Sonomatic performs a wide array of non-destructive tests on non-metallic materials such as fiberglass and polyethylene piping. These materials are used for gas, water, fracking, and additional areas where conventional testing techniques are inadequate. Featuring a frequency range of 85 MHz to 14 GHz and a measurement speed of 200 µs, the performance of Copper Mountain Technologies’ R140 1-Port VNA, coupled with its small size, make it the perfect instrument to address Sonomatic’s unique needs. Most notably, they determine the proficiency of critical welds on large sections of plastic pipe that are used to transfer contaminated water. Sonomatic has made complex tasks like this one more manageable with the use of the R140 network analyzer.
