Testing & Measurement Products

Onda makes a variety of hydrophones including membrane hydrophones, needle hydrophones, HGL series hydrophones and many other custom types. The HGL hydrophone is one of a new series of hydrophones developed to meet or exceed the new recommendations set forth in section 3.3.2 of the AIUM Acoustic Output Measurement Standard release 10 as modified by the Technical Standards Committee by the June 3, 1997 letter, as they apply to ultrasound measurements for measurements to be submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration. Hydrophone Tutorial.

Now you can see how your transducer performs in real time 3D with clear phantom gels! The complexity of testing HIFU devices in animal tissue can be significantly reduced by using our proprietary recording gels. The thermal effect from high energy ultrasound is visually recorded as white, 3D lesions. Potential applications include R&D, Manufacturing, transducer performance evaluation, protocol development and training personnel.

The RFB-2000 Radiation FOrce Balance was designed to address the need for Acoustic Power reasurements in the medical device range without expensive maintenance or complex correction factors. Ease of use and reliable performance facilitate the validation of Acoustic Output Power measurements as recommended by AIUM-Nema document UD-2.

The acoustic intensity measurement system is designed to make measurements of a variety of ultrasound systems, generally in (but not restricted to) the 500kHz to 15MHz range. Scans can be done in one or two spatial dimensions, and can be used to determine spatial characteristics of an ultrasound beam, to measure total ultrasound power, or to calibrate a hydrophone.

The OptiSon® Beam Analyzer visualizes acoustic beam patterns using the principles of optical diffraction. Unlike hydrophone based scanning systems, Optison System does not disturb the acoustic path, thus eliminating problems associated with standing waves. This enables the detection and inspection of differences in transducer performance due to changes in material and design, such as the matching layers-all in real time.

The NTR Water Conditioner is a complete system designed for use with ultrasound scanning tank systems. It provides microprocessor-controlled heating, de-gassing, filtration and de-ionization functions depending on the user's requirements. The system is housed in a standard 19" rack cabinet and can be used independently or can be controlled through a PC's serial port.
