Measurement ultrasonic transducer BBID-DH series

Overview
The BBID-DH series offers downhole ultrasonic transducers in 64 kHz and 90 kHz center-frequency configurations for measurement during drilling, borehole-wall inspection and subsurface acoustic sensing. Each frequency presents distinct beam angles and electrical characteristics suitable for integration into drilling equipment.

Frequency and operating configurations
Center frequency | Half-power beam angle | Minimum impedance | Capacitance at 1 kHz | Peak operating voltage | Operating temperature | Pressure rating | Protection rating
64 kHz ±5% | 22° ±10% | 1,100 Ω ±20% | 1,200 pF ±20% | <2,250 Vpp | -40 to +80°C | ≤1 MPa | IP68
90 kHz ±5% | 17.1° ±10% | 180 Ω ±20% | 4,600 pF ±20% | <2,250 Vpp | -40 to +80°C | ≤1 MPa | IP68
