Baffled No More: How RFA Technology Makes Ferromagnetic Tubing Inspections a Breeze
The Remote-Field Testing (RFT) method has been widely used for inspecting ferromagnetic tubing, particularly in shell and tube Heat Exchangers (HX) and boiler systems. While RFT has proven its utility, it falls short in specific scenarios, such as detecting and sizing defects near or beneath baffle plates. These areas are critical since defects located near support structures are often missed or misinterpreted due to inherent limitations of RFT to detect indications near interfering elements such as baffle plates. Eddyfi Technologies’ Remote-Field Array (RFA) probe was developed to produce high-resolution C-scan images that provide clearer visualization of defects for detection and sizing, especially in areas where RFT struggles. This blog post explores how RFA outperforms RFT in inspecting ferromagnetic tubing, particularly in detecting defects beneath or close to baffle plates and highlights specific examples showcasing the benefits of RFA.
Versatility Redefined with Configurable NDT Scanners for Every Inspection Challenge
In the world of NDT, where finding hidden flaws in critical assets is just another day at the office, you know the frustration of using tools that aren’t quite up to the challenge. Whether it’s corrosion hidden on a tricky vessel surface or welds embedded deep within complex structures, every inspector’s dream is a tool that’s adaptable, accurate, and—ideally—doesn’t add an extra headache to the job. Eddyfi Technologies’ configurable automated ultrasonic testing (AUT) scanners are built with exactly that in mind, giving you versatile solutions that make inspections faster, easier, and yes, even a little more satisfying.
Inspecting Aboveground Storage Tanks from Top to Bottom
Aboveground storage tank inspections are vital for operational safety, maintenance optimization, and environmental compliance, as mandated by standards like API 653. Eddyfi Technologies, a leader in non-destructive testing (NDT), provides cutting-edge tools and techniques for inspecting tanks from top to bottom and inside out. This blog explores these technologies, helping ensure your asset integrity doesn’t tank.
