Non-Destructive Testing
Eddy Current Testing (ET)Level 3
Eddy current testing reveals surface and near-surface defects in conductive materials, providing rapid inspection.
✓ Accredited by E.SY.D. — Cert. No. 134 for Testing
Applications
- All types of conductive ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic tubular products
- Welds and plates in electrically conductive materials
- Coating thickness measurement (conductive and non-conductive) on metallic substrates
- Crack depth determination and corrosion detection
Case studies & field applications
Heat exchanger inspection with specialized eddy current probes
Rapid inspection of heat-exchanger tube bundles for cracks, corrosion and wall-thickness loss, without dismantling the bundle.
Initial inspection requires specific probe selection based on tube type, diameter, and wall thickness specifications.
