Ultrasonic Thickness Measurements
Ultrasonic thickness measurements are the result of
the mathematical product of the velocity of sound in a
material and the transit time of the soundwaves through
the material. The transit time is the data obtained by
the ultrasonic equipment.
Velocity of Sound
The accuracy of ultrasonic thickness measurements
and of flaw location depends to a major degree on the
velocity of sound through the material. This velocity
value is dependent on characteristics of the material
being tested, and is generally independent of the
operation of the test instrument.
This manual describes means for calibrating the
instrument and its internal calculations for the velocity
of sound value of the test material when it is known, or
for finding the velocity of sound empirically using test
blocks of the test material which are accessible for
concurrent mechanical thickness measurement. No
claim, explicit or implied, is included as to the
uniformity of the velocity of sound throughout any given
0-10
Temperature Dependence
Velocity of sound is affected to varying degrees by the
temperature of the material through which the sound
travels. When temperature variables are expected,
frequent checks must be made to maintain instrument
calibration for the changing test conditions. Velocity
changes due to temperature variation may affect the
material being inspected, transducer delay lines and
other equipment components.

Important Notice
conditions, instrument, probe parameters, etc., the
second echo or other echo signal combinations may
produce a readable signal. The instrument reading and
apparent thickness are up to about twice the actual
value, resulting in a condition that is sometimes called
doubling.
Krautkramer instruments have conservative
specifications in this regard, which in most cases will
prevent misreadings. When using a A-scan readout,
the condition is usually apparent to the trained operator.
Readings using instruments with only analog or digital
meter indicators, in this thinner range, should be further
evaluated when the reading value is between the
specification minimum and about twice that value.
Confirmation of the real thickness can usually be
obtained using an ultrasonic flaw detector with CRT
presentation, suitably calibrated, whereby individual
echo signals can more readily be identified and
evaluated.

Warranty
When used in accordance with the manufacturers written instructions and under normal operating conditions,
Krautkramer USN 58 Series test instruments are conditionally guaranteed to be free from defects in material
and workmanship for a period of two (2) years from date
of shipment. Free second year warranty requires the
instrument to be recertified by a designated
Krautkramer Service Center or by an authorized representative or distributor, within 13 months of the date of
purchase. A normal recalibration and recertification fee
will apply.
All repair work will be made FOB Lewistown, Pennsylvania, or at a Factory Trained Service Center as
advised by GE Inspection Technologies, LP provided
the defective unit is returned properly packed with all
transportation charges prepaid. Any and all equipment
replacement will be at the sole discretion of GE
Inspection Technologies, LP.
This warranty shall not apply to equipment subjected to
misuse or abuse, improper installation, alteration, neglect, or accident. Excluded from this warranty are
expendable items such as transducers, interconnecting

when batteries are too weak for reliable operation.
Settings are saved and restored when the USN 58 is
turned on again. When testing in remote locations,
always carry spare batteries and/or battery pack.
H Note:
Your instrument was supplied with the standard Lithium
battery pack. The Lithium Battery pack can be charged
on-board and also power the instrument during
charging. If you selected the optional D-cells and
received a charger it should only be used for 9.0 Ahr

Data set files are used to store a specific instrumentsetup configuration. Instrument settings, and the active
A-Scan, present when the data set file is created are
stored in the file. Table 5-1 lists all settings saved in a
data set file. When the data set file is recalled, all
instrument settings are modified to match the settings
stored in the data set file. However, once a data set file
is opened, instrument settings may be modified from
their data-set-file configurations. However, these
changes will only affect the data set file if
additional actions are taken to do so as described

H Note:
Storing an AWS reference will automatically switch the
value of the AWS MODE function (located in the
POSITION Submenu of the TRIG Menu) to ON. While
AWS MODE is ON, two measurement result boxes will
be automatically set (if not already configured) to
display SA and A%A values. These result selections
will remain locked until AWS MODE is turned OFF.
Step 5: Adjust the gain until the peak of the testpieces echo reaches the desired screen height as
shown in Figure 6-4.
H Note:
The dB value that is recorded for A-Indication will be
automatically adjusted based upon the amplitude
difference between it and the value recorded for B-REF.
It will usually NOT match the instruments dB gain
setting.

The TCG CURVE graphically represents the level of
gain applied at each of the user-input reference points.
This compensating gain is represented by the height of
the TCG curve while the material depth of each
reference point is represented by its horizontal position
on the display screen.

H Note:
When A Gates or B Gates START MODE function is
set to IF GATE, any change in the IF-Gates first flank
crossing point will automatically produce an equal
change in the starting point of the linked gate. This
feature, known as Automatic Gate Tracking, exists
between Gates A and B when B-Gates START MODE
is set to A-GATE.

FIGURE 9-1The START MODE function allows you to link the starting point of Gates A and B to the IF Gates first
flank crossing point. The flank crossing is always used as a reference, whether the IF Gates detection setting is set to
flank or peak. It also allows you to link the starting point of Gate B to Gate A.

A spare Lithium battery pack can be recharged by
simply connecting it to the Lithium Battery Pack
Charger.
The Lithium battery packs charging cycle takes
approximately seven hours to complete. The
instrument can be used while the Lithium charger is
connected and the battery pack is being charged but
the charging time will be somewhat longer.
