Jireh ROTIX – 2 Probe Phased Array Scanner
Have questions about buying this product?
The ROTIX is a manual chain scanner designed to provide encoded probe position of probes circumferentially around tubes and pipes. The ROTIX – 2 Probe Phased Array Scanner is completely configurable for both phased array and traditional UT (Ultrasonic Testing) with single or multiple probes.
Adjustable Chain
Our exclusive chain design grants the ability to scan pipe/tube diameters of 3.8 cm to 96.5 cm while using quick release, easy to use chain system.
Frame Bars
45 cm (17.7 in) and 20 cm (7.8 in) frame bars provide setup options for dual and single probe scanning.
Brake system
A brake is provided to lock the scanner in a required position.
Umbilical
The umbilical is modular and can be removed from the scanner. It can be used for one-axis and two-axis scans when used with optional accessories.
Removable handle
The ROTIX includes a removable cover which allows easy access to protected connections while also providing a means of cable management.
Built-in Encoder
An encoder is integrated into the body of the ROTIX cart. The encoder output is fully compatible with all standard instruments
Wheels
All wheels are coated with urethane to reduce the effects of foreign debris obstructing the rolling of the scanner. Urethane also eliminates the sideways sliding of the scanner when used in vertical applications.
Probe Holders
An integrated latch allows easy probe center spacing adjustment and scanner installation. Due to its modular design, most major types of phased array wedges can be accommodated.
Warranty
Three-year limited warranty on all products.
Component Identification
1 Cart
The ROTIX cart is paired with urethane wheels for smooth, unobstructed motion upon scan surfaces.
2 Frame Bar
45 cm (17.7 in) and 20 cm (7.9 in) frame bar lengths are included with this kit to facilitate various scanner configurations.
3 Slip Joint Probe Holders
Maintain constant contact between the inspection surface and the probe with low profile, spring-loaded probe holders.
4 Stabilizer Wheel
Maintain level and balance of the scanner with a magnetized stabilizer wheel.
5 Short Link
Various amounts of single wheel short links are included in each kit configuration.
6 Short Link with Dovetail
Utilize the short link with dovetail to mount accessories such as cable management to the chain system.
7 Catch Link
Works in conjunction with the buckle to mount the scanner to the pipe/tube.
8 Long Link
Equivalent to (approx.) 3 short links, the long link is used for larger diameter scans.
9 Buckle
The buckle connects to the catch link to complete the chain system. Adjust the buckle to control the chain’s tension around the pipe/tube exterior.
