TEC/TED - Attached/Detachable
The eddy current air conditioner probes offer solid construction for durability. They include a differential bobbin set and a circumferentially sensitive pancake array. They offer better detection capability at the transition zone in addition to detection of circumferentially oriented cracks.
Recommendations
Heavy tube wall: TEC and TED probes are not recommended for wall thicknesses over 2.0 mm (0.08 in.), because the inspection may be limited to the inside. Note that these probes require the TE-ADP-004 adapter.
Features
- Solid construction for durability.
- Includes a differential bobbin set and a circumferentially-sensitive pancake array.
- Detection of circumferentially-oriented cracks.
- Better detection capability in the transition zone.
- Ideal for air-conditioner tubing.

Probe design
The air conditioning probe combines pancake arrays with standard differential bobbins for detection of circumferentially oriented cracks.
