00:00:04,366 --> 00:00:06,233
In this video, we’ll show you

2
00:00:06,233 --> 00:00:08,600
two innovative solutions
for corrosion inspection

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,333
using the OmniScan® SX,

4
00:00:10,333 --> 00:00:12,066
Dual Linear Array™ Probes,

5
00:00:12,066 --> 00:00:15,266
and the HydroFORM® scanner.

6
00:00:15,266 --> 00:00:17,700
Our Dual Linear Array
corrosion probe

7
00:00:17,700 --> 00:00:19,133
is a phased array solution

8
00:00:19,133 --> 00:00:21,566
that improves productivity
and is the tool of choice

9
00:00:21,566 --> 00:00:23,766
to perform C-scans on smooth surfaces

10
00:00:23,766 --> 00:00:26,333
where near-surface
resolution is critical.

11
00:00:26,333 --> 00:00:28,366
The probe offers
a larger beam coverage,

12
00:00:28,366 --> 00:00:29,966
faster scan speed,

13
00:00:29,966 --> 00:00:31,233
and C-scan imaging

14
00:00:31,233 --> 00:00:32,866
with increased data point density

15
00:00:32,866 --> 00:00:34,366
when compared to a conventional

16
00:00:34,366 --> 00:00:36,366
ultrasonic testing technique.

17
00:00:36,366 --> 00:00:38,900
It features two rows of 32 elements

18
00:00:38,900 --> 00:00:41,266
operating in a
pitch-catch configuration

19
00:00:41,266 --> 00:00:43,466
for improved near-surface resolution

20
00:00:43,466 --> 00:00:46,000
and flaw detection.

21
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,300
The probe’s innovative
stabilization system

22
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:49,700
is combined with a contoured

23
00:00:49,700 --> 00:00:51,066
removable delay line

24
00:00:51,066 --> 00:00:52,400
and irrigation features

25
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,100
to provide excellent
sound transmission

26
00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:57,600
on piping surfaces as small
as 4 inches in diameter.

27
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,433
A high-temperature
version of the probe

28
00:00:59,433 --> 00:01:02,733
that can inspect surfaces up to 150 °C

29
00:01:02,733 --> 00:01:06,700
or 300 °F is available.

30
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:08,766
The Dual Linear Array corrosion probe

31
00:01:08,766 --> 00:01:10,866
is well suited for
fast manual screening

32
00:01:10,866 --> 00:01:12,600
of a small area

33
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,666
or a high-speed, full volume mapping

34
00:01:14,666 --> 00:01:17,400
with the MapROVER™
motorized scanner.

35
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,833
Our second corrosion
inspection solution,

36
00:01:19,833 --> 00:01:21,300
the HydroFORM® scanner,

37
00:01:21,300 --> 00:01:23,000
can be used as a manual scanner

38
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,666
or in conjunction with a semi-

39
00:01:24,666 --> 00:01:27,400
or fully-automated
scanner to map surfaces.

40
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,733
The HydroFORM scanner

41
00:01:28,733 --> 00:01:30,733
uses an innovative
water column concept

42
00:01:30,733 --> 00:01:32,533
that eliminates the need for a wedge,

43
00:01:32,533 --> 00:01:34,266
providing the benefits
of a phased array

44
00:01:34,266 --> 00:01:36,133
immersion tank inspection.

45
00:01:36,133 --> 00:01:37,700
It conforms to any curvature

46
00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:39,866
with a diameter of
4 inches or greater

47
00:01:39,866 --> 00:01:43,700
and couples well,
even on rough surfaces.

48
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:45,266
By using gate synchronization

49
00:01:45,266 --> 00:01:46,800
with the interface echo,

50
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,166
the HydroFORM scanner provides

51
00:01:48,166 --> 00:01:50,166
optimum near-surface resolution,

52
00:01:50,166 --> 00:01:51,566
precision measurements,

53
00:01:51,566 --> 00:01:52,966
and a significant improvement in

54
00:01:52,966 --> 00:01:56,333
flaw characterization
over conventional ultrasound.

55
00:01:56,333 --> 00:01:58,266
With the Dual Linear Array
corrosion probe

56
00:01:58,266 --> 00:01:59,966
and the HydroFORM scanner,

57
00:01:59,966 --> 00:02:02,000
Olympus offers a
full range of solutions

58
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,700
to assess corrosion in parts,

59
00:02:03,700 --> 00:02:05,733
from manual to fully
automated scanning,

60
00:02:05,733 --> 00:02:08,333
which enables you to complete
your inspection quickly

61
00:02:08,333 --> 00:02:10,200
