Thickness Profiles With The B-Scan - GE DMS Go+ Operating Manual

5 Operation
5.12 Thickness profiles with the
B-scan
Apart from the A-scan, the DMS Go+ presents another
possibility of graphical evaluation: the B-scan.
The B-scan enables you to display a thickness profile of
the test object on the screen of the DMS Go+.
You can carry out measurements continuously over a
maximum period of 30 seconds for the B-scan display
with the values from these measurements being used
by the DMS Go+ for displaying a subsection of the test
object. For this purpose, guide the probe over the sec-
tion to be displayed during the measurement period.
The display opposite shows the typical B-scan of a test
object with a corroded backwall.
N o t e
A valid zero calibration must be carried out
for the display of the B-scan.
The display update rate is automatically in-
creased to 32 Hz during the measurements
for the B-scan.
