 19.10.2012 The 45MG is an advanced ultrasonic thickness gage packed with standard measurement features and software options. This unique instrument is compatible with the complete range of Olympus dual element and single element thickness gage transducers, making this innovative instrument an all-in-one solution for virtually every thickness gage application.
Standard Features
In its basic configuration the 45MG is a simple and straightforward gage that requires minimal operator training to tackle most common thickness gaging applications. With additional optional software options and transducers however, the 45MG can become significantly more advanced and take on applications well beyond that of a typical entry-level gage. Furthermore, most options are available individually at the time of purchase or can be added in the future as your needs change.
- Compatible with full line of Olympus dual element transducers for thickness measurements on internally corroded metals
- Min./Max. mode
- Two Alarm modes
- Differential mode
- Time-based B-scan
- Reduction Rate
- Gain Adjust (standard, high, and low)
- Password instrument lock
| Measurements |
| Dual element transducer measurement mode |
Time interval from a precision delay after the excitation pulse to the first echo |
| Echo-to-Echo (optional) |
Time interval between two successive back-wall echoes to eliminate paint or coating thickness |
| THRU-COAT® measurement (optional) |
Measurement of true metal and coating thicknesses with a single back-wall echo (with D7906-SM, D7906-RM, and D7908 transducers) |
| Single element transducer measurement modes (optional) |
Mode 1: Time interval between the excitation pulse and the first back-wall echo
Mode 2: Time interval between the delay line echo and the first back-wall echo (with delay or immersion transducers)
Mode 3: Time interval between successive back-wall echoes following the first interface echo after the excitation pulse (with delay line or immersion transducers) |
