Products & developments Integrated automated phased-array UT solution Eddyfi Technologies has launched RMS PA, a new corrosion mapping solution that delivers high-resolution imaging without speed compromise. RMS PA is a complete system aimed at improving data quality while reducing inspection times for non-intrusive inspections (NII) of critical assets. The high-speed, remote-access phased-array UT inspection solution is the result of the integration of products from two brands, providing inspection companies and asset owners with a reliable system that delivers optimal corrosion data. RMS PA integrates the robust field RMS robotic scanning head, a product from the Silverwing brand that has been successfully deployed on assets such as pressure vessels, pipelines, storage tanks and other critical structures in harsh environments including oil and gas, offshore and mining. In the new configuration, it combines RMS with the portable M2M phased-array systems – Mantis™ or Gekko ® . The user interface of the Capture™ software driving the M2M instruments is developed to simplify the inspector’s workflow. Inspection setup is quick and easy, with the RMS scanning heads being preconfigured within the system. The RMS controls are embedded and function seamlessly with the software, streamlining the overall inspection. The detection capabilities include corrosion, erosion and microbial induced corrosion (MIC), with quantifiable, detailed defect characterisation. Stuart Kenny, general manager of the Silverwing brand at Eddyfi Technologies, commented, “Adding phased array to the RMS brings major benefits to its users, with a scanning speed up to ten times faster than conventional systems at a 1mm resolution. There is no longer a need to sacrifice resolution for productivity. In addition to phased-array ultrasonics, having the ability to supplement non-intrusive inspection (NII) campaigns with real-time TFM imaging is a game changer within the industry. We are confident that the RMS PA will not only improve the data from NII inspections but will also reduce the inspection time and save money by shortening the timeline from inspection to report.” Current M2M Mantis/Gekko users can add automated corrosion mapping of assets ranging from 152mm (6") to flat plate to their inspection capabilities, while RMS owners can add phased-array capabilities to their existing scanners. The new RMS PA complete solution also features a detachable handheld manual scanner for the inspection of smaller areas and assets ranging from 101mm (4") to flat plate, allowing for improved manual corrosion mapping with M2M instruments.
