The document discusses the NDT1-220K ultrasonic transducer, including its features, specifications, applications and ordering information.

Typical properties include a center frequency of 3 MHz, bandwidth of 1.7-4 MHz, Q-factor of 1.3, and impedance of 100 ohms. Specifications include operating temperature range and storage temperature range.

Applications mentioned include liquid presence/absence detection, thickness measurement, liquid depth measurement, and speed of sound measurement.

NDT1-220K Ultrasonic Transducer

Low cost ultrasonic transducer Flexible Format 3 MHz nominal center frequency High Bandwith; Low Q Performance Low Impedance

The NDT1-220K element offers


outstanding ultrasonic transducer performance in a low-cost, flexible format for general-purpose use. 3 MHz nominal center frequency, with extremely low Q-factor of 1.3 (air-backed, into PMMA). Electrical impedance is well matched to conventional NDT instrumentation (pulsar/receivers). Unit-to-unit repeatability is very good. The transducer is robust, and conforms perfectly to cylindrical surfaces such as pipe or tank walls. Epoxies, transfer adhesives, or even double-coated tapes may be used as bonding agents.
