Info

Effects of Probe Frequencies: 1. Higher frequencies give better resolution 2. Higher frequencies give better sensitivity 3. Lower frequencies give better penetration 4. Lower frequencies less attenuation 5. Lower frequencies probe wider beam spread with more coverage to detect reflectors and reflectors with unfavorable orientation. 6. Higher frequencies the beams are more focused and the sensitivity and resolution are better.
Effects of Probe Sizes: 1. The larger the probe produce more energy thus more penetration 2. Small probe small near zone 3. The larger the probe the poorer the contacts on a curve substrate. Single or Double Crustal Probe Selection: 1. Single crystal probe should be used for material thickness 15mm and above, according to the probe the near zone 2. Single crystal probe should be used for thickness above 30mm 3. Double crystal should be used for thin material
