Zetec Latitude Encoding System
LATITUDE is a revolutionary non-mechanized position and orientation encoding system that enables the digitization and recording of manual nondestructive testing (NDT) inspections. Developed by Structural Integrity Associates, LATITUDE is designed for use with the TOPAZ family of portable phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) instruments.

Details
Latitude Control Unit – The LATITUDE electronic control unit is the brain of the system, responsible for collecting the airborn ultrasonic data, translating it into position information, and communicating with the NDE data acquisition system. It consists of a sealed fanless enclosure and is powered by two (2) hot-swappable batteries that provide ~10 hours of usage. The LATITUDE control unit can be attached to the rear of a PAUT instrument using a quick-release clip.
Receiver Array – The LATITUDE receiver array consists of a conformable self-aligning collar for use on flat and curved surfaces. Depending on the application, the collar can be wrapped around the pipe circumference, stretched along the pipe axis, or be otherwise placed on any flat or curving surface. All wiring is self-contained and there is a single connection point to the LATITUDE electronics.
Transmitter Attachment – The LATITUDE transmitter probe attachment contains multiple sensors for determining the axial (x-) position, circumferential (y-) position, and skew (rotation) of the fixture. It is typically affixed to an NDE sensor that is being used to conduct an examination, such as a PAUT probe, an eddy current testing (ECT) probe, or any of several other kinds of NDE sensors.
