Magneto Optic
Imager Device
• Magneto-optic sensor images the
perturbations in the magnetic field on a video
display
• MOI 308 (1.5-200kHz) with 303 and 307
imager; rotating MOI (circular mag. field)
• Applications corrosion, surface and subsurface Standard MOI
fatigue crack detections (transport to GA High Power
categories) in commercial and military
• Turbo MOI (prototype) - higher power and 0.200” 2nd layer crack
better eddy-current excitation for improved
depth of penetration
