Phased Array UT

Phased Array Ultrasonic Inspection (PAUT) is a very specialist and advanced method of ultrasonic testing. PAUT is seen as a safer way to carry out radio-graphic inspection, as it can produce an image of the inspected area, without exposing anybody to radiation.

To inspect a large volume of material, a conventional ultrasonic probe must be physically moved to scan the area of interest. In comparison, the beam from a PAUT probe can be focused and swept electronically, without the need to move the probe. The beam emission is controlled as the probe is made up of multiple small elements, each of which can be pulsed individually at calculated times. The term 'phased' refers to the timing, whilst the term array refers to the multiple elements.

Pipeline NDT Inspection

At WHE NDT we specialise in Pipeline NDT Inspections, in existing and new installations.

Our experienced NDT technicians carry out a multitude of testing methods, depending on application, environment and client specification.

Inspection methods used include;

Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing, Manual Ultrasonic Testing, Ultrasonic Thickness Surveys, Magnetic Particle Inspection, Dye Penetrant Inspection & Visual Inspection.

Ultrasonic Weld Inspection

Ultrasonic Inspection is a Sub-Surface Inspection that is carried out to ensure the soundness of the Weldment, Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) and Parent Material. This ensures the component is free from defects and fit for purpose.

This form of Ultrasonic Inspection uses sound waves, both Shear and Longitudinal, to penetrate through the medium and find any discontinuities throughout the component. Our qualified and knowledgeable Ultrasonic Inspection Engineers will be able to perform this inspection and provide a report explaining their findings.

Inspection Standard - BS EN ISO 17640:2017

Acceptance Criteria - BS EN ISO 5817:2014
