GE Phasor XS 16:64 Phased Array Ultrasonic Flaw Detector
The GE Phasor XS brings the proven advantages of Phased Array technology to a new – and accessible – level. This portable and rugged device combines the value of Phased Array with a codecompliant conventional UT flaw detector. It is simple to use, easy to learn and specially designed with practical, relevant features.
When used in Phased Array mode, the operator can electronically control multiple beams from one probe. The precise beam control including angle, focus and size, results in improved probability of detection (POD) and sizing. With one scan from one contact location, greater area is covered and comprehensive data can be viewed in real time on a full color sector display. When compared to conventional Ultrasonic inspection, the productivity and cost savings from the Phasor XS are easily measured.
Productivity gains
When the inspection requires a different angle with conventional ultrasonic testing, the operator must change his probe and re-visualize the integration of the new information. A different time base and sensitivity level is represented. Although this is not a problem for the skilled operator, it takes time. Through the power of Phasor XS, these inefficiencies are drastically minimized.
Real time color imaging from the Phasor XS supplies an integrated cross-sectional visualization of the part originating from multiple angles. A single A-Scan can also be selected for display in combination with the image. With a single probe, you can achieve more than ever before – and in less time!
Overall, the Phasor XS provides:
- Improved area coverage, faster results
- More information from one scan of the part
- Better recorded result from the generation of an image
- One probe replicates the capabilities of many conventional UT probes and wedges
- Time and cost savings from reduced hours evaluating indications with multiple angles
Measurable time savings!
Some weld inspections require a complete scan with three separate angles. Using the Phasor XS can result in a time savings of two thirds!
Test quality improvements
Defect orientation is a prediction made in the development of a test procedure and an inspection angle is chosen based on this prediction. Beam spread is chosen purposely broad to account for some level of error in the prediction, so essentially it is a compromise.
With the Phasor XS, electronic control of the beam allows test procedures to be developed that will yield higher Probability of Detection (POD), in the same inspection time, by allowing the choice of an ideal beam over the full inspection area. The quality of the scan is improved and the Phasor XS’ full-color, real time sector display with selectable A-Scan supplies the standard accepted method for instant and reliable sizing.
Simple change over
Building Phased Array capabilities into a successful proven operating platform ensures the transition to Phased Array inspection will be cost effective. Phasor XS’ simple menu driven operation of basic Phased Array controls puts the technology within reach of the Level II field inspector. Data is easily interpreted and the cost of training is minimal.
Standard Features
An on board data set memory is combined with removable storage via an SD card for documentation and setup storage. This ensures your operators will be working with consistent setups to get brilliant results that you can see later on the screen or computer
The unique Sector Freeze mode allows review and storage of all the A-Scans behind the image. Select your beam of interest from all of the shots for separate display and improve your sizing with focal and angle control.

Krautkramer USN 58R
The ultrasonic instrument for the workshop, even for automated inspections.
High-contrast, crystal clear
Optimum readability from any viewing angle, all this is provided by the EL display of the USN 58R. This display technology does not only make this ultrasonic instrument the best choice for shop use but also for outdoor applications at very low temperatures: the USN 58R loves the cold and operates even at -20 °C / -4 °F without any problem.
It goes without saying that the display can be further optimized depending on the application site: you can set the brightness low or high, or you can choose the inverted display mode for fatigueproof work. Thanks to the electronic parallax-free grid, you will see every detail even at an unfavorable viewing angle and from a greater distance.
Automatic, multi-channel
Requirements that the USN 58R is also able to meet: the instrument is qualified for automated applications by its two monitor gates provided with configurable real-time outputs - in combination with the "SmartView" feature which ensures maximum flaw detectability, especially at high scanning speeds.
Multi-channel test systems can be quite easily set up by synchronizing several instruments and, provided with the Interface Echo option, these systems are also suitable for an immersion test. This makes the USN 58R an economic solution in this extended field of application for portable ultrasonic instruments.
Universal, flexible
The attributes characterizing the USN 58R thanks to its other options: the Backwall Echo Attenuation feature, specifically including the backwall echo in the flaw evaluation by reducing the gain, makes the USN 58R a good choice, especially for the inspection of castings and forgings.
Another focal area of application is the weld inspection - of course with amplitude evaluation and precise flaw location on flat and curved components - or with the additional options DAC/TCG or DGS for ultrasonic testing according to the majority of national or international standard specifications.
