UKVS-1 Inspection system for water content

Inspection system UKVS-1

Inspection system UKVS-1 is intended for non-destructive ultrasonic testing water content in cellular airplane units IL-86, IL-96, IL-76, ÒU-204, ÀÍ-124 ("Ruslan"), etc., and also helicopters MI-28N, ÌI-24 and so forth under operating conditions. The water which has got in units reduces durability of glue joints, causes corrosion of a foil of honeycomb, leads to increase weight and to change of centering of units and at water freezing - to a separation of a covering from cellular filler or to unit destruction. The presence testing, definition of the locations and a quantity of water in glued cellular designs of planes is one of the important problems in safety of flights of planes and helicopters.




Differential characteristic

  • Use flaw detector UD2V-P46 or UD4-Ò as the high-precision measuring module;
  • The testing is carried out, as on the units removed from the plane in the conditions of a hangar, and are direct by the plane on periodic forms of maintenance service;
  • Materials of coverings and honeycombs - as metals (aluminum, its alloys, etc.), and nonmetals - composite materials;
  • Thickness of coverings 0,4-2 mm, the size of cellular cells 2,5-5 mm;
  • Locality of the testing - 5 mm, is found out water in a separate cellular cell;
  • High sensitivity of a method - the minimum found out water level in a cellular cell - from 0,5 mm.


Basic Delivery Set

  • Ultrasonic flaw detector UD2V-P46.LD or UD4-Ò ;
  • Local immersion a bath;
  • Industrial the high-frequency immersion transducer;
  • The pump with system water delivery in a local bath;
  • Batteries 12V 12À/hr with recharger;
  • Transport and protective bag.
