Usage
Detect dents and deformation are in order to check construction quality of pipeline.
Clean up construction waste like stones or sticks and impurities adhering to the inner face of pipeline such as welding beadings or rust etc;
Formation
It consists of steel framework, fixing flange, 24 PU cups or discs and a gauging aluminium disc. The gauging disc is notched and chamfered angle.
The gauging discs diameter is usually 90% of pipelines internal diameter for land pipeline and 95% for submarine pipeline.
Property & Performance
It can pass elbows with diameter more than 1.5D, without pressure leakage when passing tees.
The gauging aluminium disc can perfectly keep close to the inner face of pipeline without scraping even when passing elbows, by which gauging accuracy is ensured.
Wireless emitter and ground tracker can be fitted for location.
The best operating speed: 0.51.5m/s (liquid medium); 13m/s (gas medium); operation distance: ≥180km
