Techcorr provides qualified certified experienced inspectors with technicians to perform magnetic flux extrusion on the tank floor.
Tank floor inspection.
These obviously include material and contracting costs but a major factor will be the time and cost of cleaning the tank and preparing it for work.
Api 653 requires tank floors to be inspected while the tank is out of service.
An inspection technique that detects volumetric changes mfl testing is facilitated by tank floor mapping utilizing today s latest computerized equipment.
Theoretically magnets or electromagnetic energy is impregnated into the tank floor through the tank floor scanner.
The cleaner the floor the better the inspection.
Utilizing a patented combination of non destructive examination nde sensors housed within an explosion proof enclosure stingray inspection.
The larger the corrosion the larger the leakage field.
Storage tank surface condition.
Comprehensive storage tank floor inspection services are provided by diakont using a robotic crawler dubbed the stingray which can be safely deployed while the tanks remain filled and operational.
With mfl a strong magnet induces a magnetic field in the material.
Proper inspection protocol visual inspection of welds plates and appurtenances ut ultra sonic thickness testing of shell courses floor and roof vacuum testing of all floor weld seams unless epoxy coated identify bottom side corrosion on floors settlement survey checking for planar tilt check for floor bulges or depressions provide calculations for safe or maximum.
