CONVERTOR (TRANSDUCER)
Includes the electroplated housing, and black front driver (first stage of acoustic
amplification) with a ½ - 20 threaded hole for horn attachment. A separate high-frequency
cable is also furnished.
HORN (PROBE)
A 5" L x 1½" W resonant body that steps down to a ½” diameter probe tip. The horn serves
as the second stage of acoustic amplification. It includes a removable or solid tip, a ½ - 20
stud for attachment to the convertor and external threads around the body for attachment
of accessories (e.g. Flow Cells). The Horn is available in three standard tip diameters of
½”, ¾” or 1". In addition, each horn comes in three different tip configurations. Tapped
horns have a replaceable Flat Tip; Solid horns do not have a replaceable tip; and Sapphire
tipped horns have a 1/16" thick sapphire disk bonded to the tip of a solid horn.
REPLACEABLE FLAT TIPS
A ¼” thick, radiating surface attached to the end of the horn. The flat tips will erode with use
and are replaceable. The tips are matched to horns of equal diameter (i.e. ½”, ¾” or 1"
diameter).
