Olympus combines the latest advances in high-performance digital signal processing and flaw detectors into a compact and rugged handheld device – the new NORTEC® 600. With a sharp and vivid 5.7 inch VGA display and true full screen display mode, the NORTEC 600 is capable of producing very clear eddy current signals and any lighting conditions.
The interface of the NORTEC 600 is completely redesigned but retains the knob control functionality of the previous NORTEC series and combines it with a simple menu structure and direct access keys. Available in four flexible configurations, the NORTEC 600 offers a wide range of innovative functions, including pre-set quick access menus for applications, all-in-one display, time readings, and time readings. Realize and calibrate the signal in Freeze freeze mode, ensuring quick and easy testing for any level of use.
Main applications of NORTEC 600 . eddy current tester
The special eddy current test method is used a lot and is very effective in the field of aviation, from inspecting the hull, rivet holes, bolt holes, drums, forks, connections between composite layers. metal… and now the Nortec line is included in the standards of major aircraft manufacturers such as Boeing, Airbus for the very latest commercial and military aircraft such as Boeing 787-9, 777-x, New Boeing 737 MAX; Airbus 350-800, 380; Bombardier L-85, New Boeing 737 (USN) P8, Boeing 767, New Bombardier C300…
Surface inspection
The NORTEC 600's high performance, advanced electronics, vibrant display provide excellent signal quality for surface inspection using high frequency probes.
The NORTEC 600 also balances standard features for surface tests using mid-high frequency transducers, including impedance, 10×10 grid, scan (strip plot) surface displays, Multi-way alarms, automatic lift-off etc
Newly introduced features such as null point crosshairs, fine (expanded) and mesh, and automatic internal balancing circuitry make the NORTEC 600 an extremely powerful and professional surface inspection tool.
Measure coating thickness and conductivity
The NORTEC 600 conductivity measurement mode presents a calibration chart that describes but features the main control samples in terms of coating thickness and user-defined conductivity. The NORTEC 600 is capable of measuring conductivity and non-conductive coating thickness on non-ferromagnetic materials up to 0.64 mm.
Optimized for weld inspection
Thanks to its lightweight, durable design, the NORTEC® 600 is ideally suited for performing weld inspections in extremely harsh environments. The NORTEC 600 comes preloaded with weld inspection parameters that simplify instrument preparation and calibration. Coating thicknesses can be assessed in single or dual probe mode (NORTEC 600D only). ).
Material Corrosion Test
The new All-in-One display feature allows displaying up to 3 arbitrary measurement results for frequency 1, frequency 2 and the above mix channels. Each channel can be displayed as an impedance face or a strip chart, with independent display position knobs.
Check bolt hole using rotary probe
Nortec 600 supports crack defect testing in the bolt hole area using either a manual rotary probe or a transducer rotary motor.
With the NORTEC 600, complex borehole inspections are easy and reliable. With the help of a probe rotary motor, an improved waterfall display, and a new layer pointer, the NORTEC 600 makes positioning within layers very easy.
Check the wheel drum
The professionalism of the NORTEC 600's high-end electronic circuitry is most evident when testing the drum. The transducers used in these applications typically produce low signals, often requiring preamplification. However, the wide gain (gain) range (0-100 dB) and advanced electronics of the NORTEC 600 still deliver excellent quality signals during testing without the need for additional preamps. amplification.
Check the heat exchanger tube system
The new auto-mixing feature of the NORTEC® 600 instantly mixes signals so that residual signals (rejected) noise are minimized. This feature is especially useful for inspecting heat exchanger tubes in thermal power plants or petrochemical refineries.
Rugged and reliable
Based on the EPOCH series, the NORTEC 600 is designed to withstand harsh operating conditions. The resistance of the NORTEC 600 makes it reliable for any eddy test job.
Lightweight and maneuverable
The Olympus NORTEC 600 device weighs just 1.6 kg and is delivered with a handle that enables the device to be controlled with just the thumb, all tasks can be done with just one hand.
