Pulse Eddy Current

Pulse Eddy Current (PEC) Inspection System | Advanced Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) Detection Solution

Pulse Eddy Current (PEC) is an advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) technique designed for inspecting carbon steel assets such as pipelines, pressure vessels, storage tanks, and structural components without requiring direct contact with the steel surface. By measuring percentage variations in steel thickness through non-conductive and non-magnetic materials, PEC enables inspectors to assess asset integrity without removing insulation, coatings, or protective coverings, significantly reducing inspection time and operational costs.

Powered by the latest battery technology, the MAXWELL NDT Pulse Eddy Current Instrument delivers enhanced performance, speed, and inspection efficiency compared to conventional systems. Developed based on over 25 years of practical field experience within the global oil and gas industry, this innovative solution provides reliable corrosion monitoring and wall thickness assessment, making it an ideal tool for Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) inspections and asset integrity management programs.
