Phased Array (PAUT) Probes for Corrosion Detection
PAUT probes are widely used to detect corrosion in a variety of materials, including metal structures such as pipelines and tanks.
Accurate and reliable measurements
PAUT probe are able to create a cross- sectional image of the material being inspected. This allows for a more accurate assessment of the extent and location of corrosion. They can spot a wide range of corrosion types (pitting, wall loss, general corrosion) and also measure the depth of the corrosion, allowing for accurate and timely repairs.
Reduced downtime and maintenance costs
PAUT probes are highly efficient, as they can detect corrosion in a fraction of the time and cost of other inspection methods.
Measure corrosion in difficult-to-reach areas
PAUT probes are highly sensitive and can detect corrosion even in inaccessible areas. They can detect corrosion in the interior of a material, such as inside a pipe or tank, by emitting ultrasonic waves at a specific angle. And as the probe scans the material, it can detect any changes in the thickness of the material or any areas where the material has been corroded.
