Elios 3 Payload for Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement UTM

Remotely measure thickness, capture A-scans and in hard-to-reach spaces.

Features:

Location-tagged UT Measurements.
Live 3D data localization. With both UT & LiDAR payloads mounted, the Elios 3 enables real-time measurement location tagging which brings data actionability to a whole new level.

Smart Couplant Dispenser
Optimal ultrasound coupling. A remotely operated couplant dispenser with integrated gel level monitoring, ensures optimal ultrasound transmission to the material under test. The operator can monitor the couplant level through Cockpit and return home for a quick refill or rapid swap of the dispenser’s syringe when running out of gel.

Smart Probe Arm
The Elios 3 UT Payload can be mounted on top of, in front of, or below the drone, and the probe arm can be shaped to your needs, ensuring the necessary adaptability and accessibility to perform thickness measurements in a wide range of locations. The probe arm is designed to fold onto the drone to pass through the narrowest manholes or navigate inside the most complex spaces without disrupting the flight. The UT Payload probe features a laser pointer for accurate targeting and aiming during flight, so you can arrive quickly at the precise spot you wish to measure.

Modular Probe Head
The Elios 3 UT Payload features a set of probe hoods to match the shape of various surfaces as well as interchangeable twin crystal piezo-composite probes with the choice of 2MHz, 5MHz, or 7.5 MHz. The probes are particularly suited to measuring heavily corroded metals and feature an Echo-Echo mode to measure through up to 1 mm (0.040 inch) of surface coating.

Cleaning Module
The probe head can be replaced with a cleaning module to remove light deposits and prepare surfaces for measurement. Thanks to location-tagging, the user can easily return to the cleaned location to perform the measurement with the probe head attached.

Live A-scans
Cockpit’s Live A-Scan widget provides operators with advanced measurement controls, enabling either fully automated or manually obtained measurements using adjustable gain and gates. This flexibility allows users to refine measurements on the spot even in less-than-ideal conditions.
