1. Introduction to Electro Magnetic Acoustic Transducer (EMAT)

EMAT or Electro Magnetic Acoustic Transducer is an Ultrasonic Testing (UT) technique that generates the
sound in the part inspected instead of the transducer.

An EMAT induces ultrasonic waves into a test object with two interacting magnetic fields. A relatively high
frequency (RF) field generated by electrical coils interacts with a low frequency or static field generated by
magnets to generate a Lorentz force in a manner similar to an electric motor. This disturbance is
transferred to the lattice of the material, producing an elastic wave. In a reciprocal process, the interaction
of elastic waves in the presence of a magnetic field induces currents in the receiving EMAT coil circuit. For
ferromagnetic conductors, magnetostriction produces additional stresses that enhance the signals to much
higher levels than could be obtained by the Lorentz force alone. Various types of waves can be generated
using different combinations of RF Coils and Magnets.

Because the sound is generated in the part inspected instead of the transducer, EMATs have the following
advantages over more conventional piezoelectric transducers:

- Dry inspection. EMATs do not require couplant for transmitting sound, which makes them very well
suited for inspection of hot parts, and integration in automated environments.
- Impervious to surface conditions. EMATs can inspect through coatings and are not affected by
pollutants, oxidation or roughness.
- Easier probe deployment. Not having wedges or couplant, Snells law of refraction does not apply,
and the angle of the probe does not affect the direction of propagation. This makes them easier to
control and deploy, especially in automated environments.
- Ability to generate unique wave modes. EMATs are the only practical means for generating shear
waves with horizontal polarization (SH waves), which do not travel through low-density couplants.
The ability to easily produce Guided SH waves and lamb waves make EMAT ideal for generation of
guided waves, used in the inspection of plates, tubes and rounds.

1.1. Wave Modes

EMAT is capable of generating all wave modes used in ultrasonic testing, including some modes that are
very difficult or impractical with conventional piezoelectric transducers.

The applications covered in this Catalog include:

- Bulk, Normal Beam (zero degree incident angle) with Shear Horizontal and Longitudinal Waves.
- Bulk, Angled Beam Single Channel and Phased Array
- Guided Wave, Surface and Volumetric

2. Applications

2.1. Normal (zero degree) Beam

Characteristics
- Direction of Propagation: Perpendicular to the entry wall.
- Sensor Configuration: Pulse-echo (transmitter = receiver) or pitch-
catch (transmitter receiver)
- Wave modes: Shear Horizontal and Longitudinal waves in
frequencies ranging from 500 KHz to 10MHz. Whereas EMAT can
generate both Shear and Longitudinal waves at 0 degrees, Shear
(Horizontal) waves are easier to generate.
- Materials Inspected: Ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic metals.

Applications
- Thickness measurement.
- Corrosion and erosion measurement.
- Flaw detection, such as, inclusions, de-laminations and disbond.
- Acoustic velocity measurement.
- Rolling direction recognition.
- Anisotropy and stress measurement.
- Nodularity measurement.
- Bolt-Load measurement.
- Spot-Weld inspection.

EMAT Uniqueness
- Dry and non-contact. Practical working distance from the coil to the part (lift-off) is usually between
0-3mm. Greater lift-off can be achieved (up to 12mm in laboratory settings), depending on material,
equipment and type of inspection. Ideal for automated and hot environments.
- Not affected by surface conditions (coatings, oil, oxide).
- Maintains readings even when the probe face is not parallel to the part. The only restriction in
coil/sensor angle is that derived from the loss of signal due to lift-off, so depending on the
application the coil/sensor can be angled as much as 30 from the part and still obtain good signals.
- Capable of generating Shear wave energy (Shear Horizontal). Shear waves have approximately
half the velocity of Longitudinal waves providing better time resolution (especially important for
defects next to walls). Shear waves are also is capable of detecting defects perfectly perpendicular
to the direction of sound.
- Ability to select the direction of polarization when using Racetrack or Butterfly style coils (see RF
Coil section).
- Because EMAT by definition cannot use a delay line (or water column), there is a dead zone of
approximately 4s (equivalent to around 6mm of material). This dead zone can be circumvented
when parallel walls are present by relying on the 2
nd
bounce from the wall to perform the inspection.

