EchoPure is the most universal water-soluble/water-free UT couplant and
the couplant of choice for Phased Array Manual UT (PAMUT) Inspection.
EchoPure improves defect reproducibility by eliminating dry spots under
the wedge and the resulting noise and artifacts.
EchoPure complies with P91 steel inspection requirement for a water-free couplant. EchoPure is an ideal
couplant for very cold environment inspections and will not frost on test objects causing attenuation at
temperatures as low as -60˚F/51˚C. EchoPure is also excellent for ambient and elevated temperature use
such as warm welds up to 350˚F and on pipe in the desert summer sun, where slow evaporation and long
inspection windows are desired.
