The Power of Flexibility!
Pipe elbows are susceptible to damage, such as from flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC), but inspecting them is challenging since their shape changes from convex to concave, and there are many possible pipe diameters. The FlexoFORM™ solution integrates flexible phased array probe technology in a scanner to solve these challenges. This solution can be used to collect easy-to-interpret data on elbows with diameters ranging from 4.5 in. OD up to flat and offers many benefits, including:
– 100% elbow coverage
– Intuitive 2D C-scan imaging
– High-resolution data (1 mm × 1 mm)
– Fast elbow wall thickness measurement
– Constant coupling maintained by water-column system
