ECT Tube Inspection Training & Mockup Testing Bundle

Product Overview:

The ECT Tube Inspection Training & Mockup Testing Bundle is a highly effective tool designed for training and mockup testing in the field of Eddy Current Testing (ECT). This bundle simulates realistic tube defects commonly encountered in industrial applications, offering valuable hands-on training for NDT professionals. It is particularly useful for industries such as power generation, oil & gas, and manufacturing, where tube integrity plays a critical role in operational safety and performance.

This bundle is specifically designed with Al-Brass and CuNi (Copper-Nickel) materials to provide versatile training, simulating defect scenarios that NDT technicians will encounter in real-world applications. The included tubes are embedded with various types of defects, ensuring a comprehensive learning experience for technicians and engineers looking to develop and hone their inspection skills.

Bundle Specifications:

Material Options:

• Al-Brass (Aluminum Brass): A corrosion-resistant alloy commonly used in industrial applications such as heat exchangers, condensers, and seawater systems.

• CuNi (Copper-Nickel): Known for its high resistance to corrosion in aggressive environments, often used in marine and chemical processing industries.

Tube Outer Diameter (OD):

• 19.05 mm (0.75 inches), a standard diameter used in many tube systems across various industries.

Tube Wall Thickness:

• 1.65 mm, designed to simulate typical wall thicknesses in real-world industrial systems.

Tube Length:

• 1500 mm (1.5 meters), providing sufficient length for effective inspection and testing.

Total Number of Tubes:

• 10 tubes total, designed for multi-method inspection, each with unique defect simulations.

Inspection Method:

• Specifically designed for Eddy Current Testing (ECT), ideal for detecting surface and near-surface defects such as cracks, corrosion, and pitting.

Realistic Defect Simulation:

Each tube in the ECT Tube Inspection Bundle is embedded with a variety of real-world defects, carefully designed to reflect conditions that technicians would encounter during actual inspections. These defects are strategically placed within each tube to replicate common damage caused by factors like corrosion, stress, and mechanical fatigue.

Defect Types Simulated:

• Surface Cracks

• Pitting and Corrosion

• Wall Thinning

• Fatigue Cracks

• Manufacturing Defects

Defect Placement:

The defects are distributed across both the outer and inner surfaces of the tubes, providing a thorough and comprehensive inspection experience. Technicians will practice identifying defects at various depths and locations within the tube.

Material-Specific Defects:

The Al-Brass and CuNi tubes each come with distinct defect profiles, reflecting the unique characteristics and behaviors of these materials in different operational environments.

Training & Mockup Testing:

This ECT Tube Inspection Training & Mockup Testing Bundle serves as both a training tool and a mockup testing system, offering professionals an opportunity to practice and refine their Eddy Current Testing (ECT) techniques.

Training Programs:

• Perfect for NDT training schools, corporate training programs, or internal certification. The bundle provides realistic defect scenarios in Al-Brass and CuNi materials, allowing trainees to develop proficiency in detecting surface and near-surface flaws.

• Technicians will become proficient in using Eddy Current Testing (ECT) for inspecting non-ferrous materials, with a focus on Al-Brass and CuNi tubes, both of which are prevalent in critical industrial applications.

Mockup Testing:

• The bundle enables realistic mockup inspections, giving your team the opportunity to test and verify their inspection methods and tools before applying them to live systems.

• A valuable tool for simulating the defects typically encountered in heat exchangers, condensers, and other tube-based systems found in industries such as power plants and marine systems.

Inspection Reports (Optional):

For clients requiring detailed assessments of the inspection process, we offer optional inspection reports at an additional cost. These reports provide in-depth analysis of the defects detected during testing, enabling you to assess your team's performance and ensure compliance with industry standards.

Inspection Report Includes:

• Defect Descriptions: Detailed information on each defect, including type, size, and location within the tube.

• Severity Rating: Evaluation of defect severity to help prioritize repairs and maintenance actions.

• Inspection Methodology: A detailed description of the Eddy Current Testing (ECT) procedure used for defect detection.

• Visual Data: High-quality images and diagrams showing the locations of the defects, making it easier to understand and evaluate the inspection process.

• Recommendations: Expert advice on repair or maintenance actions needed based on the severity and type of defects found.

• Certification: Documentation that certifies the inspection process meets the necessary quality standards.

Documentation Included:

Each ECT Tube Inspection Training & Mockup Testing Bundle is accompanied by comprehensive documentation to support training, testing, and compliance:

CAD Diagrams: Technical drawings showing the tube layout, material specifications, and defect placements for effective setup and inspection.

Defect Details: A comprehensive document outlining the types of defects simulated in each tube, along with their expected behavior in real-world applications.

Compliance Certificates: Official certifications ensuring that the bundle adheres to key industry standards, such as:

• ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management Systems)

• ISO 9712:2012 (NDT Personnel Certification)
