        QSR

        Detail

        The QSR® is GUL’s new quantitative short range (QSR) device, incorporating the latest guided wave technology and hardware. The system is designed to semi‑automatically scan predefined sections of straight pipelines for corrosion under pipe supports (CUPS). The QSR1® can provide a quantitative measure of the average wall, as well as the remaining wall thickness down to half of the nominal wall thickness.

          Wavemaker G4 Mini Full

          Detail

          The latest Wavemaker® G4 Mini offers all of the traditional Wavemaker® features and some new ones in a small (22 x 30 x 13cm) and lightweight (4.5 kg) package.

          This fully loaded instrument is capable of working with all of the pipe and tube transduction systems produced by GUL. It is suitable both the the lower frequencies that are used for buried and coated pipes and the higher frequencies that are used sith HD rings for support inspection and higher sensitivity to pitting. With one button press, the instrument can be placed into gPIMS Collector mode to allow a minimally trained operator to collect repeat data from a permanently installed gPIMS sensor.

          Detail

          The Compact® ring is the latest addition to the GUL guided wave transduction system which has been designed to be lightweight and low profile. This new system has been completely re‑engineered to build on everything that has been done before, while reducing weight by 35%, axial width by 30%, and radial height clearance to under 38mm.

          “Solid

          Detail

          The solid transducer rings are typically used for standard screening of pipes with nominal size between 2 and 8 inches in diameter. The rings are attached to the pipe by tightening the two large handles which push the spring loaded transducers onto the pipe to obtain good shear contact.

          Detail

          These transducer rings are designed to provide effective inspection capability, particularly for larger diameter pipes. Pneumatic pressure is used to press transducers modules (which are mounted onto this ring) against the pipe wall. These modules are fully interchangeable between inflatable collars of all sizes.

          Detail

          The High Definition (HD) solid ring has been developed to utilize the high frequency range available with the Wavemaker® G4 and G4mini for applications where higher sensitivity and resolution are required. Such applications typically include interface penetrations, supports and localised pitting.

          Detail

          The HD inflatable ring has been developed for the same applications as the HD solid ring where higher sensitivity and resolution are required, and pipe sizes are larger than 6 inches.

          The use of this type of transducer ring requires the Wavemaker® G4 with the medium frequency option, or the Wavemaker® G4mini.

          Detail

          High Temperature (HT) rings and modules are similar to standard EFC inflatable rings, but are capable of testing pipes operating at up to 350°C provided that the ring is removed from the pipe within 15 minutes of being applied. In order to carry out the guided wave inspection, only a 50 cm (20 inch) wide strip of insulation needs to be removed. No couplant is required.

          Detail

          The extendable small diameter transducer or “Claw” is able to fit between closely spaced tubes where conventional rings cannot fit. There is also a remote access option where the tool head is attached to a 2 metre long extension arm that allows inspection of difficult to access tubes or pipes. Different transducer spacing options are available.

          Detail

          The ultra low profile ring or “Slinky” was specifically designed to be able to fit around pipes that have a very limited radial clearance, like those commonly found in culverts or pipe racks. Typically less than 25mm of clearance is required to be able to mount the rings.

          Detail

          The environmentally robust gPIMS® range of sensors has been developed to be easily bonded onto the pipe, sealed and then left in place. A cable connects the gPIMS® sensor to a connection box that can be located in a convenient, easy to access location.

          By performing repeat inspections and comparing the results to previous inspections, operators can monitor for any change in the condition of the pipe. Frequent data collection significantly improves sensitivity and reduces false call rates compared to conventional guided wave testing.
