P-Series

Economical Power Pack Magnetic Current Generators

P-Series portable power packs are convenient and economical inspection units that are used in a wide range of magnetic particle inspection applications that require only moderate power.

These portable electromagntic current generators are ideal for inspecting large or heavy parts, in-service mobile equipment or job-site weld testing with magnetic particle inspection NDT method.

P-Series power packs are availble in two configurations P-70 and P-1500 to meet a variety of mag particle inspection needs. Click on the tabs below for more details on these configurations.

Benefits

Find surface defects with AC current; switch cable connection to half wave DC (HWDC) for near-surface flaws
Locate defects in any direction using prods, central conductor, coil (wrap part with 3-5 turns of cable)
Infinitely variable current control
Demagnetize parts in AC mode by slowly turning the current dial to zero
Built-in automatic-reset circuit breaker
May be used as the main power source for the Mag Kit modular bench inspection system
All P-70 and P-1500 portable power packs come with a 15 ft / 4.5 m remote control cable (PN 626797)
