UFD40 Universal Fault Detection System with Eddy-Current Technology

Product catalog summary
Overview: The UFD40 is a universal fault detection system designed for non-contact detection of faults, butt welds, and mechanical connections in wires, cables, and tubes. It is particularly suited for process control environments and utilizes eddy current testing principles.
Specifications: The system features a modular design with independent measurement channels that communicate in real-time with machine PLCs. It supports industrial interfaces for automation and can be operated and visualized via a Host-PC. The system operates with a sample rate of 15 kHz and can handle material speeds up to 10 m/sec, achieving a path resolution of 0.6 mm.
Functionality: The UFD40 uses encircling coils for measurement, detecting irregularities through changes in eddy currents. It supports both standalone and remote operation modes, with settings stored and selectable via a control interface. The system is compatible with Profibus DP and Profinet IO, with other Fieldbus systems in preparation.
Sensorics: The system offers encircling coils for material diameters ranging from 1 mm to 90 mm, with both fixed and exchangeable coil options. Sensor cables are available in standard lengths with specific connectors for different sensor types.
Technical Data: The UFD40 operates on a 24 VDC power supply, with power consumption varying between 18 W and 30 W depending on the unit. It features adjustable frequencies, low and high pass filters, and gain settings. The system is housed in an IP65 enclosure and operates within a temperature range of +5 to +45°C.
Order Information: The UFD40 is available in different configurations, including single and dual-channel versions with various connection options. Additional accessories and sensor interface boxes are also available.
Host Software: The supplied software for Windows allows for operation, visualization, administration, and storage of measurement programs. It communicates with the measurement channels via Ethernet.

UFD40 FAULT DETECTION Description The UFD40 serves the detection of faults, butt welds and mechanical connections in wires, cables and tubes. It has been specifically developed for use in the process control area. The UFD40 shows features known from classical Eddy current testing equipment used in automated fault inspection, such as selectable working frequency, high pass / low pass filters, Y components and vector evaluation. This enables the system to detect different fault spots and seams with the same hardware. When the material transits the sensor, irregularities (faulty spot, connection...

UFD40  Universal Fault Detection System with Eddy-Current Technology-3

The visualization and operation of a measurement channel is by a supplied software for the Windows operation system. The software communicates with the appropriate channel by Ethernet. The visualization can be separately called up for each channel, the number of channels which can be displayed is limited only by the capability of the Host PC. Sensorics Currently encircling coils are available for material diameters 1 - 90 mm. The well known coils with fixed diameters are complemented by the modular inspection coil systems EC15 - EC90. With those systems a sensor can be easily and quickly converted...
