Weldcheck brochure

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document details the WeldCheck series of eddy current flaw detectors, specifically designed for weld inspection and compliant with EN 1711 and ISO 17643 standards. Key features include advanced loop guides, automatic lift-off gain correction, and a user-friendly interface.

Specifications: The series comprises the WeldCheck2 (single channel) and WeldCheck+ (dual channel) models. Both are lightweight (1.2 kg), compact, and durable, housed in a robust aluminum alloy case. They offer a frequency range of 10Hz to 20MHz for WeldCheck2 and 10Hz to 12.8MHz for WeldCheck+, suitable for diverse applications.

Design and Usability: The instruments feature a large, daylight-readable display and ergonomic design. They include standard probe connectors and a flip function for left or right-handed use. The intuitive menu system has customizable soft keys for quick function access.

Battery and Power: The WeldCheck series provides over 7 hours of battery life, with rapid charging in 2.5 hours. An external AA battery pack can extend usage by an additional 4 hours.

Advanced Features: The WeldCheck+ model offers dual frequency/channel capabilities, automatic lift-off gain compensation, and conductivity measurement. Both models support data recording and replay, with real-time adjustments possible.

Environmental Suitability: Designed for harsh conditions, the series includes features like a rear foot stand and harness attachment points for versatile use in various environments.

Display and Data Management: The instruments have a 5.7” color screen with multiple display modes and customizable color schemes. Data storage is supported via micro SD cards, and real-time data output is available through USB connectivity.

Accessories and Kits: Standard kits include the instrument, power adapter, shoulder strap, carry case, USB cable, and quick reference card. Optional accessories include a hard transit case, protective cover, and various leads.

Specifications and Advanced Features:

Frequency: WeldCheck2 operates at one frequency, 60kHz standard, with options for 120, 240, and 480kHz.
Accuracy: Varies by IACS range, with better accuracy at lower ranges (e.g., 0.5%-10% IACS better than +/-0.05% IACS).
Lift Off: Corrected to 1.0mm, no temperature compensation, with all errors at 90% confidence level.
Resolution: Maximum of 3 decimal points, with Auto Resolution Mode available.
Conductivity Specification: Available only for WeldCheck+.

Warranty: Both models come with a standard two-year manufacturer's warranty, excluding customer damage or misuse. This can be extended to five years with the ETherCover Extended Warranty Protection.

Equipment Kits:

Surface Inspection Kit (KASUR001): Includes 4 probes, lead, and Al and Fe test block.
Sub Surface Inspection Kit (KASUBS001): Low frequency, includes 2 probes, lead, and test piece.
Conductivity Kit (KACON001): For AeroCheck+ & WeldCheck+ only, includes probe, calibration, and cable.
Weld Probe Kit (KAWEL001): Includes various probes and accessories such as PWM100S00 Probe, PUB100k Probe, test block, shims, leads, PTFE tape, and a deluxe probe case.

The WeldCheck2 is a single channel instrument that offers a simplified specification but none the less boasts a 10Hz-20MHz frequency range. The WeldCheck+ instrument is a dual-frequency eddy current inspection instrument with conductivity. The dual channel/frequency capability means that the instrument can perform, in addition to single frequency, applications that require dual frequency. Both the WeldCheck+ and WeldCheck2 can perform a great many eddy current inspection tasks due to their superior performance including weld inspection, surface defect detection and low frequency inspection of...

Features Available On The WeldCheck2 & WeldCheck+ Guides Feature: “Guides” allows the user to display a slide show that can be created easily with commonly used desktop software. The benefit of this feature is that instructions, tutorials and procedures for an inspection can be added to the WeldCheck+ very quickly and the NDT inspector can easily switch between the inspection itself and the “Guides” while performing a live test. Trace Feature: The trace function allows a reference trace to be stored on the screen and appears along with the graticule behind the live spot, allowing the operator...
