Nova TG 900 Series
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges Button
The Nova 900 series are precision gauges offering higher accuracy than the general purpose gauges. Available in hand held or Bench top configuration, a range of transducers are available to cover most precision thickness gauging requirements.  Models available: NOVA TG 900, NOVA TG 910, NOVA TG 930 and NOVA TG 950
Nova TG 900 Series Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge Series
The Nova TG 900 Series Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges are now available in both hand-held and bench top versions, from 4 key simple to full featured. Some standard features include High Speed Pulse Rep Rate, 0.0001 Resolution to a minimum of 0.0035 (probe & application dependent) Auto-set, B-Scan and 50,000 Point Logger as well as storage of 30 custom user Set-ups on 930 Hand-held & 950 Bench top, Delta Mode, High & Low Alarms, Thickness/velocity readout, High Speed LED Numeric Display (readable up to 10 feet away) and LCD Menu display on Bench Top, High Contrast LCD Display on Hand Held, English/Metric units, RS-232C on Hand Held as well as RS232 and USB digital I/O port on Bench Top, NiMH batteries, scope outputs, AC power module/battery charger. • High-Resolution (0.0001in, 0.0025mm) • Simple to use • Auto probe recognition The Nova 900 Series represents the latest release and a dramatic advancement in portable precision ultrasonic thickness gauges. A proprietary monolithic integrated circuit chip and a highly advanced micro-computerized design have permitted the achievement of performance levels considered only conceptual, The outgrowth of this technology has been the development of three portable and two Bench top models in the Nova 900 Series. These ruggedized, highly stable models have been carefully designed to offer a choice of features to best suit the application level, gauging environment and user preference.
Nova TG 900, Nova TG 930, Nova TG 910, Nova TG 950 precision ultrasonic thickness testers Nova TG 900 Series Ultrasonic Thickness Meters | Features of each model.
All five models provide the identical base gauging performance, with variations in options and the supporting features. The Nova 910 and Nova 950 incorporate a backlit LCD menu display AND a bright LED numeric display which improves view ability at a distance. The Nova 910 thickness tester is a basic gauge emphasizing operational simplicity for the more straightforward, less demanding applications. Precisely measuring material wall thickness from just one side. The Nova 950's offer a wide variety of supporting features including 50,000 point Data Logger, User set-up parameters can be modified and stored, High/Low alarms, Industry First Scan Bar, Scrolling 'B' Scan and more. Auto-set... Incorporated Into All Models Auto-set is the most outstanding feature ever designed into an ultrasonic thickness gage. It automatically recognizes the transducer which has been selected for a given application and then automatically sets all corresponding circuit parameters for peak performance... WITHOUT expensive 2 or 3 pole custom cables. A simple and easily available BNC probe cable is all that is required. Auto-set's elaborate software program issues digital commands to optimize and properly set the pulser characteristics, transducer damping and zero (auto-zero), receiver characteristics, a host of logic and gating functions, the thickness readout range (auto-range) and gaging precision. Another program, operational during calibration, even "recognizes" the basic class of material being gaged and automatically refines the measurement accuracy. Velocity control Calibration is performed by either entering the know ultrasonic velocity for the material being gaged or by setting up on a known thickness of the material. Conversely, material velocity can be measured for material of known thickness. Advanced Pulser / Receiver Featured is a highly advanced pulser receiver system which operates under automatic microprocessor control. Auto-set commands the pulser/receiver to set the proper balance between system sensitivity and bandwidth for each selected application (transducer). The receiver's design includes digitally controlled AGC (automatic gain control), DAC (distance amplitude correction) and polarity. A unique dual pulser circuit substantially enhances performance, The net result is remarkable resolving power for thin materials and exceptional penetrating power Power is provided by both a rechargeable 'AA' batteries ( user replaceable via back panel) and a universal AC plug in adapter. A power divider circuit permits the AC adapter to independently power the gage, as well as simultaneously charge its battery pack. Thus, continuous operation is always assured from an AC line source, regardless of battery condition or charge level. A battery low charge level indicator is included, while a power cut-off circuit automatically protects the battery pack from unintentional over or discharge. Also to conserve battery charge level, the gage automatically turns itself off if not used after a short time. Available on the Nova 930 & Nova 950 Only • Extra Modes: Select from factory pre-set set-ups or Modify & Save up to 30 user definable set-ups or let Auto-set do the work! • Industry's First Scan-bar displays an analogue representation of current thickness • The Delta mode; plus and minus variations from a selected nominal thickness. • The industry's FASTEST Responding, Adjustable HI/LO Alarms can be set, even activating a front panel LED in an optional Alarm Light Transducer. 500 Hz Acquisition Rate!! • "TMin" displays the minimum thickness detected across a surface scan 500 Hz Acquisition Rate!!. • The Modify mode stores up to 30 application set-ups in memory. • 2 Point Calibration Provides optimum accuracy where geometry may need to be considered • Lock provides added protection against accidentally altering the controls. • On-board Data Logger: Over 50,000 thickness readings and locations can be stored in memory. The stored data can be sent through the USB or RS232C port to a computer. Applications & Transducers There are a broad array of Nova Auto-set transducers available for the Nova 900 Series. Rather than offer many thickness gauges dedicated to various applications, the transducer actually sets a single gage to optimize for a given application. Transducers available include contact, delay line, bubbler, immersion as well as the ability to custom configure a probe to an application and assign it an Auto-set "channel" Just a few of the precision thickness gauging applications supported include: Chemical Milling, investment castings such as turbine blades for aerospace or power generation, wax castings, steel, aluminium, plastics, composite materials, fibreglass, rubber, cast parts and more...
