Exchanger failures during turnarounds are often preventable with the correct non-destructive examination approach. This video explains why standard visual or borescope inspections can miss critical internal defects and which technologies provide reliable data for tube bundles.

What this video covers

  • The specific applications for Eddy Current testing on non-ferrous, stainless, and copper alloy tubes.
  • The use of Remote Field Testing for carbon steel bundles and fin-fans.
  • Near Field Testing for air-cooled exchangers and thin-wall carbon steel tubes.
  • The capability of Internal Rotary Inspection Service to generate a full C-scan wall thickness profile.