3. Angled Beam and Phased Array

Characteristics
- Direction of Propagation: At an angle from the entry wall.
- Sensor Configuration: Pulse-echo or pitch-catch, including Phased
Array
- Wave modes: Shear Horizontal and Shear Vertical at angles from
10 to 80 in frequencies ranging from 500KHz to 10MHz.

Applications
- Flaw detection, including weld inspection.
- Austenitic weld inspection in heavy walls (>0.5 - 13mm) using SH
waves.
- Detection of hydrogen damage and pitting.

EMAT Uniqueness
- Dry and non-contact (up to 2.5mm lift-off depending on application
and frequency). Ideal for automated and hot environments.
- Not affected by surface conditions (coatings, oil, oxide). Capable of
inspecting on severely pitted surfaces.
- While Angled Beam Shear Vertical energy is easy to generate using
refracting angles on piezoelectric transducers (PZT), Shear
Horizontal Angled Beams do not travel through low-density
couplants, so they are difficult to generate and excluded from
applications that require any scanning.
- The polarity of the energy (vertical Vs horizontal) is important since
shear waves do not mode convert when striking surfaces that are
parallel to the direction of polarization thus Shear Horizontal waves
are especially well suited for inspection of austenitic welds and other
materials with dendritic grain structures.
- Inspection at temperatures of up to 400F (200C).

4. Guided Waves

Characteristics
- Direction of Propagation: Parallel to the entry wall and within the
boundaries of the top and bottom walls. Limited to approximately
0.5 (12mm) plate thickness for internal flaw detection.
- Sensor Configuration: Pulse-echo or pitch-catch.
- Wave modes: Shear Horizontal at 90, Lamb waves and Rayleigh
waves in frequencies ranging from 50KHz to 10MHz.

Applications
- Weld inspection in thin plates (<0.5 or 13mm).
- Inspection of welds while welding. For example, inspection of the different layers on submerged
arc welds before all the layers have been deposited.
- Flaw detection in plates, tubes and rods.
- Material properties characterization (e.g. acoustic velocity measurement).

EMAT Uniqueness
- Dry and non-contact (up to 2.5mm lift-off depending on frequency and type of application). Ideal for
automated environments.
- Not affected by surface conditions (coatings, oil, oxide).
- Ability to normalize the signal for automatic and continuous self-calibration.
- Less sensitive to probe positioning. Especially well-suited for automated weld inspection.
- Ability to concentrate the energy on the outside boundaries or center of the material to be more or
less sensitive to surface or internal defects (e.g. to avoid or ignore root and crown in weld
inspection).

5. Equipment Configuration

The picture below shows a common configuration for EMAT equipment.

1. Instrumentation & Computer. The temate
PowerBox 1, 2 and 8 require an external computer.

2. Instrument to Signal Conditioning Box Cables. Connect the instrument to the Signal Conditioning
Box, and can be up to 150 (50m) in length.
3. Signal Conditioning Box. Provides RF coil and cable impedance matching, T/R switching and a first
stage of amplification. In some applications, Tuning Modules are also used to match the RF Coil at
a specific frequency. The Signal Conditioning Box is normally located 2-4 (60-120cm) from the
sensors.
4. Sensor Cables. Connect the probe and RF Coil to the Signal Conditioning Box and can be up to 4
(120cm) in length.
5. Probe*. Housing containing the magnet (permanent or electromagnet) and the hardware for
attaching the RF Coils (when detachable). Many probes manufactured by Innerspec Technologies
can incorporate various types of RF coils for different applications, whereas others have built-in RF
coils that cannot be easily exchanged.
6. Coils & Wear Surface. Detachable RF Coils and wear surfaces are listed as separate items in this
catalog.

