Overview
The HXC55yn Online Sensor Head is a terahertz transceiver head for the T-Ray® 5000 terahertz system, designed to operate in industrial environments. It acquires reflection measurements of thickness, multi-layer thickness and basis weight. A range of lenses is available to adjust the measurement spot size and working distance.
The transmitter and receiver are mounted inside a sealed metal housing. The transceiver umbilical carries the electrical and optical connections and is built with high flex rated electrical cable to support continuous scanning.
When connected to a T-Ray® 5000 Control Unit, the HXC55yn provides waveform response suitable for detailed reflection measurement of layered surfaces.
Model numbering
The "y" and "n" in the model number denote the lens focal length and the terahertz transmitter type, respectively. "y" = 4 for a 75 mm lens and 5 for a 150 mm lens; "n" = 1 for a Type 1 transmitter and 2 for a Type 2 transmitter.
