• Dry-Coupled piezoelectric sensors permit inspection
without couplant on non-metallic components. These systems use non-contact EMAT or dry-coupling methods to
provide rapid non-destructive measurements without couplant.
• Great accuracy (+/-2.5 µm) and lateral resolution

WiFi or Ethernet from any internet browser. coupled piezoelectric transducers are combined with Innerspec’s
high-power instrumentation to permit inspection of non-metallic
or highly-resistive materials without the need for
liquid couplant.

The TG-IL instrumentation is housed in a small

industrial enclosure located near the point of
inspection that broadcasts its own wireless signal.
Display and control are available from any device
connected to the instrument via WiFi or the
industrial Ethernet port using a regular internet
browser.
