Solutions to common UT cable failures
Why are Echo Cables Different? We looked at why other cables failed and addressed those failures. Our goal is to extend useful cable life, to reduce the need to recalibrate due to field cable failure, to improve ease of transducer access and reduce overall cable costs. Call an Echo cable expert … [Read more...] about Solutions to common UT cable failures
Fluid couplants for AUT Inspections in the Winter
With winter approaching, many of you will be performing AUT inspections on high temperature parts in a cold environment. Echo has three types of AUT fluid couplants for your AUT needs. Most liquids increase in viscosity as the temperature decreases. It is important to select a fluid … [Read more...] about Fluid couplants for AUT Inspections in the Winter

Scott Cargill Shares His Experience With Auto-ignition During a UT Inspection
Scott Cargill, Past President of ASNT shared the below auto-ignition story with us. It is well worth the read. Auto-Ignition? What’s that? Wait a minute, I’m almost positive it has something to do with the MSDS – Materials Safety Data Sheet (old school) or with the harmonized global system of … [Read more...] about Scott Cargill Shares His Experience With Auto-ignition During a UT Inspection
Important Considerations for Couplant Selection
Couplant selection is a critical factor to insure reliable, repeatable UT inspection results and to optimize productivity. Couplant is required due to the acoustic impedance mismatch between air in the interface with the transducer and the test object. If there were no couplant, nearly all of the … [Read more...] about Important Considerations for Couplant Selection
