Profiler γ
- Product description: The Lixi Profiler utilizes a Gadolinium-153 isotope, engineered detection technology and proprietary software to provide the non-destructive testing (NDT) community with a unique tool for pipe inspect
Product introduction
The LIXI Profiler is the best tool for determining the condition of your pipes. We find all kinds of conditions. Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI). Wet Insulation. Pitting. By the way, when we use the Profiler, we don’t cut any holes in your jacketing or insulation.The Lixi Profiler utilizes a Gadolinium-153 isotope, engineered detection technology and proprietary software to provide the non-destructive testing (NDT) community with a unique tool for pipe inspection. It is hand-held, easy to learn, and simple to operate. The unique combination of technology and packaging found in the Profiler allows you to perform pipe inspection work like never before. No costly and messy removal and replacement of insulation, no need to cut a test hole and clean and prep the pipe surface - the Profiler is used with the insulation in place. No time and expense spent dealing with film - results for the Profiler are available immediately. No roping off the work area for radiation safety - the Profiler utilises Gadolinium 153, a relatively low energy source. No wondering if the spot tests you ran caught the problem - the Profiler can be used on all of the pipe, not just in spot areas. The Profiler allows inspection to be done faster, more completely, and more cost-effectively than any other method. Time is money.
Industries that benefit from our services include:
*Ammonia Refrigeration
*Petrochemical
*Fire Suppression and Water Distribution
*Lumber/Timber
*Utilities
*Pulp and Paper
*Chemical
*and pretty much any other industry that uses industrial piping.
There are many reasons pipe inspection services may be needed, for example:
*In petrochemical, positive material identification (PMI) programs begin by locating all the welds *in the system
*In refrigeration, process safety management (PSM) regulations require regular mechanical integrity (MI) testing as part of comprehensive compliance programs
*In mining, processes may involve erosive materials and routine testing prevents unexpected pipe failure
Traditional NDT techniques do not do a good job of solving pipe inspection problems. They either require destruction of the insulation, or they require too much time to be productive. While other NDT techniques suffer from significant limitations, we use a technique known as radiometric profiling. The tool that provides radiometric profiling is LIXI’s Profiler. The Profiler uses radioactive energies that detect changes in thickness as they pass through your insulation and pipes.
Radiometric profiling can identify the following indications:
*Pipe wall loss – internal and external
*Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)
*Wet insulation and icing
*Blockage and verification of empty lines
*Locate welds in preparation for PMI
*Changes in pipe size / schedule that may not be on drawings
Some of the advantages of the Profiler:
*Fast – Inspect up to 200 locations per day, compared to 20-50 locations by ultrasonic or radiography methods
*Safe – Low exposure rates, no need to rope off the area around the inspection site
*Thorough – Scans through the insulation (no need for cutting or removal) and scans everything within the beam: insulation, both sides of the pipe AND anything inside the pipe
The proprietary software of the Profiler provides a graphical representation of the condition of the pipe that provides real-time feedback during scanning. If a problem area is detected, prove-up scans can be performed immediately.
