  • Page 21: Introduction

    Introduction This manual provides instructions and technical specifications for the InterBox, which is a wiring interconnection box that can be mounted on an Olympus scanner to simplify the cable connections between the scanner and its acquisition instrument. To help you understand and safely use the InterBox, this manual contains an equipment overview, connection details, maintenance instructions, and detailed specifications.

  • Page 23: Overview

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 1. Overview The EIB-T-8-M-15-OM InterBox model is an example of one of the four available models (see Figure 1-1 on page 17). Depending on the model chosen, it is possible to connect one or two phased array probes, up to two pairs of TOFD probes, and up to eight conventional UT transducers to the InterBox.
  • Page 24 DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 The InterBox design eliminates the individual component cables between the scanner and the acquisition unit, and minimizes the encumbrance needed on the scanner to install the pulser/receiver extension box and the PA probe splitter. Depending on the model, the InterBox integrates a splitter (for phased array probes), a remote pulser/preamplifier (for TOFD inspections), or multiple UT channels, and is therefore well-suited for certain applications that require a combination of these features.
  • Page 25: Connections And Cables

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 2. Connections and Cables Depending on the InterBox model, different instrument connectors and different cables are provided, and therefore the connection procedures may vary. Connections to the Acquisition Unit The InterBox is connected to an acquisition instrument by using an OmniScan or Hypertronics connector and cable.

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 Power-Cable Connector—for Models with TRPP 5810 Pulser/Preamplifier The power-cable connector is marked with a red dot that must be aligned with a red dot on the connector receptacle on the InterBox before the connection is made (see Figure 2-2 on page 20 and Figure 2-3 on page 21).
  • Page 27: Tofd Connectors- For Models With Trpp 5810 Pulser/Preamplifier

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 The red LED illuminates when power is connected. InterBox with TRPP 5810 offers two different cables for a power-source connection (OmniScan or AC power). Figure 2-3 The power cable connection TOFD Connectors— for Models with TRPP 5810 Pulser/Preamplifier The TOFD connectors (pulsers and receivers) are mounted in the section labeled TRPP 5810 (see Figure 2-4 on page 21).
  • Page 28: Figure 2-5 The Label With Probe-Connection Diagram

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 The label on the InterBox face opposing the TOFD connectors provides the connection information for the integrated TRPP 5810 pulser/preamplifier (see Figure 2-5 on page 22): • P1 and P2 identify the pulser outputs • R1 and R2 identify the receiver inputs These codes, as well as the channel numbers, are marked next to each connector (see Figure 2-4 on page 21).
  • Page 29: Conventional Ut Connectors

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 Conventional UT Connectors The connections for conventional ultrasonic transducers are located on the right side of the acquisition-data cable (see Figure 2-6 on page 23). The channel numbers are marked next to each connector. Conventional UT connections with channel numbers Figure 2-6 The conventional UT connections The power output from the conventional UT channels is limited to 80 V.

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 Figure 2-7 The protective covers for phased array connectors (PA1 and PA2) The connector receptacles are identified as PA1 and PA2. The highest channel number on each PA range depends on how many channels are used for TOFD and conventional UT connections.
  • Page 31: Figure 2-8 Removing The Pa Protective Covers

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 To maintain the water resistance of the InterBox, the PA connectors must be covered by the protective covers even when there is no PA probe connected to the instrument. To connect a phased array connector to the InterBox Remove the phased array protective cover (see Figure 2-8 on page 25).

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 Figure 2-9 Aligning the OmniScan connector To avoid connector-pin problems, always make sure that the connector is aligned straight with respect to the receptacle before pushing it into the receptacle. Push the connector into the receptacle to ensure a good connection (see Figure 2-10 on page 26).
  • Page 33: Interbox Installation

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 InterBox Installation The InterBox can be attached to an Olympus HSMT manual scanner with the supplied mounting bracket (see Figure 2-12 on page 28). A pair of T-nuts with thumb screws secures the InterBox to the frame of the scanner (see Figure 2-11 on page 27 and Figure 2-12 on page 28).

  • Page 35: Maintenance

    DMTA031-01EN, Rev. B, October 2014 3. Maintenance The InterBox requires very little maintenance to keep it in good physical and working condition. A periodic inspection and, depending on the operating environment, periodic cleaning may be required. Preventive Maintenance The InterBox does not require preventive maintenance. Only a regular inspection of the product is recommended to ensure that the InterBox functions correctly.
