Weighing only 2.12 pounds (0.96 kilograms), the new EPOCH LTC digital ultrasonic flaw detector is now the smallest in the Olympus NDT line of EPOCH flaw detectors. The rugged EPOCH LTC is built for use in a range of weather conditions and difficult inspection environments. Its sealed case meets IP67 requirements to withstand the rigors of very wet or dusty environments while the multi-color transflective LCD with full VGA resolution provides superior readability from sun light to complete darkness. The unit also features a simple keypad that allows full control from the left or right hand.
