AC/DC Magnetic Particle Yoke – MPI Yokes QualiMPI™ X1
AC/DC Magnetic Particle Yoke – MPI Yokes QualiMPI™ X1 features a compact design, efficient layout, lightweight build, and easy portability. It's ideal for detecting surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials across a range of steel structures, including boilers, pressure vessels, pipelines, and welded assemblies used in industries such as energy, metallurgy, petrochemicals, and manufacturing.
This unit can operate directly on AC power and may also be configured with optional AC or DC magnetization for added flexibility and performance. It is particularly well-suited for inspecting weld seams on ships, elevated steel structures, and internal sections of pressure vessels.
Instructions for Use
- Connect one end of the probe wire to the electromagnetic yoke, and the other end to a 220V AC (110V is also available) outlet (or to a DC or AC magnetization power source). Ensure all connections are secure.
- Make sure both magnetic poles of the yoke are in firm contact with the workpiece. Spray the area with a magnetic suspension solution either alcohol-based, black oil-based, water-based, or fluorescent (a UV light is required for fluorescent suspension). Press the switch on the yoke to begin magnetization. Release the switch to stop.
- After completing the inspection, disconnect the yoke from the power source.
- For extended use, follow this operating cycle: magnetization should last no longer than 3 seconds, followed by a rest period of at least 5 seconds.
- Ensure the magnetic poles are in full contact with the surface before activating the switch for effective magnetization.
- Always release the switch before removing the yoke from the surface. Avoid operating the device without contact between the magnetic poles and the workpiece to prevent overheating and potential damage.
With its compact design, efficient layout, lightweight build, and easy portability, this AC/DC Magnetic Particle Yoke – MPI Yokes is ideal for identifying surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials. It is widely applicable across industries such as power generation, metallurgy, petrochemicals, and manufacturing, and is well-suited for use on boilers, pressure vessels, pipelines, and various welded structures.
The device can operate directly on AC power and also supports both AC and DC magnetization power sources for flexible, efficient use. It is particularly effective for inspecting welds on ship hulls, elevated steel structures, and the interior surfaces of pressure vessels.
