Tritex NDT manufacture a
range of Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges and Underwater Thickness Gauges
designed to take thickness measurements to inspect and check metal
thickness for corrosion. All ultrasonic thickness gauges supplied as complete kits and come with
a 3 year warranty.
-
All Tritex gauges use
Multiple Echo to ignore coatings and use single crystal probes,
as specified by class societies.
-
All Tritex Multigauges
undergo stringent testing to ensure they meet the high standards expected by
our customers. They are designed for robustness, simplicity and most
importantly, accuracy.
-
The probes have IPR
(Intelligent Probe Recognition), which automatically adjusts settings at the same time as transmitting recognition data - the result is
a perfectly matched probe for enhanced performance.
-
AMVS (Automatic
Measurement Verification System) ensures only true measurements are
displayed, even on the most heavily corroded metals.
-
Tritex Triple Echo
also significantly reduces preparation time by ensuring that coatings are
entirely ignored and no zeroing is required.
-
Coating Plus+ allows
measurements to be taken through coatings up to 20 mm thick, depending on
the coating type.
-
They can be calibrated
for all types of metal
-
They manufactured in
accordance with British Standards BS EN 15317:2007 and comply with RoHS and WEEE directives.
-
All are supplied with
a three year warranty.
Typical applications include the
inspection of Ships, Bridges, Pipelines, Storage Tanks, Road Tankers, Lighting
Columns, General Industry, Subsea structures and Pipelines and Rope Access use.
There are currently 4 gauges in the range for use above and below water:
Surface
The Multigauge 5500 is supplied with a belt clip for hands free use,
allowing access by rope, ladder, scaffolding or staging to carry out surveys.
The easy to use keypad allows operator interface whilst the bright LED display
can be used in all light conditions, whether it’s onboard a ship, on large
storage tanks, climbing on top of a road tanker or inspecting underneath a
bridge, the 5500 will make the job much easier.
The Multigauge 5600 is a simple, robust
and
designed for most common thickness gauging applications aboard ships or in the
dockyard. The graphical LCD display gives detailed information such as echo
strength, probe type and measurement units. The moulded soft rubber surround
feels comfortable, looks good and provides extra protection against knocks and
scrapes.
Both are available with protective leather cases for additional
protection in harsh environments.
Underwater Thickness Gauges
The Multigauge 3000 is simple, robust
and designed for use by divers for the inspection of
offshore and underwater structures including underwater pipelines. It is
pressure tested to 500m and has the option to transfer measurements to a surface
display unit or laptop with datalogging software with the simple addition of a
replacement end cap. It has been designed and built to survive extremely harsh
conditions that exist in the offshore and underwater industries worldwide. It uses Multiple Echo which means measurements can be easily taken without
the need to remove coatings and the large bright LED display ensures the display
can be seen by the diver, even in poor visibility. Features of the Multigauge
3000 include:
-
Large 10mm display for poor
visibility
-
Ignores coatings using
multiple echo
-
Pressure tested to 500m
-
Integral battery with 55 hour
runtime on one fast charge. No need for a spare battery.
-
Easy to use
-
No fuss upgrade option to a
topside repeater
-
Rugged and robust
-
Intelligent probe recognition
(IPR)
-
Automatic measurement
verification (AMVS)
-
No zeroing required
Tritex NDT also offer the new
Multigauge 4100 and Multigauge 4400 ROV
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges
designed to be mounted onto all types of work class ROV’s. There are two models
in the range, the Multigauge 4100 which has a depth rating of 1000m and the
Multigauge 4400 which has a depth rating of 4000m. Both Ultrasonic Thickness
Gauges have been
designed and built to survive extremely harsh conditions that exist in the
offshore and underwater industries worldwide. They have an RS422 output
which makes connection to most ROV’s simple. Measurements are displayed on
Tritex Communicator software which has a datalogging facility based on a grid or
string of measurements. Results can also be exported in a standard format.
Communicator Software
Tritex Communicator Software displays live measurement results from
either the Multigauge 3000 or 4000
series ROV Thickness Gauges onto either a laptop or PC.
Templates can be preset based on a grid, string of measurements or a combination
of both. This gives maximum versatility for a wide range of applications
including measurements on pipelines, pilings or ship hulls.
As well as storing measurement data, Communicator software also has the option
to store the time, date and an identifying label for each measurement. In
addition, various settings within either can be changed from the software
to optimise performance.
