Pipeline integrity and corrosion control

Radiodetection’s PCMx system enables corrosion and Cathodic Protection System (CPS) professionals to evaluate the condition and effectiveness of pipeline coatings.  Users can locate faults and holidays in the coatings, and identify shorts caused by contact to other structures.

PCMx enables pipeline managers to identify and prioritise preventative maintenance on pipelines; extending asset life by identifying possible sources of corrosion at an early stage.

The system can be used to conduct ACCA and ACVG surveys in accordance with ANSI/NACE SP0502-2010 ‘Standard Practice for Pipeline External Corrosion Direct Assessment Methodology’. These surveys, which may be conducted separately or simultaneously, can be used to locate and pinpoint coating defects or identify shorts made by contacts with other structures.

Locating specific pipes, cables and utility RF markers in large underground networks is very complex. Ground distortion effects, caused by differing soil types and proximity to other conductors, make the user’s job more difficult and time-consuming. The most important requirements for a locator under these circumstances are ease of use, accuracy and reliability. Radiodetection’s RD7100+ Utility Locator range addresses these needs with many features that deliver accurate, reliable and repeatable performance.

  • Detect all commonly used RF utilities markers with automatic depth estimation for faster and accurate surveys
  • Combined mode to scan simultaneously for cables, pipes and RF markers reducing surveying time
  • Bluetooth connectivity as standard to interface to external devices and GIS systems
  • High contrast screen and weatherproof (IP54) construction for operation in almost any environment
  • Light weight and ergonomic design allow prolonged usage
