ACOUSTIC EMISSION MONITORING
AE sensors respond with amazing sensitivity to motion in the low ultrasonic
frequency range (10 kHz - 2000 kHz). Motions as small as 10-12 inches and less
can be detected
ACOUSTIC-EMISSION METHOD
This method is based on the registration of the elastic compression waves that
are emitted by the defects developing in the stressed constructions.
ACOUSTIC EMISSION SYSTEMS
AE data collection systems
•Laptop based AE system
•DiSP Systems (any number of channels can be used)
• Portable AE test system (lunch box)
CASE STUDY

SPHERE
MAX: PRESSURE 22 Kg/cm2

structure and vessel
2. Paint layer peel-off

IR THERMOGRAPHY
•
Infrared thermography is based on the principle of detection and measurement
of infrared radiations QR) arising from the natural or stimulated thermal radiation

FERROGRAPHY
1.WEAR DEBRIS ANALYSIS
MODE: ABRASION, IMPACT, FATIGUE, EROSION, CORROSION
RATE : CONCENTRATION OF WEAR DEBRIS
SEVERITY : SIZE OF DEBRIS INDICATES
LOCATION : COLOUR OF THE PARTICLES
2.SPECTROMETRIC ANALYSIS
•OIL ELECTRICALLY EXCITED TO THE POINT WHERE LIGHT IS EMITTED.
•ELEMENT EMITS A LIGHT OF ITS OWN PARTICULAR COLOR AND
FREQUENCY.
•SPECTROMETERS TRANSLATES THE INTENSITY OF THIS RAINBOW OF
COLORS INTO A COMPUTERIZED READOUT.

FIELD SIGNATURE MAPPING
• The FSM Inspection Tool (FSM) is a new
technology for monitoring and inspection
of metallic pipes and structures, pipelines
and storage vessels
• Reduce life cycle inspection costs
• Reduce inspection time
FIELD PATTERN
Graphical plots indicating the
severity and location of corrosion,
and calculates actual corrosion
and metal loss
Sensing pins (electrodes) in an
array over the monitored
area to detect changes
in the electrical field pattern.
The voltage = the signature.
INDUSTRIAL ARRANGEMENT
A typical refinery monitors high temperature
areas such as heater bends in the
distillation unit.
