Environmental sealing (water and dustproof) to IP67 – US MIL STD 810G
Highly ruggedized enclosure – shock and impact proof to US MIL STD 810G
One and two point calibration
Can be upgraded to 4+ or 6+ at an additional cost.
Three Versatile Measuring Modes
Multiple-Echo mode uses three (error-checked) back wall echoes to provide the most reliable and accurate remaining thickness measurements. Multiple echo automatically measures through coatings up to 0.8 in. (20 mm)
Echo-Echo mode works best for measuring heavily corroded metals through thin coatings of up to 0.04 in. thick, and is ideal for measuring painted metals with heavy back wall corrosion.
Single-Echo mode is ideal for measuring uncoated metals with heavy front and/or back-wall corrosion. This mode is also effective on a range of cast metals, plastics and composites.
Measurement Stability Indicator (MSI™)
Exclusive to Cygnus, MSI™ ensures that stable and reliable measurements are displayed in Echo‑Echo and Single-Echo modes.
Specifications

Variety of Cygnus INOX Transducer
Stainless steel SINGLE CRYSTAL transducers, used in multiple-echo mode, include replaceable membranes for long life, require no zeroing and have a high linear accuracy.
Stainless steel TWIN CRYSTAL transducers, used in echo-echo and single-echo modes, have improved measurability on extreme back wall corrosion and pitting.
Transducers for use with the Cygnus 2+, 4, 4+ and 6+ gauges are fitted with a BNC or Lemo 00 connector.
Single Crystal Probes
Twin Crystal Probes
Leads
NOTE: No additional lead is required for T5B-CSW, T5A and T7A-CSWB, as the lead is molded to the probe itself.
The 2+ is a simple, versatile thickness meter designed for “hands free” operation; the unit employs an end-mounted display and three distinct measuring modes to measure the wall thickness of a variety of metals of any level of corrosion and pitting. This meter can also be used on a wide range of engineering materials such as plastics/HDPE etc.
To compliment Cygnus' ultrasonic thickness gauges, Cygnus offers a range of ultrasonic transducers. The performance of any ultrasonic thickness gauge relies heavily on the transducer and its suitability to the material being measured. Therefore, selecting the right transducer is vital. All Cygnus’ transducers are made from stainless steel and have a hard wear face or a wear membrane to protect the transducer.
