The Analytic
Pipe Caliper-Tool
To know details about the internal geometry of your pipeline, utilize
our intelligent device to give you answers. With the Analytic Pipe
Caliper-Tool we offer you the complete job of caliper survey to get a
clear picture of the inside diameter of your pipeline system. Our team
is a group of experienced and well trained professionals who know how
to get things working. Although we are a young company, most of us have
long time experience in working with intelligent pipeline tools.

The
ANALYTIC PIPE Caliper-Tool measures diameter reductions in pipelines
such as dents and ovalities. Even diameter variations like girth-welds,
change in wallthickness, T-pieces, valves and other installations are
detected.
|
 |
The
Caliper-Tool continuously measures the inside diameter of the pipeline
through an array of sensing fingers –"spider"- that are
spring loaded to hold them in contact with the pipe wall. A large
number of sensing fingers provide optimum coverage of the inside
circumference.
|
Wheels
at the end of each sensing-finger are in direct contact with the pipe
wall. The extremely flexible polyurethane cups enable the Caliper-Tool
to be transported through the pipeline by the medium.
|
The
Caliper-Tool is able to pass reductions of at least 25%. The spider is
separate from the cup to eliminate effects from cup wear. As the
Caliper-Tool moves through the pipeline, all radial sensor movements
are detected and recorded.
|
 |
| ID-reductions
of 0.4% will be detected. Odometer wheels generate the distance data
which in addition to the measuring data from the spider is continuously
collected and stored together with the correlative diameter values. To
locate the Caliper-Tool in the launcher, receiver or during survey, a
locator unit is used. The locator unit transmits electromagnetic
signals which will be detected by an external inspection tool locator.
A pushing flange is used to push the Caliper-Tool into the launcher and
to protect the spider against mechanical damage. The data-recorder
contains all power, processing and recording circuits in a sealed
module within the central body of the Caliper-Tool. |
