DMTA020-01EN, Rev. D, September 2016 1. Setting Up and Operating the HST-X04 Scanner The HST-X04 scanner is a versatile pipe and plate scanner, which can be used to inspect welds using TOFD or pulse-echo techniques. Description The HST-X04 scanner is composed of two probe holders mounted on a bar. A mini- encoder is installed on one of the probe holders (see Figure 1-1 on page 11).
DMTA020-01EN, Rev. D, September 2016 Assembling the Scanner This section presents the assembly procedures for the HST-X04 scanner, which include installing a probe and wedge in a probe holder, installing and adjusting a probe holder, and installing the Mini-Wheel encoder.
1.2.3 Installing an Encoder The Mini-Wheel encoder (see Figure 1-4 on page 14) can be installed two different ways according to the scanning direction needed. Setting Up and Operating the HST-X04 Scanner...
DMTA020-01EN, Rev. D, September 2016 Figure 1-4 The Mini-Wheel encoder and cable When the probes are perpendicular to the weld and the scanning direction is parallel to the weld, the Mini-Wheel encoder is installed on the outside of the encoder holder (see Figure 1-5 on page 14).
Use the hexagonal key to loosen the screw securing the Mini-Wheel encoder pin into the encoder holder (see Figure 1-7 on page 15). Loosen encoder- holder screw on the probe holder. Figure 1-7 The two encoder holder screws Setting Up and Operating the HST-X04 Scanner...
The HST-X04 scanner is designed for manual use, and is straightforward to operate. After you have setup the HST-X04 scanner for the size of pipe or plate you wish to inspect (see “Assembling the Scanner” on page 12), use the following procedure to operate the scanner.
DMTA020-01EN, Rev. D, September 2016 2. Probes and Wedges This chapter presents a list of probes and wedges that can be used with the HST-X04 scanner and describes the parts that are included in the scanner kit. Probes Table 3 on page 17 describes the probes used for inspections made with the HST-X04 scanner.
The XX part of the transducer part number indicates that two types of connectors are available: SM (Microdot connectors) or SL (LEMO 00 connectors) Wedges Table 4 on page 18 describes the wedges used for inspections made with the HST-X04 scanner. Table 4 Miniature TOFD screw-in wedges...
