| TesTex provides inspection
services for all types of tubular heat exchangers
including Air Cooler-Fin/Fans. We do this
work on scheduled outages as well as emergency
situations. Unlike most other NDT companies,
Heat Exchanger Inspection is one of TesTex’s
specialties. So when you call us with an
immediate need, you know you will get a
field service crew who is trained in tubing
inspections; when you contact other NDT
firms that do all NDT disciplines, and you
have an immediate need, you will usually
get someone who happens to be “available”
but does not have the proper training or
experience in Heat Exchanger Inspections
– however, they may be the best UT
technician in the world. When you have dozens
or even hundreds of Heat Exchangers to inspect,
rest assured knowing that TesTex can provide
over (40) Heat Exchanger Inspection teams
at any given time. |
| For carbon steel and other
magnetic metals, we use the TesTex Eagle
Plus Single and Multichannel Remote Field
Electromagnetic Technique (RFET) System. |
| For non-magnetic metals such
as Stainless Steels, Copper Nickels, Brass,
Titanium, etc. we use the TesTex TX 4200
Multifrequency/Multichannel Eddy Current
System. |
| Because TesTex manufactures
it’s own RFET and ECT equipment, we
are never short of the necessary test equipment
to handle your needs; this also means that
each of our inspection teams come prepared
with ample back-up/redundant equipment.
We also manufacture all of our own probes
and calibration standards. Therefore, we
can respond to emergency needs better than
any other Heat Exchanger Inspection company. |
| In addition to the inspections
listed above, we also provide IRIS Ultrasonic
Tube Inspections as a back-up or as the
primary technique. We also offer Video Borescoping
services. |
| Whether you have one heat
exchanger, or several hundred heat exchangers,
we are set up to support your inspection
needs. |
