Developments in instrumentation and NDT for corrosion inspection and measurement

Abstract

Latest instruments from Wells‐Krautkramer A new ultrasonic probe has been introduced by Wells‐Krautkramer Ltd., Blackhorse Road, Letchworth, Herts SG6 1HF, which halves the minimum measuring thickness of their DM2 instrument from 1.2mm (0.048in.) to 0.6mm (0.024in.) in steel. Used with a flaw detector, thicknesses in steel down to 0.3mm (0.012in.) can be measured. The performance of this probe is claimed to be better than any other corrosion thickness gauge probe currently available, and being small in size and easy to use, is particularly suited to on‐site measurement.
