MFL

Magnetic Flux Leakage technology:
+ High resolution
+ Operational in any product
+ Reasonable costs
+ State of the art technology


Circulation of magnetic field in the contour consisting of pipeline wall material and constant magnet is disturbed by any pipeline wall features and the deviation of magnetic flux leakage (MFL) can be detected and measured by special sensors.
 


MFL DETECTION CAPABILITIES:

- General corrosion
- Pitting
- Grooving
- Welds
- Hard spots
- Metal construct elements
- Magnets
- External excess metal objects
- T-pieces, flanges, valves, casing etc.




MFL TECHNOLOGY TO GET ERF
(ESTIMATED REPAIR FACTOR)
DATA:


- MFL data is not a direct measure-
  ment, so complex data interpretation
  is required to transform flux leakage
  into depth, width and length of
  features.

- Discrimination between internal and
  external features.

- Signal depends on length-to-width
  ratio of features, limited ability on
  narrow axial features.

- Results may be affected by pipe steel
  characteristics, external objects and
  stress in pipe walls.


Available technologies in cooperation with partner:
- Video inspection
- Geometry inspection
- Ultrasound WM (wall thickness measurement) inspection
- Ultrasound CD (crack detection) inspection
- MFL (magnetic flux leakage) inspection
- Transverse Field MFL inspection

Analytic Pipe offers you offshore and onshore MFL survey for any type of steel pipelines.
