Preface

MG2 Series Ultrasonic Gages (MG2, MG2-XT, MG2-DL) are

designed and manufactured as precision instruments. Under normal

working conditions, they will provide long, trouble-free service.

Damage in transit - Inspect the unit thoroughly immediately upon

receipt for evidence of external or internal damage that may have

occurred during shipment. Notify the carrier making the delivery

immediately of any damage, since the carrier is normally liable for

damage in shipment. Preserve packing materials, waybills, and other

shipping documentation in order to establish damage claims. After

notifying the carrier, contact Olympus NDTTM so that we may assist

you in the damage claims, and provide replacement equipment, if

necessary.

Warranty

Olympus NDT guarantees MG2 Series Ultrasonic Gages to be free

from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of two years

(twenty-four months) from date of shipment. The warranty covers

only equipment that has been used in a proper manner as described in

this instruction manual and has not been subject to excessive abuse,

unauthorized repair, or modification. DURING THIS WARRANTY

PERIOD, Olympus NDT LIABILITY IS STRICTLY LIMITED TO

REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF A DEFECTIVE UNIT AT ITS

OPTION. Olympus NDT does not warrant MG2 Series Ultrasonic

Gages to be suitable for intended use, and assumes no responsibility

for unsuitability for intended use. Olympus NDT accepts no liability

for consequential or incidental damages including damage to property

and/or personal injury.

This warranty does not include the transducer, transducer cable,

charger or battery. The customer will pay shipping expense to the

Olympus NDTTM plant for warranty repair; Olympus NDT will pay

for the return of the repaired equipment. For instruments not under

warranty, the customer will pay shipping expenses both ways.

Olympus NDT offers an optional third year warranty coverage (at an

additional cost), under the same terms, at the time of purchase.

Olympus NDT reserves the right to modify all products without

incurring responsibility for modifying previously manufactured

products. Olympus NDT does not assume liability for the results of

particular installations, as these circumstances are not within our

control.

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

Panametrics-NDTTM MG2 Series Ultrasonic Gages are designed for a

wide range of applications including quick spot measurements to

determine wall thickness of various structures and measurement of

corroded metal. The MG2 series includes:

• MG2 - Features include: Automatic probe recognition, quick

compensations for transducer temperature changes, fast scan min

hold mode with 20 readings/sec and freeze function, selectable

Hold or Blank display during loss of signal (LOS) conditions,

LCD with selectable backlight or auto backlight for a highly

readable display under all lighting conditions, selectable English/

metric units, selectable calibration lockout functions to prevent

accidental change to calibration, selectable resolutions .001"

(.01mm) or .01" (.1mm), easy calibration for unknown material

velocity and/or transducer zero, and automatic power off.

• MG2-XT - Features include: Automatic probe recognition, quick

compensations for transducer temperature changes, fast scan min

hold mode with 20-readings/sec and freeze function, freeze func-

tion that instantly freezes displayed measurement, differential

mode that displays the difference between the actual thickness

and a user set nominal reference value, THRU-COAT®that dis-

plays the thickness of the coating and the true metal thickness

using a single backwall echo, Echo-to-Echo that displays the true

metal thickness and ignores the thickness of the coating layer,

High-Low Alarm that indicates out of tolerance measurements,

Gain Adjustment to help enable measurements in difficult appli-

cations, Material Sensitivity Optimization, selectable Hold or

Blank display during loss of signal (LOS) conditions, LCD with

selectable backlight or auto backlight for a highly readable dis-

play under all lighting conditions, selectable calibration lockout

functions to prevent accidental change to calibration, selectable

resolutions .001" (.01mm) or .01" (.1mm), and easy calibration

for unknown material velocity and/or transducer zero.

• MG2-DL - Features include: Quick compensations for transducer

temperature changes, fast scan min hold mode with 20 readings/

sec and freeze function, freeze function that instantly freezes dis-

played measurement, differential mode that displays the differ-

ence between the actual thickness and a user set nominal

reference value, THRU-COAT®that displays the thickness of the

coating and the true metal thickness using a single backwall

echo, Echo-to-Echo that displays the true metal thickness and

ignores the thickness of the coating layer, High-Low Alarm that

indicates out of tolerance measurements, Gain Adjustment to

help enable measurements in difficult applications, Material Sen-

sitivity Optimization, On-Board Datalogger for storage of up to

8000 thickness readings, and USB output for computer interface.
