Prisma Portable Ultrasonic Flaw Detector

Prisma Portable Ultrasonic Flaw Detector is an advanced non-destructive testing instrument designed for material inspection in extreme environments, representing a significant advancement in ultrasonic flaw detection technology. This innovative device integrates multiple inspection technologies, including conventional ultrasound, phased array, and Time-of-Flight Diffraction (TOFD), within a single compact unit, making it exceptionally versatile for various industrial applications ranging from oil pipeline inspection to aerospace component testing. Distinguished by its virtually indestructible construction, the device features a sophisticated shock-mounted internal chassis enclosed within an impact-absorbing exterior that achieves IP66 waterproof rating while maintaining remarkable portability. The detector's groundbreaking features include advanced real-time imaging capabilities, 3D scanning functionality, and integrated data recording with automatic PDF report generation, significantly reducing inspection times and improving accuracy. Its ergonomic design incorporates a click-wheel interface for single-handed operation, a high-visibility transflective color display, and tool-free access points designed for gloved operation. The device's innovative architecture, recognized with a Platinum A' Design Award in the Scientific Instruments and Research Equipment Design category, showcases exceptional attention to user-centered design principles through its multi-position stand, tripod mount, and harness attachments. Measuring 300mm in width, 90mm in depth, and 205mm in height, it stands as the lightest product in its class, featuring wireless and Ethernet connectivity for seamless upgrades and diagnostic capabilities, while adhering to ISO standards for recycling compliance.