- The combination of Probe + RF Coil is referred to as a Sensor in this catalog.

7. Standard Sensors & Accessories

The Standard Sensors included in this catalog in conjunction with temate
PowerBox instruments or
similar are designed to cover a great variety of EMAT inspections. Innerspec Technologies also offers
Application Specific instrumentation and sensors and custom designs. Contact Innerspec Technologies for
additional information on Sensors and Applications not covered in this Catalog.

The Standard Sensors are divided in two groups:

- Complete Sensors with attached RF Coil. Used on Phased Array and High-Temperature Normal Beam
applications.
- Sensor with detachable RF Coil (separate Probe and RF Coil). Used on ambient temperature Normal
Beam, Bulk Angled and all Guided Wave applications.

The Sensors in this Catalog are designed using floating-ground technology that provides optimum
performance and immunity to noise. These sensors require three pole connectors, and will not work with
standard coaxial cables. On the same token, the standard signal conditioning boxes will not work with non-
differential sensors built by other manufacturers. For best results, it is recommended to use sensors,
cables and signal conditioning boxes as a set from Innerspec Technologies. Contact Innerspec if you need
a custom sensor not available in this Catalog.

7.2.3. Detachable RF Coils

In addition to complete Sensors with embedded RF Coils, Innerspec Technologies offers a wide range of
freestanding RF Coils to mount on the Standard Probes. These RF coils offer the following advantages:

- Low cost means of having several EMAT Sensors at a fraction of the expense of embedded versions.
- Inexpensive and easy to replace if damaged.
- Flexible coil substrate adapt to the undulations of the material thus reducing lift-off and improving
signal-to-noise (especially important for guided waves).
- Different wear surfaces can be adapted for unique applications.

All flexible RF Coils in this catalog have a maximum operating
temperature of 200C (400F) without active cooling

The Part Number printed on each RF Coil shows its unique characteristics in 8 separate fields.

In order to select the appropriate Probe and RF Coil, please note:

- Larger Probes incorporate larger magnets that provide greater signal-to-noise but can be unwieldy and
difficult to move on ferromagnetic parts.
- As with piezoelectric transducers, larger RF Coils concentrate the energy deeper into the material so
they have worse near-field sensitivity. Each RF Coil is provided with 3dB plots relative to their point of
maximum sensitivity.
- Butterfly Coils provide a linearly polarized wave that is very effective for coverage and sensitivity in flaw
detection, but will provide different velocity (and thickness) readings on anisotropic materials depending
on the orientation of the probe.
- Spiral Coils are less affected by anisotropy thus they are easier to use for thickness measurement in
anisotropic materials. Flaw detection is limited by their design.
- Permanent Magnet L-Wave coils are only appropriate for non-magnetic materials. Consult Innerspec
Technologies for L-Wave generation in ferromagnetic materials.

7.2.3.3. Angled Beam and Guided Wave RF Coils

Angled Beam Bulk Waves and Guided Waves are generated using alternating magnetic fields created by
either a meander RF Coil or a set of periodic magnets on a racetrack or spiral RF coil. The table below
shows examples of Guided Wave magnet and RF Coil configurations.
Because of its mode-selection and non-contact characteristics, EMAT is by design very well suited to
efficiently generate all the Guided Wave modes included Rayleigh, Shear Horizontal and Lamb waves.

7.2.3.3.1. One-Channel SH Wave with Permanent Magnets (Angle Steering with Frequency)

Mainly used for inspection of austenitic materials. Steering is achieved by changing the frequency of the
instrument. Only used in pitch-catch configuration with two probes (identical).

