VP-12-US

Versatile Port For Ultrasound Inspections

A standard and systematic approach to data collection is essential to establishing a repeatable and reproducible condition based monitoring program. VP-12-US standardizes location and method for accessing consistent and quality acoustic data regardless of ultrasound technician experience or enclosure rating. Easily identify potentially hazardous faults such as arcing, tracking and corona in electrical distribution systems and switchgear. Ventilated switchgear ports standardize the measurement point. NEMA rated enclosures require only access through the ultrasound port where technicians can safely collect data on energized equipment in accordance with NFPA 70E safety mandates. The grill allows ultrasound but prevents objects being pushed through the hole into the panel. Polymer IR windows continues with the VP-12-IR.

Features

Proudly Made in the United States

IRISS manufactures and assembles all products at our global headquarters located in Bradenton, FL.

Protected by our Unconditional Lifetime Warranty

The IRISS Unconditional lifetime warranty is unique in the IR industry as it not only applies not only to the workmanship of the window housing but also applies to the durability and stability of the optic in the proposed environment. No other manufacturer can offer this because crystal optics will fail over time, and are only able to at best offer a limited lifetime warranty for manufacturing defects.

Environmentally Sealed Design

The VP-12-US Series of products are constructed from switchgear grade Nylon plastic with an aluminum cover and stainless steel mounting screws. Seamless custom gaskets ensure the NEMA4 / IP65 ingress protection rating is maintained.
