The USM Go is the lightest and most portable ultrasonic flaw detector available from GE Sensing & Inspection Technologies. The USM Go is designed for ease of prolonged operation in the harshest inspection environments in the oil and gas, aerospace, power generation and automotive industries.
Ergonomically Designed with the User in Mind
The USM Go ultrasonic portable flaw detector has been ergonomically designed to provide an instrument which is light, small and easy to use in the harshest of inspection environments. Its ergonomic features include;
Portability
- Small size and weight, which allow the instrument to be easily operated in confined spaces and areas of difficult access.
- Light enough to be carried throughout a whole day’s shift
- Battery provides up to 5,5 hours operation. Can be recharged on- or off-board.
Easy-to-Read Screen
- A display screen which is the same size as those in other GE flaw detectors, even though the instrument is much smaller than other instruments in the range.
- An 800x480 pixel display, which is better resolution than a standard DVD.
- A screen with an optimized aspect ratio to ensure highly defined echo separation.
- A screen which can be easily viewed, whether hand-held or desk-mounted.
- A screen which has been ergonomically sized to help reduce eyestrain.
Ease of Use
- Can be operated with one hand, leaving other hand free for other tasks, such as maintaining probe in optimum position or holding onto ladders.
- Features incorporated pressure-sensitive, navigation joystick control derived from the range of remote visual inspection equipment offered by GE.
- All controls within fingertip reach. User can dedicate four function keys according to preference.
- A “Flip” function allows the instrument to be used equally well by left-handed and right-handed people.
- A detachable stand allows the user to optimize the viewing angle, when the instrument is desk- or bench-mounted. The attachment point is suitable for a standard tripod thread.
Versatile and Upgradeable
Customized versions of the USM Go are also available, specially adapted to meet specific inspection codes or applications. For example, an optional square wave pulser can be supplied for applications involving the inspection of highly attenuative material, such as castings and forgings. The versions shown in the table are currently available.
