| TesTex provides pipeline scanning
services for piping that is above ground
and uninsulated. The piping can be painted
or have a coating and still be scanned.
For this service, we use the TesTex PS-2000
Pipe Scanning System based on the principles
of the TesTex proprietary Low Frequency
Electromagnetic Technique (LFET). The LFET
technology allows TesTex to rapidly scan
areas of piping to achieve greater than
90% coverage. The PS-2000 can be used as
a quantitative tool, or as a rapid screening
tool. In the screening mode, we use A-Scan
Ultrasonics to prove-up any flaw indications.
This technology is applicable to magnetic
and non-magnetic piping. Cast Iron or other
cast materials can also be tested. |
| In Nuclear Power Plants, piping
such as Service Water Systems and Fire Protection
Systems can be scanned to detect and quantify
MIC (microbiologically induced corrosion)
Attack and even FAC (Flow Accelerated Corrosion). |
| In coal burning Fossil Power
Plants, coal mill piping can be rapidly
scanned for ID erosion from pulverized coal. |
| For short-run underground
piping, TesTex can provide inspection services
by gaining access to the pipe ID. Then we
can employ the TesTex Remote Field Electromagnetic
Technique. |
