The ultrasonic signals are transmitted and received through contactless electromagnetic US transducers (EMAT) . Rayleigh waves were used to detect near-surface or surface flaws. The ultrasonic prototype system was designed to operate under severe conditions to inspect material for flaws, using the pulse echo method. The probe is compact, heat-resistant and robust enough to use under the most severe in-plant conditions. Due to a change in the production sequence at PSAG, it was not possible to install the system as originally intended.
