Advanced Radiography Inspections

For Insulated Pipelines

The Profiler scans insulated pipes quickly and easily while they are still in service. It examines insulated piping for blockage, internal corrosion and corrosion under insulation. The Profiler can also detect weldments on insulated piping, which is helpful when you require PMI testing.
