3D UT Wall Thickness Profiling

SMS provides sand monitoring using best in class, field proven technology. After extensive
testing of the profiling systems, we identified the instrumentation to give our clients the edge
they require.
System Overview
The scanner continuously records UT wall thickness measurements as the scanning head is moved over the
inspection surface. Using these readings, we can then produce the 3D profile showing the complete wall loss of
the inspected area of pipe.

Features
3D Image Profiling
• Profile of erosion and corrosion high-risk areas

100% Coverage of Pipe


• Complete 360-degree coverage – no areas missed

Maintenance Optimisation
• Optimisation of maintenance to model component lift
expectance

Non-Intrusive
• External scans can cover all pipework and vessels

Compact & Handheld Unit


• Lightweight and mobile unit to aid application

Benefits
Increased Safety
• Higher probability of detection than conventional single
point UT thickness gauging

Reduced Costs
• Provides early identification of areas of concern

Repeatable and Reliable


• Repeatable method of tracking wall loss

Comparative Results
• 3D mapping allows detailed comparative analysis over
time
