Active localised corrosion detection by AE of the stainless steel storage tanks

A technology for the active localised corrosion detection
by Acoustic Emission of the stainless steel storage tanks

Active localised corrosion detection by AE of the stainless steel storage tanks

 

 Non destructive - Non intrusive method

 

Applied in service, with a minimal "out of service" period

Requiring neither emptying, nor cleaning of the tank (special sensors are attached at the external tank wall)

 

Rapid (1 to 2 hours of test)

 

  Double diagnosis of the tank floor condition : Corrosion / Leaks

 

 

Based on CORPAC® technology, the CORPAC-TK® procedure allows an estimation of the local instantaneous corrosion speed and an earlier detection of the localised active corrosion.

 

CORPAC-TK® is also an excellent expertise tool for the causes identification of the localised corrosion.

Principle of corrosion detection by AE

 

 

The evaluation of the active corrosion level can be completed by a leak diagnosis (potential leak grades : 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5)

An algorithm determines the probable source positions and displays the location of the AE activity.

  CORPAC-TK® optimizes the efficiency of your maintenance program

 

A predictive and inexpensive solution, allowing :

 

The identification of the tanks in good condition for avoiding useless openings.

 
 

The definition of the priorities of the tanks inspection plan by a classification of their condition.

 
  A bigger flexibility of your maintenance program.
  A reduction of your operating losses.
