Phased Array (PAUT) Probes for Wall Thickness Measurement
A PAUT (Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing) probe can be used to detect wall thickness in a variety of materials, including metal structures such as pipelines and tanks.
Accurate detection of surface and subsurface flaws
PAUT probe can be used to detect thickness in the interior of a material, such as inside a pipe or tank. By emitting ultrasonic waves at a specific angle, the probe can penetrate through the material and detect any changes in the thickness on the inside.
Quicker and more accurate wall thickness measurements
A PAUT probe can provide a detailed, cross- sectional view of the material being inspected. This allows for a more accurate assessment of the thickness of the material, which can be used to plan repairs or maintenance.
Automated scanning to collect multiple data points
To detect thickness, the PAUT probe is typically moved along the surface of the material being inspected, with the probe scanning the surface in a grid pattern. As the probe scans the material, it can detect any changes in the thickness of the material.
