Overview

The most powerful ECA instrument on the market

Building on the technical success of the S2G2-800, SG NDT have introduced several key improvements to create the S2G2-WS. While maintaining the same industry leading signal-to-noise, the S2G2-WS includes battery operability for full operational autonomy, the S2G2 also employs industry standard probe connections for common tube inspection applications, meaning that existing fleets of tube inspection probes can be used with the S2G2-WS.

This latest creation from SG NDT offers numerous advantages, featuring enhanced performance through new functionalities, all within a newly designed, streamlined enclosure.

Accessories

Compatible Probes and Accessories

SPEN Weld Inspection

These probes employ a tangential coil arrangement enabling dynamic lift-off technology. These probes are ideal for inspections where access is limited, or where arrays are not suitable.

WAVE Probe 180

This probe is specially designed to perform manual, encoded inspections of carbon steel and stainless-steel butt welds that have a rough surface finish. The probe is equipped with dynamic lift-off technology, which makes it ideal for inspecting painted welds without having to remove the paint.

WAVE Probe 090

This probe is specially designed to perform manual, encoded inspections of carbon steel and stainless-steel butt and fillet welds that have a rough surface finish. The probe is equipped with dynamic lift-off technology, which makes it ideal for inspecting painted welds without having to remove the paint.

Internal Bobbin Probes for Tube Inspection

The S2G2-WS also supports a range of tube inspection probes to enable inspection techniques including ECT/ECA, RTF/RFA, NFT/NFA and MFL.

Digital Encoders

Digital encoders can be utilized in numerous applications. They prove to be highly beneficial when precise positional data is necessary, such as when monitoring the size or location of a defect over a period of time. Encoders are an inexpensive and simple accessory that can aid in conducting better inspections.

Software

EMMA Software Interface

The heart of all SG NDT inspection instruments is our own EMMA software, having been developed through many years of continuous research and development to support the most demanding of electromagnetic inspection applications.

EMMA is a powerful and intuitive software designed for use across the entire range of SG NDT electronics and supporting several electromagnetic methods, including:

  • Eddy Current / Eddy Current Array

  • RFT / RFT Array

  • NFT / NFT Array

  • MFL / MFL Array

  • EMMA is your new inspection partner for Eddy Current and Eddy Current Array non-destructive inspections.

LabVIEW Software Development Kit:

The LabVIEW SDK enables users to quickly and easily interface with any S2G2 device.

API Documentation:

SG NDT can provide all necessary information required to interface with the device, to program the device and acquire signals through a TCPIP link.
