Pulsed Eddy Current Tank Floor Probe
A thin titanium-blade PEC probe screens storage tank annular rings in service and assesses remaining wall thickness beneath the tank floor edge.
Product overview
The Pulsed Eddy Current Tank Floor Probe is designed for in-service screening of annular rings on aboveground storage tanks. Its thin titanium blade accesses the region beneath the tank floor edge, allowing inspection without emptying the tank.
Pulsed eddy current technology assesses remaining wall thickness in this corrosion-prone region. The blade can slide up to 400 mm (16 in) beneath the floor edge and scan wall thicknesses up to 25 mm (1 in). Magnetic shielding on the underside helps protect measurements from signal distortion caused by potential ferromagnetic structures while supporting unidirectional sensitivity.
Integrated remote controls and status LEDs support operation by one person. A permanently etched ruler provides a position reference, while side and front mounting points accommodate an add-on external encoder. The titanium blade is designed to withstand harsh tank terminal conditions.
Key capabilities
Thin titanium blade
The 4.8 mm (0.2 in) blade enables access beneath the tank floor edge.
In-service screening
The probe screens storage tank annular rings without emptying the tank.
Wall thickness assessment
PEC inspection assesses remaining wall thickness and scans walls up to 25 mm (1 in) thick.
One-person operation
Built-in remote controls and status LEDs support operation by a single inspector.
Permanent position reference
A durable etched ruler is built into the blade.
Magnetic shielding
The magnetically shielded bottom surface helps limit signal distortion from potential ferromagnetic structures.
Unidirectional sensitivity
The probe provides unidirectional inspection sensitivity.
External encoder mounting
Side and front mounting points accommodate an add-on external encoder.
