Tank Floor Scan by Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL)

Tank Floor Scan by Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL)  scanning is a fast inspection technique used a magnetic field to detect corrosion and pitting in carbon steel. MFL uses a powerful magnet to magnetize the steel tank bottom. The magnetic field leaks from defects –corrosion or material loss– will be detected by MFL sensors. 3D MFL can provide discrimination between top and bottom surface defects.

Application:
– Topside and underside wall loss detection on ferrous material
– Carbon steel aboveground storage tank bottom

Benefits Tank Floor Scan by Magnetic Flux Leakage  :

– Underside wall loss can be detected
– Fast method for inspecting large area
– Coating removal is not necessary
– Full tank floor mapping
– Full data recording
