Introduction The UTScan-100 is an all-in-one, full-featured PC based industrial ultrasonic instrument for in factory usage. Employing 32-bit PCI architecture, instrument operation is made fast and easy via windows based inspection screens and intuitive dialogue boxes for ultrasonic setup. Configurable with either single or multi-channel front-end square wave pulser/receivers, the UTScan-100 is expandable up to 32 independent ultrasonic channels and programmable I/O ports. The UTScan-100 delivers: 95dB true instrument gain, 50dB DAC, 35MHz analog bandwidth and ample storage for virtually an unlimited number of setup files for different transducers and inspection plans.
