects are easier to distinguish thanks to the high-resolution PA and TFM imaging offered by the OmniScan X3 64. Accepting lower frequency probes, the OmniScan X3 64 can increase penetration into attenuating materials while reducing signal saturation. These enhanced detection capabilities make it easier to monitor defects at an early stage, including high-temperature hydrogen attack (HTHA).

Optimized work process for the inspection of large parts

For increased efficiency when the acquired data requires advanced analysis, the entire PA inspection process can be performed using Olympus' WeldSight software. With the WeldSight Remote Connect app installed on the OmniScan X3 64, inspectors can view acquired data instantly on a PC and take advantage of the customizable user interface and software tools that facilitate specialized inspection procedures, including newly performed welds on pressure vessels.
