Tubes & bars inline inspection (phased array)

Application example

ERW tubes inspection

Probes

Sector circular array probes

Technique

Electronic sector scanning
Pulse echo technique
Typical use in immersion, possible use in contact with appropriate delay line

Benefits

Electroacoustic performances: very high sensitivity and short pulse
Homogeneity of the performances over the elements of a probe and over the probes
Reliability in industrial using conditions including long term immersion

Full body inspection

Probes

360° phased array probe for full body inspection
Axial, radial or angled emission direction
Centre frequency from 4 MHz to 15 MHz
Free number of elements

Technique

360° electronic scanning
Pulse echo immersion technique
