C1 SPIDER TANK CRAWLER At At Horizon Testing Inc. we have invested in the ScanTech C1 Spider tank crawler. The C1 Spider tank crawler is a Windows computer controlled ultrasonic inspection crawler system system that is designed to continuously scan tank wall thickness as it moves up the wall. GENERAL THEORY The operation principle of the system is based upon the ultrasonic pulse-echo technique for measuring wall thickness commonly used in hand held thickness instrument meters. A transducer converts a pulse of electrical energy into ultrasonic sound vibration. The The pulse is a longitudinal wave known as a straight beam that travels perpendicular through the water to the tube wall. A small part of the energy is transmitted through the tube wall wall and is reflected off the back wall then back to the transducer. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The The C1 Spider Tank Crawler System uses a pulse echo single or dual transducer that transmits sound waves through the tank wall to determine the wall thickness. The transducer measures as it continuously scans and advances up on the tank wall. The thickness is recorded as the tank is scanned and generates a “B” scan graph. The software allows the Technician to continually view the A, B scan during the acquisition process. A report feature allows the users to create a completely custom report of any length using using a drag and drop interface.

  • C1 SPIDER TANK

    CRAWLER

    AtAt Horizon Testing Inc. we

    have invested in the

    ScanTech C1 Spider tank

    crawler. The C1 Spider tank

    crawler is a Windows

    computer controlled

    ultrasonic inspection crawler

    systemsystem that is designed to

    continuously scan tank wall

    thickness as it moves up the

    wall.

    GENERAL THEORY

    The operation principle of

    the system is based upon

    the ultrasonic pulse-echo

    technique for measuring

    wall thickness commonly

    used in hand held thickness

    instrument meters. A

    transducer converts a pulse

    of electrical energy into

    ultrasonic sound vibration.

    TheThe pulse is a longitudinal

    wave known as a straight

    beam that travels

    perpendicular through the

    water to the tube wall. A

    small part of the energy is

    transmitted through the tube

    wallwall and is reflected off the

    back wall then back to the

    transducer.

    GENERAL

    DESCRIPTION

    TheThe C1 Spider Tank

    Crawler System uses a

    pulse echo single or dual

    transducer that transmits

    sound waves through the

    tank wall to determine the

    wall thickness.

    The transducer measures

    as it continuously scans and

    advances up on the tank

    wall. The thickness is

    recorded as the tank is

    scanned and generates a

    B scan graph.

    The software allows the

    Technician to continually

    view the A, B scan during

    the acquisition process. A

    report feature allows the

    users to create a completely

    custom report of any length

    usingusing a drag and drop

    interface.

  • ANALYST D2S DRYER

    SCANNING SYSTEM

    AtAt Horizon Testing Inc. we

    have also invested in the

    ScanTech Analyst D2S Dryer

    Scanning System. The D2S is

    a Windows computer

    controlled ultrasonic

    inspection crawler system that

    isis designed to continuously

    scan cast iron paper machine

    dryer rolls for thickness. The

    system scans and records

    velocity and time of flight

    information, assuring proper

    calibration at any point on the

    roll.roll. The D2S also provides

    the flexibility and reporting

    capabilities of the analyst

    software.

    BENEFITS C1 SPIDER

    Fastest method for inspecting remote access area such as a tank.