7.2.3.4. Guided Wave Setup Process

Guided Waves have different motion distribution depending on the geometry and characteristics of the
material that guides the sound. The introduction of boundary conditions make guided wave problems
inherently more difficult than bulk waves. Unlike the finite number of modes present in a bulk wave
problem, there are generally an infinite number of modes associated with a given guided wave problem.
That is, a finite body can support an infinite number of different guided wave modes.

This Catalog provides an example of the steps required in designing a guided wave inspection, and the
Dispersion Curves in Steel Plate.

* Innerspec Technologies offers a comprehensive software package designed to provide dispersion curves
for plates, tubes and rods in different materials (see temate
GWAT in the Software section of this

Catalog). In addition to the dispersion curves, the software includes all the RF Coils available in this
Catalog and can reference the right RF Coil for a specific mode thus considerably simplifying the setup
process.

Setup Process:

a. Determine Thickness of Test Sample ( h ).
b. Select Appropriate Mode. The user will need to determine the desired mode to be excited based
on wave mode analysis, finite element analysis (FEA), or empirical evidence. Mode selection
depends on the type and geometry of defects, geometry of the part and other variables (e.g.
environmental conditions of the sample).
c. Go to Phase Velocity Dispersion Curve ( Cp Vs fh ) and Group Velocity dispersion curve ( Cg Vs
fh ) for that material and confirm the adequacy of the mode.
- The Phase Velocity curve shows the mode separation for a given frequency-thickness.
The more separate a mode is from others, the easier it will be to generate without
interferences.
- The Group Velocity curve determines how that mode will travel in time with other modes.
This is important to know when designing the experiment since modes of different speeds
could interfere with each other at the time when the reading is to be taken.
d. Determine the EMAT Coil to use. Using the information from the Phase Velocity Dispersion Curve,
calculate the targeted wavelength for the specific mode.

e. Select from the Catalog an RF Coil with a Period equal or close to the targeted wavelength.

f. Hardware Setup
The Dispersion Curves provided are NOT intended for:

- Other materials (other than steel)
- Anisotropic materials
- Multiple layered structures
- Tube, pipe, bar or other geometries
- Other wave modes

velocity can be easily derived from the tables.

Other Setup Tips:

a. The excitation is achieved with a tone burst signal of center frequency
0
f .
b. Number of cycles of the excitation signal can be changed depending on the inspection requirement.
- Time domain: More cycles result in longer pulse time which could affect resolution for Time-
Of-Flight calculations.
- Frequency domain: More cycles means narrower band and better mode selectivity.
- Amplitude: For non-dispersive and weak dispersive modes, more cycles typically result in
stronger signal. The peak amplitude of the signal will increase up to a point when
1 + =
R T t
N N N . Here
t
N ,
T
N , and
R
N are number of cycles in the excitation signal,
number of periods in the transmission coil, and the number of cycles in the receiving coil
respectively. For strongly dispersive modes, this rule is not applicable.
c. Time of expected signal package
- Estimate the distance of expected sound path l .
i. In through transmission, this is the distance between transmitter and receiver.
ii. In reflection, this is the distance of transmitter to reflector plus the distance of the
reflector to the receiver.
- Calculate the expected time of flight (TOF) of the signal:
l C t
g
=
0

- Set detection gate based on the expected TOF and/or its range.
d. For some steel products, the material property may vary from the standard property used in the
catalog. The test designer might need to change the test frequency around the theoretical value
0
f to optimize the test result.
e. A

Lamb wave modes converges to Rayleigh wave at high frequency. Therefore, the
Rayleigh surface wave velocity can also be read from the dispersion curves shown here.

10.4. Sensor & Probe Fixtures

Roller-Kit assemblies are recommended for scanning ferromagnetic parts with Permanent Magnet Probes,
and handles are used for spot checking through insulation inspection holes with our high-temperature
sensors. Lift-Assist devices are also available to be able to scan and dislodge Permanent Magnet probes
from a ferromagnetic part. The SH Sensor Positioning Fixture permits setting angles and distances to
facilitate setups in automated scanning.
