Tube Inspection Services that ITIS can provide
Eddy Current Testing
Eddy Current Testing (ECT) is ideal for inspecting non-ferrous alloy tubes quickly and accurately. It detects issues like corrosion, erosion, pitting, wall loss, and cracks in tubes up to 3⅛ in. (79.4 mm) OD and 0.017–0.120 in. (0.432–3.04 mm) wall thickness. Common applications include condensers, feed water heaters, heat exchangers, and air conditioners.
Internal Rotatory Inspection System
Ultrasonic IRIS inspects ferrous, nonferrous, and nonmetallic tubes, detecting wall loss from corrosion, erosion, pitting, and more. It’s often used to verify results from other NDT methods like RFT, MFL, and ECT. Common uses include boilers, feed water heaters, air coolers, and heat exchangers.
Magnetic Flux Leakage Testing
Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) quickly detects wall loss, pitting, grooving, and cracks, and works well on finned carbon steel tubes. It suits tube sizes from ½ to 24 in. OD and up to ½ in. wall thickness. Applications include fin fan coolers, feed water heaters, and carbon steel heat exchangers.
Remote Field Testing
Remote Field Testing (RFT) effectively inspects ferromagnetic tubes like carbon steel for defects such as corrosion, erosion, and wear. It suits tubes from 0.5 to 2 in. OD and 0.028 to 0.134 in. wall thickness. Common uses include boilers, feed water heaters, and carbon steel heat exchangers.
