SPYModel 785 -High-Voltage Pulse Detector for Thin Film Coatings

SHARE
The Model 785 is a versatile high-voltage pulse detector designed for inspecting thin film coatings ranging from 4 to 150 mils (0.10mm to 3.81mm). It offers an infinite voltage setting adjustable from 1kV to 15kV, accommodating various coating thicknesses including coal tars, extruded, and tape coatings. This flexibility allows for continuous inspection without changing detectors, suitable for pipe sizes from two to sixty inches. The device is equipped with auto-regulated voltage to maintain consistent output, compensating for factors like pipe size and moisture. The quick release battery system in the kit includes two 12V rechargeable batteries, allowing one to charge while the other is in use, ensuring uninterrupted operation. Built for rugged environments, the unit comes housed in a weather-proof molded ABS plastic carrying case with cushioned inserts. The device also features an LCD display, audible and visual holiday indicators, and complies with various international standards such as AS 3894.1 and NACE SP0188. This detector provides reliable, intelligent operation with improved control and fast setup, making it a robust choice for industrial coating inspections.

For thicker coatings such as coal tars, extruded and tape coatings, the Model 785 has a range of infinite voltage settings from 1,000 to 15,000 volts. This wide range permits you to maintain a steady inspection rate on most types of coatings on most pipe sizes without changing detectors. Pulse voltage output only.

INFINITE VOLTAGE SETTING allows you to set the voltage exactly to the level you desire for the coating you are inspecting. Not six settings, not twenty… any setting you desire over the complete range of each detector model. Whatever the pipe size, two inches through sixty inches, you have at your control the exact voltage setting required.

AUTO REGULATED VOLTAGE keeps your voltage constant! Over a range of two inch through sixty inch pipe the detector output voltage automatically adjusts under the working load to the voltage levels you set. Now you can forget compensations for pipe size, or moisture on the pipe – the detectors automatically make these adjustments.

QUICK RELEASE BATTERY easily slips into position with a snap that announces positive contact and a secure lock in position. Two batteries and a universal charger are part of the kit. For continuous service, one battery is kept charging (approx. 8 hours) while the other powers the unit.
