MFL Pipe Scanning

What Is MFL Pipescan HD?

Pipescan HD is a high-resolution handheld scanner that uses Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) to quickly detect and map corrosion or pitting in steel pipes. It delivers rapid insights into pipe integrity with minimal setup.

Key Benefits

  • Detects corrosion and pitting as small as 1 mm in diameter
  • Works in-service (up to 60 °C) with minimal surface preparation
  • No couplant required
  • Fast setup and instant reporting

How It Works
Pipescan HD magnetizes the pipe wall. Any corrosion or metal loss disturbs the magnetic field, which is detected by sensitive Hall-effect sensors. Dense sensor arrays create precise C-scan images, giving a clear map of defects. Data is stored for post-inspection review and threshold adjustments.
