Echo 8 HT™ Fluid for AUT and Robotics
Overview
$650.00 – $4,994.00
Echo 8 HT™ is a line of high temperature, slow drying ultrasonic fluids with an excellent safety profile and is compatible with all metals and most plastics.
Echo 8 HT™ High temperature ultrasonic coupling fluids are available in three viscosities; Grades 1, 4 and 10. Performance of a broad range of AUT and MUT ultrasonic flaw and thickness gaging applications from -50°F to 800°F (-45°C to 425°C) is possible with these three grades. Grade 1 is the lowest viscosity fluid (100 cST) for long or small diameter lines and quick spreading. Grade 4 is Echo’s standard viscosity fluid (400 cST) and is usually a good compromise between pump ability and run-off at the transducer. Grade 10 is a very thick fluid (5,000 cST – honey like) for MUT. It spreads easily over large hot surfaces, stays in place and leaves minimal, if any residue. All grades of Echo 8 HT provide excellent corrosion inhibition on ferrous metals, leave minimal residue and are compatible with all metals and most plastics.

Chad H. Senior NDE, API Inspector –
We have been using it for shear wave inspections on high temperature components and have been quite happy with how it has been working. The big things I needed from it originally was to be spreadable, be able to stay on the surface and not leave a residue, all of which this couplant has provided.
