Cygnus Mini ROV Mountable
Ultrasonic Thickness Tester
Key features of the Cygnus Mini ROV Mountable ultrasonic thickness tester include:
- Multiple-Echo for accurate through-coat measurements, as specified by Classification Societies
- Supplied with CygLink to display and process measurements on a computer at the surface
- Easy calibration at the surface via CygLink or Topside Repeater (TSR) unit
- Optional TSR unit allowing readings to be displayed remotely and superimposed onto ROV’s camera screen
- Optional purpose-built ROV probe handlers for optimal alignment.
Key benefits of the Cygnus pioneered Multiple-Echo technique include:
- Measures remaining metal thickness on corroded and coated structures
- All measurements are error checked using 3 return echoes to give repeatable, reliable results
- Accepted by all major classification societies
- Greatly reduces inspection time and costs
- Echo strength indicator to aid measurement.
CygLink Software
CygLink is a Windows® application that allows remote viewing, control and data logging of the Mini ROV IRM (inspection, repair and maintenance) tester. The software can generate survey reports in PDF or export to a CSV file. Designed for Windows® 7 and above.

To compliment Cygnus’ range of ultrasonic thickness testers we offer a range of portable UTM probes. The performance of any ultrasonic thickness tester relies heavily on the probe and its suitability to the material being tested. Therefore, selecting the right probe is vital.
All of Cygnus’ Single Crystal portable UTM probes are made from stainless steel and include replaceable membranes for long life, requiring no zeroing and have a high linear accuracy.
