VP-12-US Series
Versatile Port For Ultrasound Inspections
A standard and systematic approach to data collection is essential to establishing a repeatable and reproducible condition-based monitoring program that provides asset Reliability. VP-12-US standardizes the location and method for accessing consistent and quality acoustic data, regardless of the ultrasound technician’s experience or enclosure rating. Easily identify potential hazards and faults such as arcing, tracking and corona in electrical distribution systems and switchgear through the VP-12-US. NEMA rated enclosures require only access through the port where technicians can safely collect data on energized equipment in accordance with NFPA 70E safety mandates. The grill allows ultrasound but prevents objects from being pushed into the panel.
Arc Safety Tested
Successfully tested to the IEC 62271-200 standard for arc containment on metal enclosed switchgear assemblies to help protect workers from injury/fatality.
Durable and Rugged
Polymer based IR windows are far more able to resist the mechanical stresses applied to IR window that are fitted to electrical distribution equipment.
UL Listed
Having passed rigorous standards and testing, our inspection windows are UL Listed (E491496). This demonstrates our dedication to continued safety and security in the ever-changing world of electrical power.
Features
Tested and Certified
IRISS IR windows are the most certified windows in the industry with IEEE (impact & load), UL, cUL, Lloyds, CSA 22.2 14-13 for industrial control equipment.
Proudly Made in the United States
IRISS manufactures and assembles all products at our global headquarters located in Bradenton, FL.
Unconditional Lifetime Warranty
The IRISS Unconditional lifetime warranty is unique in the IR industry as it not only applies not only to the workmanship of the window housing but also applies to the durability and stability of the optic in the proposed environment.
