Surface Thickness Gauges
Cygnus 2+ Hands Free
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
The Cygnus 2+ is specifically designed for hands-free use by displaying measurements via an end-mounted screen. With three measuring modes, it measures the wall thickness of a variety of materials (including plastics) and metals of any level of corrosion and pitting.
Three Selectable Measuring Modes
Multiple-Echo mode uses three error checked back wall echoes to provide the most reliable and accurate remaining thickness measurements, with no need to remove coatings (up to 20mm/0.8 in thick).
Single-Echo mode is ideal for measuring uncoated metals with heavy front and/or back-wall corrosion. Also effective on many cast metals, plastics and composites.
Echo-Echo mode works best for measuring heavily corroded metals through thin coatings of up to 1mm/0.04in thick, ideal for measuring painted metals with heavy back wall corrosion.
FEATURES
- Multiple-Echo mode for accurate, through-coat measurements as specified by Classification Societies
- Echo-Echo and Single-Echo modes for heavily corroded metals with a thin or no coating
- Hands free operation: wrist, waist belt and harness mountable
- End-Mounted display shows thickness measurements – ideal for rope access or climbing work
- Front display enables easy gauge setup
- Deep Coat function ignores coatings up to 20mm thick
- MSI (Measurement Stability Indicator) verifies stable, reliable readings
- Intuitive easy to use menu
- Extremely rugged enclosure – shock and impact proof to US MIL STD 810G
- Environmental sealing (water and dust proof) to IP67 – US MIL STD 810G.
- Uses single and twin crystal probes
- Can be upgraded to 4+ or 6+ at an additional cost
