Krautkrämer USIP|xs CV

ESSENTIAL & PERFORMANCE LINE

Multi-channel conventional ultrasonic instrument platform• Industry-leading automation capabilities• Scalable platform for utmost synergies• Intuitive user interface for maximum ease of use

Krautkrämer USIP|xs CV is the all industrial
purpose, multi-channel conventional
ultrasonic instrument for integration into
any automated and semi-automatedinspection system.
With different T/R specifications and a multitude of channel configurations,the instrument is scalable in performance as well as associated cost.
As a result, it is well suited for a wide range of applications and system sizes,
such as Quality Assurance, Process Control and R&D.

Fast and easy to use

Effective integration

The plug-and-play instrument lives up tothe latest usability standards and comesequipped with a vast array of integrated
diagnostic features. The result: A quick
start-up and operation without excessive
staff training and learning efforts.

Industry-leading automation andintegration capabilities enable even themost complex systems to be built withless effort. Multiple interface standards
make USIP|xs CV one of the best equipped
instruments for effective integration into
automated systems. The integrated field
bus connection allows for a single cableconnection to any PLC and minimizes
wiring when designing larger systems.

The integrated box design makes theinstrument extremely easy to maintain incomparison to slot card type electronics
due to fewer parts and interfaces.

A perfect fit for every application
As one of the largest platforms of
conventional ultrasonic instruments,
Krautkrämer USIP|xs CV offers UT performanceand channel count that can be fully tailored
to individual customer requirements –instead of a “one-size fits all” approach.
The platform concept creates synergies
concerning technical infrastructure,instrument cost and integration know-how.
This reduces the complexity in setting up
and maintaining inspection systems since
the scalable platform will offer the perfect
instrument for any kind of system type andinspection need.

While the ESSENTIAL line is ideal for midrange
applications with a high channel count –from 2 up to 12 channels for single
instruments, the PERFORMANCE line wasdesigned for more demanding use cases
in UT. The high-end solution is equippedwith 2, 4 or 8 channels that can be operated
in parallel, allowing for more complex
applications and a higher inspection
speed if needed. Both instrument lines areavailable as single and multi-instrument
systems.

Intuitive user interfaces for successfulprojects without excessive staff training
Graphical user interface (GUI)• Graphical user interface compliant withthe latest usability standards• Up to 8 parallel A-Scans enableoptimized inspection control• All digital filters and up to 4 amplifiers
per channel enable optimum setups
under almost any inspection condition• TCG function can be applied without
limitations over the whole dynamicrange

Interface monitoring• Developed based on decadesof experience as the leading
manufacturer of ultrasonic testing
systems• Comprises a vast array of diagnostic
tools and remote diagnostics
capabilities to save time and efforts
during start up, installation andcommissioning
