Magnaflux Y-7 - AC/DC Yoke

Magnaflux Y-7 MV Kit comes complete with a Y-7 yoke, #1 Gray and #8A Red magnetic powders, a paint marker and shop cloth in a convenient carrying case.

The Magnaflux Y-7 is a durable, high-strength AC/DC magnetic yoke designed to detect surface and sub-surface indications in the most rugged applications.

Featuring sealed chemical-resistant construction, articulating legs to contour to any part shape and robust strain-relieved twelve-foot cord for field use, the Magnaflux Y-7 is ideal for inspection of welds and other remote testing.

Solid-state controls allow the operator to use AC magnetic fields for surface indications or DC magnetic fields for sub-surface indications to meet all inspection needs.

OPERATION

1. Connect yoke to power supply / battery pack.

2. Y-7 Model Only: Select AC or DC operating mode using switch on back of yoke. WARNING: Do not operate selector switch while yoke is energized.

3. Position yoke legs at right angles to the direction of suspected discontinuities. Adjust legs as needed for best contact with surface.

4. Depress trigger to energize yoke. Apply magnetic particles to area between legs.

a. If using dry powder, blow off excess while yoke is energized to reveal indications.

b. If using fluorescent particles, view surface with UV-A in darkened environment to reveal indications.

5. Evaluate indications for size, shape, and relevant location.

6. Reposition yoke legs at 90-degrees to previous position and repeat steps 4-5 to reveal indications in all directions.

7. Y-6 and Y-7 Models Only: Demagnetize by energizing yoke then slowly withdrawing it from the surface, up to 18 in / 45 cm distance. NOTE: For Y-7 model only, use AC mode for demagnetization.
