The ChainSCANNER facilitates the manual inspection of pipes with outside diameters of 45 mm to 965 mm (1.75 in. to 38 in.), offering the possibility for two-axis encoding. The scanner, which is held by chain links instead of magnetic wheels, is able to inspect ferromagnetic or nonferromagnetic surfaces. The chain links also help ensure a straight displacement of the scanner by eliminating steering problems. Finally, it is useful when the area around the pipe is difficult to access as the scanner can be rotated around the pipe using the chain links.
Ứng dụng chính/Main applications:
- Circumferential-pipe weld inspections with phased array, TOFD, or conventional UT
- Corrosion mapping of small areas with phased array or conventional UT (using XY; 2 encoder models)
Tính năng/Features
- Standard configuration using one or two probes and optional configuration using four probes for TOFD, phased array, or pulse-echo inspections.
- Pipe range with outside diameters from 45 mm to 965 mm (1.75 in. to 38 in.)
- Encoded manual scan on one or two axis (depend on the model)
- Ergonomic handle to protect encoder connectors and provide cable management
- Independent chain links mounted on bearings wheels coated with urethane for smooth rolling
- Easy clamping device for quick scanner positioning
- Spring-loaded probe holders ensuring good probe contact in any scanner position or orientation
- The majority of adjustments can be made without the use of tools
- Compatible with the OmniScan®, the TomoScan FOCUS LT™ (with optional adaptor), and other instruments using the appropriate encoder cable
