Ultrasonic wall thickness gauges for steel, high temperatures and cast iron

TIME®2130/2132/2134

The TIME^®2130, TIME^®2132 and TIME^®2134 from Beijing Time High Technology Ltd. are digital ultrasonic wall thickness gauges for non-destructive wall thickness measurement on metal components. All three models feature an RS232 interface for connecting the TA230 printer and a PC (software optional).

The TIME^®2130 works with the standard probe 5PΦ10/90°, the TIME^®2132 is designed with probe ZW5P for measurements on hot surfaces up to 300 °C, and the TIME^®2134 comes with probe TSTU32 for cast iron.

Properties

RS232 interface for connecting the TA230 printer and a PC with optional software
TIME®2132: high-temperature resistant up to 300 °C
TIME®2134: equipped with probe TSTU32 for cast iron
Free conversion between metric and imperial units
Automatic zero-point calibration: automatically corrects system errors
Gain adjustment, low-battery indication and automatic switch-off
Memory for 500 readings and 5 sound velocities (store, delete, review)
Large LCD with backlight and adjustable contrast
Two display modes: current thickness or minimum thickness
Two-point calibration for high accuracy
Presettable upper/lower limits with audible alarm
Resolution 0.01 mm and 0.1 mm selectable

Applications

By using wall thickness gauges, materials that are exposed to corrosion or erosion can be monitored, ensuring the safe use of, for example, a pressure vessel.
