Description

Detailed Overview

SteelCheck is a dedicated single method tube inspection instrument for the identification of OD, ID Defects and Wall Thinning. Portable and rugged the battery operated, the 3 channel tube inspection unit has been developed for Carbon Steel (Ferromagnetic) Tubes, using Magnetic Flux Leakage. Unlike other remote field eddy current method it is unaffected by external Aluminium Fins and has the capability to discriminate between external and internal defects. Packaged as a highly portable, battery operated flaw detector at an attractive price, the SteelCheck offers exceptional value for money.


Advantages

  • A 3 channel (Hall Sensor and 2 coil) tube inspection unit for Carbon Steel (Ferromagnetic Tubes) using Magnetic Flux Leakage
  • Ideal for ferrous tubing, especially fin-fan tubes
  • Industry standard 12-Way Lemo and Co-axial Lemo 00 connectors
  • Intuitive user friendly interface, single level menu system, “quick function” sidebar
  • Internal data logging system, PC application for desktop reporting
  • Large Daylight readable display 145mm (5.7”)
  • Compact, rugged site proven housing 1.2kg (2.6lbs)
  • 8 hours battery life on one charge
  • 2 year standard warranty
  • Optional ETherCover extending warranty to 5 years.

Top Features & Benefits

  • 3 channels
    • One Hall Sensor and 2 coil channels available.
  • Display Modes
    • Time base (0.1-20 seconds, Stripchart and Waterfall).
  • “Operator defined “soft keys”
    • There are four soft key positions for operator selectable icons for frequently used functions and a fifth position for the last menu function used. Each saved instrument setting can be associated with a unique, one press set of quick access functions. There are also two front panel hard keys that can also be easily programmed for rapid one press access to instrument functions.

Primary Uses & Functions

Used for Eddy Current Flaw Detection (ECT) specifically on ferromagnetic materials (steel) for crack and defect detection. Its core function is Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) of critical steel structures.


Real-World Applications

  • Surface and near-surface crack detection in ferromagnetic materials (steel)
  • Inspection of welds, particularly for fatigue and stress corrosion cracks.
  • General purpose eddy current testing on steel structures in the field.
  • Testing rail tracks and components for surface defects.
  • Inspection of vehicle chassis and heavy machinery steel components.

Industry Solutions

  • Oil & Gas
  • Power Generation
  • Flaw Detection
  • Tube Inspection

FAQ:

What makes the Steelcheck specific for steel?

The SteelCheck is specific for steel because it uses Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL), a non-destructive testing method dedicated to inspecting ferromagnetic materials like carbon steel tubing, unlike standard Eddy Current Testing.
