INTRODUCTION
The NDT Experts model ExScan1000 is a
precision Ultrasonic Micrometer. Based on the
same operating principles as SONAR, the
ExScan1000 is capable of measuring the thickness
of various materials with accuracy as high as
± 0.001 inches, or ± 0.01 millimeters. The principle
advantage of ultrasonic measurement over
traditional methods is that ultrasonic
measurements can be performed with access to
only one side of the material being measured.
This manual is presented in three sections.
The first section covers operation of the
ExScan1000, and explains the keypad controls
and display. The second section provides
guidelines in selecting a transducer for a specific
application. The last section provides application
