Measures metal thickness to determine wastage or corrosion accurately, quickly and without removing protective coatings.
Description
With its bright, very large, AMOLED display the Cygnus DIVE is simple to operate, providing accurate and reliable thickness measurements. Depth rated to 300 metres.
Available with data logging, topside, HelmetView™ and twin crystal probe options.
MSI™ Measurement Stability Indicator - this is a feature exclusive to the Cygnus. When using the DIVE Gage in Single Echo mode, MSI™ confirms when a reading is stable by turning the thickness measurement numbers from red to yellow.
Manufactured in the UK, Cygnus DIVE is designed for the professional diver.
The Cygnus DIVE is a wrist-mountable, simple to operate, robust underwater ultrasonic thickness gauge which provides an invaluable free hand while performing remaining metal thickness measurements. The Cygnus pioneered Multiple Echo technique is the heart of the electronics and ensures protective coatings up to 20 mm (0.787") thick are completely ignored, there is no need to remove protective coatings. Additionally, all measurements are automatically checked and verified by the Multiple Echo technique electronics.
The large, bright color AMOLED display is easily viewable by both the diver and his camera even in the poorest visibility and the operation of the gauge couldn’t be simpler, only two buttons for easy navigation of the intuitive, clear menus.
The completely new feature of the DIVE is the added flexibility of single echo mode where twin crystal probes can be used. This feature is useful for some specific situations including on; uncoated surfaces that have extreme front face and back wall corrosion and anchor chain links.

Benefits
Benefits of Cygnus Multiple Echo
Measures remaining metal thickness of corroded and coated structures
All measurements are error checked using 3 return echoes to give repeatable, reliable results
Accepted by all major classification societies
Greatly reduces inspection time and costs
Echo strength indicator to aid measurement.
With multiple echo, readings are taken by measuring the time delay between any three consecutive backwall echoes. The time of T1 (coating thickness) is ignored. The times of T2 and T3 are equal to the time that it takes to travel through the metal. Only by looking at three echoes can the measurements be automatically verified (where T2 = T3).
Key Features
Wrist-mountable giving the diver a free hand
Large, bright color AMOLED display, highly viewable by diver and camera in poor visibility
A-Scan display to assist with measurement verification
Auto-Log Data Logging - option, no log button to press - stores up to 5,000 measurements with A-Scans
Multiple Echo means no need to remove protective coatings up to 20 mm (0.787") thick
Error-checked Multiple Echo measurements to ensure genuine, verified measurements are displayed
Deep Coat mode to measure through coatings up to 20 mm (0.787") thick
Single Echo mode with Twin Crystal probes
Probes are connected to the DIVE with a coiled double jacket cable which will extend up to 1 meter (3 ft)
Pressure tested to 300 meters (1,000 ft)
Rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery giving up to 11 hours continuous operation.

Adds data logging capability to the gauge. Supplied with CygLink v4 software for data transfer. Measurements can be recorded in either a linear or grid format. Up to 5,000 measurements and A-Scans can be stored. The "Auto-Log” feature saves each stable measurement meaning the diver doesn't have to press a button every time a readings needs to be logged. Supplied with CygLink version 4 software.
CygLink v4 Software
CygLink v4 is a Windows® application and has two functions:
It is used to transfer information from a data logging gauge to a computer. This can then be used to create reports, analyzed, stored and exported.
As part of the CygLink Surface Display and Control Kit it can be used to provide a top side view of the survey. An umbilical cable is required to connect the gauge to the computer. This also allows the gauge set-up to be controlled from the surface, including logging readings during the survey.
Information displayed by CygLink includes; measurements, A-Scans, battery level, velocity of sound, measurement units, Deep Coat status and operating mode
Once the survey results are in CygLink there is a range of different ways to view the data. This includes; linear, grid, color 2D and 3D representations. The data can be exported to a spreadsheet program e.g. Excel.
The Ghost Overlay offers the option to pause an A-Scan that can be used as a reference trace.
Measurements can be made on an A-Scan using two cursors
Topside Repeater Remote Display Kit
The Cygnus Top Side Repeater is a remote display unit connected to the DIVE gauge with an umbilical cable. It displays the thickness measurements at the surface in real-time during the survey.
Topside Repeater with Video Overlay
The Top Side Repeater can also overlay the real-time thickness measurement on to a composite video signal, displaying it on the monitor screen / video recording of the survey.
Umbilical cables can be supplied made to custom lengths up to 500 meters (1,640 ft).
Measurements superimposed on to a composite PAL or NTSC video signal
Overlay can be re-positioned anywhere on the screen
Measurements and locations recorded on the survey video.
