Main Applications

Weld Inspection

Ideal for:

• Pipeline weld inspection
• Pressure vessel testing
• Offshore structural weld evaluation
• Nuclear weld inspections
• Fabrication quality control

Corrosion Mapping

Suitable for:

• Pipeline corrosion monitoring
• Storage tank inspection
• Remaining wall thickness analysis

3x Faster TFM Acquisition Rate

The enhanced processing power of the OmniScan X4 series allows users to acquire clear TFM imaging at up to three times faster acquisition rates than the previous model (X3 64). Take advantage of the OmniScan X4 64:128PR unit’s faster speed and 128-element capacity to conduct TFM inspections with increased focusing capabilities.

Proven to Perform, Trusted to Deliver

Each OmniScan X4 unit is a complete multitechnology inspection toolbox, enabling you to exploit multiple ultrasonic testing techniques. Leverage its detection and measurement capabilities to accurately identify and evaluate the severity of damage before it becomes critical, protecting welds, components, and assets most susceptible to cracking or corrosion.

Assess with Certainty Using PCI

Eliminate doubt through phase coherence imaging’s capacity to detect and accentuate historically difficult-to-detect flaws, including hook cracks and stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Use PCI to clearly distinguish individual flaws in colonies of fine cracks and characterize them with certainty.

Gain Instant Insights and Eliminate Inefficiency
Twice the Confidence with Twin TFM and PCI

Exploit the individual attributes of PCI and TFM to thoroughly investigate the volume of welds from both sides simultaneously. Use two probes to scan the weld in one pass, displaying TFM and PCI results to compare, measure, and confirm your characterization of indications with efficiency and precision.

Engineered for Speed and Simplicity

Performing phased array, TOFD, TFM, and PCI is straightforward and intuitive on the OmniScan X4 series. Inspectors of any experience level can exploit these techniques with increased efficiency and more confidence utilizing the simple step-by-step scan plan and application presets.
