nir-vana innovation network

The Russian company is a market leader in the development and production of equipment for non-destructive testing. The company has developed innovative equipment dry magnetic flaw detectors. The dry magnetic flaw detector for scanning pipes is designed for non-destructive testing of the main and auxiliary equipment of oil and gas production complexes. Scope of application of flaw detectors during repair and restoration work or during routine diagnostics of the technical condition of: trunk, field gas and oil pipelines; main product pipelines; vessels and reservoirs.

The equipment is a block-modular design that allows for a high degree of maintainability in the field, which is especially important for the use of a flaw detector at oil and gas pipeline transport facilities. The body of the device is made of shock-resistant material, providing high structural strength. On the front part of the housing, there is a code input unit for saving the scanned section of the pipeline. A gyroscope is installed on the board itself, which provides control of the position of the flaw detector on the pipe body. The sensor unit is located on an external spring-loaded base and is closed with a decorative protective cover.

The dry magnetic flaw detector allows the processing of the collected information and notifying the operator about the detection of potentially dangerous defects in real-time. Also, the equipment has a minimum weight and dimensions in non-destructive testing devices of this class and reduces the cost of time and money when preparing the object for diagnostics. The convenience of working with the device consists in automatic registration of the spatial position of the flaw detector and operation without recharging the battery during the entire work shift. Reduction of time and transportation costs during diagnostics for the transmission of scan results to the workplace of the flaw detector using "GSM", "GPRS".

Dry magnetic flaw detector is widely distributed not only throughout Russia but also in foreign countries. This equipment is used at the largest gas, oil, and industrial facilities.
The Russian company is looking for foreign partners from oil and gas production complexes to conclude a distribution services agreement. The company is ready to supply its equipment in the agreed volume and on time. All necessary documentation will be offered with delivery. The equipment has foreign and Russian certification. The Russian company strives to distribute its equipment to the foreign market. The purpose of the agreement is to enter a new foreign market, increase exports and profits.

Advantages & innovations

The dry magnetic flaw detector has the following unique properties: - provides collection and storage of information on detected defects at a distance of up to 40 km of the route; - the built-in system of fixing the angular position of the equipment relative to the starting point of the route and/or the vertical axis of the pipe ensures an accurate determination of the defective area; - the minimum length of the defect is 25 mm; - the design of the equipment allows the engineer to install a device for automatic marking of defective places.
