Y-6

AC Electromagnetic Yoke

The Y‑6 is a rugged, lightweight, AC-powered electromagnetic yoke designed for one-hand operation in magnetic particle inspection (MPI). Its adjustable, articulated legs conform to multiple geometries, enabling reliable inspection of welds and challenging component shapes. The encapsulated, chemical- and abrasion-resistant housing ensures durability for field use.

Features

AC-powered operation: Produces a strong tangential magnetic field between poles
Articulated double-joint legs: Adjustable from ~25 mm to 250 mm span for varied part geometries
Durable, sealed design: Resistant to chemicals and abrasion, ideal for outdoor and industrial settings
Ergonomic single-handed use: Lightweight and balanced for efficient inspector handling
Demagnetizing capability: Built-in feature for field demag after inspection
Serial numbered: Each unit uniquely serialized for traceability
ASTM-compliant lifting: Meets or exceeds ASTM magnetic lifting requirements

Applications

Ideal for:

Field and in-service MPI on welds, flanges, shafts, and castings
Spot inspections in hard-to-reach areas or on large, heavy components
Detection of fatigue, grinding, quenching cracks, seams, shrink cracks, and tears
