Product catalog summary
Overview: The James Ultrasonic Transducers offer a comprehensive range of low-frequency transducers designed for ultrasonic testing of concrete and other coarse-grained materials. These transducers are known for their robust construction and long-term reliability, with many units in use for over 35 years.
Features and Benefits:
  • Constructed with robust PZT elements housed in stainless steel for maximum acoustic efficiency.
  • Supported by experienced technical assistance.
General Purpose Compression Wave Transducers:
  • Model V-C-4891: 24KHz, Diameter 2.02 in (51 mm), Length 4.62 in (117 mm), Weight 2.62 lbs (1188 gr).
  • Model V-C-4898: 54KHz, Diameter 2.02 in (51 mm), Length 2.37 in (60 mm), Weight 0.92 lbs (417 gr).
  • Model V-C-4894: 150KHz, Diameter 1.03 in (26 mm), Length 2.07 in (52 mm), Weight 0.19 lbs (85 gr).

Specialized Transducers:
  • Shear Wave Transducers: Model V-C-7283, 180 KHz, used with compressional wave transducers to calculate Poisson’s ratio.
  • Exponential Transducers: Models V-C-4911 (Transmitter) and V-C-4905 (Receiver), both 50 KHz, designed to eliminate the need for couplants on uneven surfaces.
  • Underwater Transducers: Models V-C-4876 (Transmitter) and V-C-4877 (Receiver), both 54 KHz, supplied with 50-ft underwater cable.
Accessories:
  • V-C-4140 Preamplifier: Provides direct amplification for very coarse materials.
  • V-C-4874-GSO Clean in place gel couplant: Suitable for architectural concrete.
  • Rubber couplants: Available in different sizes, reusable for multiple applications.
Technical Specifications: Detailed specifications for each model are provided, including resonant frequency, dimensions, and weight.
