  • Page 17: Introduction

    Introduction This manual provides instructions for assembling, installing, and operating the HSMT-Compact scanner. The HSMT-Compact scanner is a versatile pipe and plate scanner that can be used to inspect pipes of 4 in. schedule or greater (with minimum outside diameters of 114 mm [or 4.5 in.]), as well as flat surfaces.

  • Page 19: Overview

    The contents of a standard case are shown in Figure 1-1 on page 13. Figure 1‑1 Case contents The main HSMT-Compact scanner components are the frame (with four wheels and two handles), the probe holders, the water-couplant distribution system, and the encoder (see Figure 1-2 on page 14).

  • Page 21 DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 WARNING To avoid injury, use caution when handling the magnetic wheels; the magnetic pull of the wheels is strong and could cause bodily harm—for example, a finger pinched between two wheels, or between a wheel and a steel surface. Probe holders The probe holders are used to secure the probes.

The frame section between the wheels can be changed to vary the scanner length (see Figure 1-5 on page 17).

  • Page 24: Figure 1-6 Alternative Scanner Configuration

    Preamplifier If necessary, a preamplifier (often required for TOFD inspections) can be mounted on the frame. In the example shown in Figure 1-6 on page 18, an Olympus TRPP 5810 pulser/preamplifier is used. A bracket is required to mount the TRPP 5810 on HSMT scanners.

F, August 2016 Figure 2‑9 Loosened strap (left) and tightened strap (right) Setting Up the Scanner This section describes the procedure for preparing the HSMT-Compact scanner for inspection. To set up the scanner Connect the probes and any other equipment (a preamplifier, for example) to the acquisition unit.

  • Page 32: Figure 2-11 Adjusting The Probe Position

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 Connect the water-manifold intake to the feed system (see Figure 2-10 on page 25). Connect the water-manifold outlet to the wedge-couplant intake. If only two out of the four water-manifold outlets are used, connect a tube between the two unused outlets (see Figure 2-10 on page 25).

  • Page 33: Operating The Scanner

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 3. Operating the Scanner The HSMT-Compact scanner is designed for manual use, and is straightforward to operate. To operate the scanner Hold the scanner above the inspection surface, and then align the scanner so that the inspection area is centered between the probes.

  • Page 35: Maintenance

    This chapter contains procedures for replacing wheels, probes, and wedges for both conventional ultrasonic and phased array ultrasonic technologies. The probes may need to be replaced if they malfunction, or if the inspection application has changed. Depending on operating conditions, the HSMT-Compact scanner parts might need periodic cleaning. Replacing Wheels This section contains the procedure for changing the wheels once they are too worn.

  • Page 36: Replacing A Conventional Ultrasonic Probe

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 Figure 4‑1 Removing the wheel screw Lift the scanner and pull the wheel down and outward. Insert the new wheel in the frame and secure it with the screw. Make sure the bearings are placed in the correct position. Repeat the procedure for the other wheels.

  • Page 37: Figure 4-2 The Screw That Secures The Yoke To The Sla

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 To replace a conventional ultrasonic probe Turn off the couplant flow. Disconnect the couplant tubes from the couplant source, or from the wedge. Disconnect the probe cable. Remove the scanner from the inspection surface. Using a flathead screwdriver, loosen the screw at the back of the spring-loaded arm (SLA), just enough to free the yoke from the arm (see Figure 4-2 on page 31).

  • Page 38: Figure 4-3 The Screw That Secures The Yoke Assembly

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 Figure 4‑3 The screw that secures the yoke assembly Ensure that the probe cable is disconnected, and then unscrew the probe from the wedge (see Figure 4-4 on page 32). In certain equipment configurations, it may be possible to unscrew the probe without removing the wedge from the yoke (and the yoke from the SLA).

  • Page 39: Replacing A Phased Array Probe

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 Install the new probe. NOTE Before installing the new probe into the probe holder, ensure that there is enough couplant between the probe and the wedge. 10. Tighten the probe inside the holder. CAUTION Do not overtighten the screws; doing so could crack the wedge. 11.

  • Page 40: Figure 4-5 The Screw That Secures The Yoke Assembly

    DMTA017-01EN, Rev. F, August 2016 Using a flathead screwdriver, remove the screw (at the back of the SLA) that secures the yoke to the spring-loaded arm. Remove the yoke, probe holder, and probe assembly from the scanner. Using a hexagonal key, remove the screw (on the side of the yoke) that holds the parts together (see Figure 4-5 on page 34).

  • Page 41: Unit Cleaning

    This concludes the procedure for replacing a phased array probe. Unit Cleaning The HSMT-Compact scanner’s external surfaces can be cleaned when needed. The magnetic wheels can be strongly attracted to any ferromagnetic materials or surfaces, which potentially can cause injuries (for example, pinched fingers) or equipment damage.
