Product Details

Nondestructive Indentation Tester for Petrochemical Plant Asset Integrity

Indentation tester used in petrochemical plant asset integrity assessment

This portable nondestructive indentation tester (Model PMT-1000) is specifically applied in the petrochemical industry to assess in-service equipment integrity without interrupting operations. It provides rapid, accurate measurements of mechanical properties, supporting safety assessments and life extension decisions.

Key Features

On-site integrity assessment: Ideal for periodic inspection of pressure vessels and pipelines in petrochemical plants.
Non-destructive (NDT): Minimal indentation depth of 60–120 μm avoids structural damage.
Rapid results: Data acquisition at 100 Hz enables quick on-site decisions.
Designed for harsh environments: Suitable for high temperature, humidity, dust, vibration, and confined spaces.

FAQ

Q: Can this tester be used in explosive atmospheres?
A: It is designed for industrial use, but please confirm specific safety certifications with our sales team for your environment.

Q: What is the typical testing time for one point?
A: With a data acquisition rate of 100 Hz and adjustable speed, a single measurement can be completed within minutes, depending on material and load.

Q: How does the indentation energy difference method work?
A: It measures the energy difference during loading and unloading cycles to derive mechanical properties without destructive sampling.

Q: What maintenance is required?
A: Regular calibration and cleaning of the indenter tip are recommended. Spare parts are available.

Q: Can it be used on curved surfaces?
A: Yes, with optional fixtures designed to accommodate pipes and curved surfaces.
