Reduce scanner wandering and width using the ROTIX – Two Probe Weld Frame Scanner. Using various link lengths and an adjustable buckle, a pipe of any size may be inspected from 10.2 cm – 96.5 cm (4 in – 38 in) diameter.
Adjustable Chain
Using two link lengths and an adjustable buckle, pipes and tubes ranging from 10.2 cm – 96.5 cm (4 in – 38 in) diameter may be scanned with ease. The quick release links are designed for simple and efficient chain setup.
Double Wheel Chain
The double wheel chain straddles the weld to allow the scanner to be centered on the weld. This alleviates scanner wandering and reduces the width of the scanner.
Brake System
When required, prevent scanner movement.
Overhead Adjustable Link
Raise the overhead adjustable link to provide space for large probes to operate. Lower the overhead adjustable link when low-profile scanning is required.
Wheels
Urethane wheels reduce the effects of debris affecting scanner travel in addition to eliminating slippage during vertical applications.
Spring-Loaded Encoder
The spring-loaded encoder maintains encoder contact with the scan surface at all times ensuring accuracy. The encoder’s output is fully compatible with most standard instruments.
Slip Joint Probe Holders
Easily adjust probe centre spacing and probe alignment with these probe holders designed to accommodate most major phased array wedge types.
Handles
Convenient handles offer control of the scanner as well as mounting points for accessories such as cable management.
Modular Design
One tool for many scan applications. Convert the ROTIX to a magnetic STIX scanner with a conversion kit.
Warranty
3-year warranty on all products.
Component Identification
1 Overhead Adjustable Link
The overhead adjustable link adjusts to accommodate oversized probes. When low profile scanning is required, the link may be contracted.
2 Frame Bar
The kit includes a 40 cm (15.7 in) frame bar, however, various lengths of frame bars are available for various scan applications.
3 Slip Joint Probe Holders
Two, phased array probe holders carry all standard probes and wedges.
4 Spring-Loaded Encoder
The spring-loaded encoder may be mounted where convenient along the frame bar. The spring tension ensures the encoder maintains contact with the scan surface at all times.
5 Handles
Handles allow a grip point for the scanner as well as a mounting point for various accessories.
6 Short Link
Multiple short links complete the chain configuration around pipes and tubes.
7 Short Link with Dovetail
Utilize the dovetail mount to add accessories to the scanner such as cable management.
9 Catch Link
The catch link completes the chain connection around the scan surface. Use the dovetail mount to carry accessories when required.
10 Long Link
Equivalent to (approx.) 3 short links, the long link is useful during large diameter scan setups.
11 Buckle
The buckle connects to the catch link to form the chain system which mounts the scanner to the inspection surface.
