The HydroFORM scanner is designed to offer the best inspection solution for the detection of wall-thickness reductions due to corrosion, abrasion, and erosion. This solution also detects mid-wall damage such as hydrogen-induced blistering or manufacturing-induced laminations and easily differentiates these anomalies from loss of wall thickness. The unique quick adjustment device offered by the scanner enables the wedge/probe assembly to be positioned to any curvature greater than 4 in. OD (101 mm).
HydroFORM is the first commercially-available, semi-automated phased array product for corrosion mapping applications. The patent-pending quick radius adjustment enables the inspection of different curvatures. The HydroFORM scanner can be attached to automated or semiautomated scanners and used independently as a manual scanner.
