Our EHC-09 series is our most popular series. The EHC-09 is available in 6 models ranging from our most basic EHC-09A to our loaded EHC-09DLW. See options tab for more details and individual software options.
EHC-09A
The EHC-09A is our entry level, field upgradeable gage in our EHC-09 series. It can be used with three transducers. The standard and default transducer is our DKS-537 which measures from .040-20” in steel the DC-250 is the preferred probe for more attenuating materials such as castings and the DK-718 for thinner (.030” in steel) or smaller diameter applications such as boiler tubes. Our EHC-09 series gages come standard with a carrying case, 2oz bottle of couplant, DKS-537 transducer. (shown right: Standard kit inclusions. Test block and batteries sold separately)

EHC-09
The EHC-09 includes all the features of the EHC-09B model. The EHC-09 also includes echo to echo to ignore coatings, vibrate on alarm, and fast minimum. Vibrate on alarm informs the user when a thickness is above or below a preset threshold by causing the gage to vibrate, making it ideal for loud working environments. Fast Minimum can make 20 readings per second as well as hold on to the minimum reading while simultaneously displaying the actual reading, gain adjust in low, standard and high in 3dB settings, velocity mode to use the gage as a velocimeter as well as hold and differential modes.

EHC-09 Software Options are easy and convenient to upgrade in the field. Danatronics gage upgrades are done directly from your gage's keypad and do not require the use of a computer.
The following are available upgrades for the EHC-09 Monochrome Series
The following are available upgrades for the EHC-09 Monochrome Series
Echo to Echo to ignore Coatings
Comes Standard on EHC-09, EHC-09W, EHC-09DL and EHC-09DLW gages
This option allows for the coating or paint thickness to be ignored. The coating thickness or paint does not add any structural integrity to the base material. Without the ability to subtract the paint, the normal measurement would introduce an error of 2 to 2.5 times the thickness of the paint, which represents the sound speed difference from Paint to Steel. In addition it is expensive and time consuming to grind out the coating thickness and to re-apply a coating.

B-Scan
Comes standard on the EHC-09DL and EHC-09DLW
This option is only available combined with the Datalogger option. Provides a non-encoded (time base) or a cross section (side view) of the part being inspected. The image above shows the side view of a step block. The operator can scroll where the cursor line is after a B-scan is generated to get the thickness value as that point (.100”) shown above.

Datalogger
Comes standard with the EHC-09DL and EHC-09DLW
The EHC-09 Datalogger stores up to 100,000 readings in its internal Datalogger as linear, 2D, 3D, or boiler in alphanumeric or 2600 waveforms (if gage is equipped with waveform option). Thickness values along with the i.d. information and all gage set up parameters are exported to Microsoft excel via the no-charged, Data XL interface program available on our website. Our Datalogger also interfaces with Ultrapipe.

Live Waveform
Comes standard with the EHC-09W and EHC-09DLW
The live waveform (A-scan) is used to verify reading stability. With the live waveform the operator can adjust gain, range, rectification and 2 forms of blanking to set the gage to ignore unwanted noise or mode converted echoes.
