display 11 00:00:39,318 --> 00:00:41,785 and environmentally rugged specifications, 12 00:00:41,786 --> 00:00:45,036 make the EPOCH 650 a powerful inspection tool. 13 00:00:45,038 --> 00:00:47,296 The newest addition to the EPOCH family 14 00:00:47,298 --> 00:00:49,641 is designed to meet the standards of EN twelve 15 00:00:49,643 --> 00:00:52,376 six six eight dash one twenty ten. 16 00:00:52,378 --> 00:00:54,538 It comes standard with our PerfectSquare™ 17 00:00:54,540 --> 00:00:56,700 tunable square wave pulser technology, 18 00:00:56,701 --> 00:00:58,735 a full screen A-scan mode, 19 00:00:58,736 --> 00:01:01,326 and multiple inspection technique features 20 00:01:01,328 --> 00:01:03,575 such as DAC / TCG, 21 00:01:03,576 --> 00:01:04,831 DGS, 22 00:01:04,833 --> 00:01:06,855 and our AWS D one one 23 00:01:06,856 --> 00:01:10,120 D one five indication rating calculator. 24 00:01:10,121 --> 00:01:12,836 The EPOCH 650 is available in either a knob 25 00:01:12,838 --> 00:01:15,095 or navigation pad configuration 26 00:01:15,096 --> 00:01:17,163 to meet the preferences of any user, 27 00:01:17,165 --> 00:01:19,031 and can be configured with BNC 28 00:01:19,033 --> 00:01:21,475 or large LEMO transducer connectors. 29 00:01:21,476 --> 00:01:23,363 Direct access key functions 30 00:01:23,365 --> 00:01:26,475 support immediate access to important inspection controls 31 00:01:26,476 --> 00:01:28,906 without the need for menu navigation. 32 00:01:28,908 --> 00:01:32,693 The instrument also features a standard VGA output port, 33 00:01:32,695 --> 00:01:34,621 as well as a digital I/O port 34 00:01:34,623 --> 00:01:36,750 for alarm output, serial communication, 35 00:01:36,751 --> 00:01:39,226 and trigger pulse synchronization. 36 00:01:39,228 --> 00:01:41,808 Ultrasonically, the EPOCH 650 is flexible 37 00:01:41,810 --> 00:01:44,876 for a wide variety of applications, including metals, 38 00:01:44,878 --> 00:01:46,866 composites and polymers. 39 00:01:46,868 --> 00:01:49,281 It features much finer pulse width control 40 00:01:49,283 --> 00:01:51,486 than previous generation EPOCH instruments, 41 00:01:51,488 --> 00:01:55,471 allowing for the highest level of pulse optimization we’ve ever offered. 42 00:01:55,473 --> 00:01:57,570 This benefits both precision applications 43 00:01:57,571 --> 00:01:59,726 for thin materials and small flaws, 44 00:01:59,728 --> 00:02:02,121 as well as high penetration applications 45 00:02:02,123 --> 00:02:04,550 using low frequency transducers. 46 00:02:04,551 --> 00:02:07,155 Improving the signal to noise ratio for inspections 47 00:02:07,156 --> 00:02:09,608 on highly scattering or grainy materials 48 00:02:09,610 --> 00:02:13,231 is easily managed by the EPOCH 650’s receiver filters. 49 00:02:13,233 --> 00:02:16,230 The instrument features thirty digital filter sets, 50 00:02:16,231 --> 00:02:18,370 all with industry leading performance 51 00:02:18,371 --> 00:02:21,425 and optimized for near surface resolution. 52 00:02:21,426 --> 00:02:24,670 The EPOCH 650 allows optimal A-scan visibility 53 00:02:24,671 --> 00:02:27,963 during inspections through a full screen inspection mode. 54 00:02:27,965 --> 00:02:31,863 While in this mode, the user still has access to all direct function keys 55 00:02:31,865 --> 00:02:34,253 and visibility to instrument measurements 56 00:02:34,255 --> 00:02:38,095 without crowding the display with vertical and horizontal menus. 57 00:02:38,096 --> 00:02:41,290 After obtaining fast and reliable inspection results, 58 00:02:41,291 --> 00:02:46,031 providing a final report has never been easier than with the EPOCH 650. 59 00:02:46,033 --> 00:02:49,748 Multiple efficient report formats and outputs are available, 60 00:02:49,750 --> 00:02:54,251 including screen shots, csv files, and XML files. 61 00:02:54,253 --> 00:02:58,081 Inspection data can also be sent directly to the microSD card 62 00:02:58,083 --> 00:03:00,520 in a new, preset report format. 63 00:03:00,521 --> 00:03:04,791 Each report is saved on removable memory as a BITMAP picture file, 64 00:03:04,793 --> 00:03:07,806 allowing you to include EPOCH 650 inspection data 65 00:03:07,808 --> 00:03:10,553 in virtually any computer report. 66 00:03:10,555 --> 00:03:12,983 To enhance static reporting capabilities, 67 00:03:12,985 --> 00:03:16,741 the EPOCH 650 comes standard with a video capture tool. 68 00:03:16,743 --> 00:03:20,165 This Video Record function collects up to eight minutes of data 69 00:03:20,166 --> 00:03:23,766 at a full screen update rate of sixty hertz. 70 00:03:23,768 --> 00:03:26,283 The data can be reviewed on-board the EPOCH 71 00:03:26,285 --> 00:03:32,010 or quickly transferred to a PC for review and archiving. 72 00:03:32,011 --> 00:03:35,033 The EPOCH 650 offers a standard color coded 73 00:03:35,035 --> 00:03:37,476 grid view feature in all modes. 74 00:03:37,478 --> 00:03:40,236 This feature can be used for corrosion inspections, 75 00:03:40,238 --> 00:03:43,128 but can also be used during single crystal inspections 76 00:03:43,130 --> 00:03:46,873 for quality control and other data collection surveys. 77 00:03:46,875 --> 00:03:48,550 Optional Corrosion Module software 78 00:03:48,551 --> 00:03:51,403 is also available to increase the setup speed, 79 00:03:51,405 --> 00:03:52,516 ease of use, 80 00:03:52,518 --> 00:03:56,266 and measurement precision of corrosion-erosion inspections. 81 00:03:56,268 --> 00:03:58,721 Rapid part screening and defect reporting 82 00:03:58,723 --> 00:04:02,606 is enhanced in this mode by an encoded B-scan feature. 83 00:04:02,608 --> 00:04:04,951 These are just some of the exciting capabilities 84 00:04:04,953 --> 00:04:08,658 that the EPOCH 650 offers the conventional UT market. 85 00:04:08,660 --> 00:04:11,891 Its durability, usability and ultrasonic performance 86 00:04:11,893 --> 00:04:14,748 bring the highest level of confidence to any inspector, 87 00:04:14,750 --> 00:04:16,675 and are backed by Olympus’s global team 88 00:04:16,676 --> 00:04:19,691 of application and service support personnel. 89 00:04:19,693 --> 00:04:20,975 For more
