The Western Instruments WC-6UW Compact Underwater Yoke is an AC Yoke designed for Underwater Magnetic Particle Inspection. The WC-6UW induces a magnetic field into the ferrous material being tested from an external power supply. This power supply can be either 115VAC (or 230VAC K Models) or 12VDC), but must be fully grounded and equipped with a GFI.
The Western Instruments WC-6UW Compact Underwater Yoke is manufactured for full submergence to 300 (91m), thus it is exposed to high static heads. To counteract this pressure, each lamination within the Iron Lamination Frame is sealed to prevent the ingress of water.
