The Cygnus 2 Plus Hands Free is a simple to use, multi-mode thickness gauge having Multiple-Echo, Echo-Echo and Single-Echo capabilities. The multi-functional end mounted display makes it ideally suited for climbing and rope access. The twin shot injection moulded enclosure has a soft but durable TPE outer skin which is comfortable to hold and protects against bumps while the hard internal shell offers maximum strength and environmental protection certified to the demanding US MIL STD 810G standard.

Perfect for use on flat plate, curved surfaces or pipes our Multiple-Echo single crystal probe technology means you can measure through thick coatings and only the remaining metal thickness is displayed. The unit still relies on Multiple-Echo to provide simple and accurate measurements, with the added benefit of Echo-Echo and Single-Echo using twin crystal probes for extreme corrosion.  Echo-Echo for measurements on painted metals but with heavy back wall corrosion, pitting and Single-Echo for measurements on uncoated surfaces with heavy front face and/or back-wall corrosion and extenuative materials such as cast metals or plastics, composites.

The Cygnus 2 Hands-Free ultrasonic thickness gauge is purpose-built for challenging inspection scenarios where mobility and safety are critical. It is widely applied in structural integrity inspections via rope access or climbing, allowing technicians to operate the device without compromising stability or precision. Its advanced capabilities make it ideal for assessing heavily corroded metals, including those with front and back wall pitting, ensuring accurate readings even in degraded conditions. The gauge performs reliably on irregular geometric shapes and attenuative materials, where conventional devices may struggle. Additionally, it is a trusted tool for ship surveys, supporting efficient hull and structural assessments in demanding maritime environments.

  • Multiple-Echo for reliable, accurate through coating measurements as specified by Classification Societies.
  • Single-Echo and Echo-Echo measuring modes with twin crystal probes for extreme corrosion and back wall pitting.
  • MSI (Measurement Stability Indicator) used in Single-Echo and Echo-Echo measurement modes.
  • Hands free operation: wrist, waist belt and harness mountable.
  • OLED multi-functional rotatable display for all lighting conditions.
