Measurements Made Easy
HotSenseTM ultrasonic transducers with a range of data collection methods available through Ionix Advanced Technologies.
- Monitor wall thickness in-service across a wide temperature range -55 to +380 °C
- Detect wall loss to 0.010 mm (0.004”) Complement inspection and improve repeatability & accuracy with fixed transducers installed directly on to assets
- Support asset integrity and corrosion management programs (including RBI, FFS & FEA)
- Reduce costs with replacement of intrusive methods and reduced scaffolding / insulation removal
- Increased safety with reduced exposure and man-hours at asset
Systems Integration
Integration into your system
Ionix HotSense™ transducers can be integrated into your current inspection system to enhance your monitoring and measurement capabilities and services.
Transducer Capabilities
Ionix HotSense™ transducers operate like any other ultrasonic non-destructive testing (NDT) transducer and can be utilised in either pitch-catch or pulse-echo mode. They can be powered with voltages from as low as 1V up to 200V on a 50 Ω impedance circuit.
This makes Ionix HotSense™ transducers compatible with most industry standard meters and with your proprietary monitoring systems. A high signal to noise ratio and consistent and repeatable waveform allows for simple automatic measurement and interpretation by your algorithms.
Deployment
Ionix has solved the challenge of permanent coupling at high temperature and is able to supply a range of off the shelf advanced deployment options to allow attachment and coupling of the transducers to your pipe or asset. These included various clamping and welding methods. Detailed procedures are provided to cover pipe preparation, attachment and coupling stages.
Setup
Ionix HotSense™ transducers are designed for use with all standard ultrasonic non-destructive testing (NDT) industry hardware. Ionix can support the integration of HotSense™ transducers with your system in both condition monitoring and advanced NDT inspection operations. Ionix offer advice on corrosion monitoring methods.
