Abstract
An ultrasonic sensor for testing tubes of a heat exchanger having a U-shaped tube bundle includes a probe head unit having an ultrasonic vibrator and two opposite ends. Two flexible hollow shafts are each connected to a respective one of the ends of the probe head unit. One of the hollow shafts is rotatably supported in a guide tip and the other of the hollow shafts is rotatably supported in a cylindrical sheath. An electric drive unit is connected to and fixed against torque relative to the other hollow shaft. The flexible hollow shafts have supports at predetermined axial intervals. A sealing body is connected to the cylindrical sheath for sealing off a flow of a fluid for coupling the ultrasonic vibrator and a pusher hose is also connected to the cylindrical sheath.
