By addressing the specific challenges of wet, corrosive, and composition-variable gas environments, Cubic Instruments provides advanced ultrasonic flow monitoring solutions, BF-3000 and BF-3000B Biogas Flow Meters, that ensure measurement accuracy, operational stability, and long-term reliability across diverse renewable gas applications. ...
After inspections, the next most representative technique is corrosion rate monitoring. Corrosion rate monitoring uses probe elements or coupons of the same material as the asset in question, exposed to the same corrosive environment, to simulate the corrosion occurring on the structure. ...
Improvements in nondestructive testing technology and especially the software and processing power of off-the-shelf, portable phased array ultrasonic instruments mean that internal pipeline corrosion, while obviously serious, doesn’t have to be the hidden threat that it was even just a few years ...
UT can be used to inspect larger assets in two key ways: Corrosion Scanning: Scanning devices can detect corrosive anomalies and other indications, in addition to wall thinning stemming from corrosive substances. ...
With a surface array probe, inspectors can detect corrosion or cracking. When searching for a suitable surface array instrument, look for the following benefits: Touchscreen interfacing Stellar software Multi-coil probing The multi-coil feature is especially important due to the enhanced detection speed. When inspecting a tower, for ...
Phased array probes are divided by several characteristics, including: Probe Type. ...
High-end functionality is also important, including phased-array capabilities using 2D matrix probes. As corrosion detection is an essential function of ultrasonic testing, corrosion testing abilities are prized in ultrasonic testing equipment. ...
In large-scale industrial processes, the challenge is often to design the probe to withstand the often harsh environment of the often high temperature, dust-laden and corrosive flue gas. Careful selection of probe material and dust deflection/purging might be required to make the probe durable enough. ...

We have seen the same problem with automatic tank gauge (ATG) probes; corrosion build up in the riser pipe can make it impossible to remove the ATG floats. Consequently, the probes and STPs remain in the corrosive environment of the upper vapor space, either unable to be serviced, or in some cases, replaced with smaller diameter ...
