UDS2-73 Ultrasonic Double Rail Flaw Detector
The flaw detector is intended for defect detection on the running surface of both rails and in the rail cross-section, excluding rail base blades. It employs a flaw detection trolley for continuous testing and manual probes for confirmatory testing of individual rail cross-section segments and welded joints.
Ergonomic and Reliable
The UDS2-73 is intended for continuous inspection of rails and railway switches at a speed of 4 km/h with further verification of indications via the hand testing procedure.
The flaw detector consists of an electronic unit, 4 multiplexer units, 26 probe units, a storage battery, and 2 couplant tanks fixed onto a trolley.
Multiple channels (26 for continuous testing and 2 for hand testing) are capable of providing complete inspection of the rail (excluding its base blades). Every other millimeter of traveled distance is scanned with the results saved to the internal memory.
The recorded data can be presented as A-scan, B-scan, or A-scan + B-scan. The results can be retrieved as individual reports linked to path and GPS coordinates.
Instrument Service Functions
sound and visual alarm, mode switching with the help of “hot buttons”;
electronic registration of test results from all channels allows reinterpreting them and making complete reports;
mode of determining the rail type and automatic correction of settings;
mode of testing bolt holes with special settings;
B-Scan in real time is used from one, two or four channels (of the left and right rails of driving-into and driving-out channels) for the in-depth analysis of detected signals, apart from the common information display in the form of А-scan;
possibility of TCG curve (of any shape) plotting.
