Ultrasonic Imaging
Ultrasonic imaging methods can provide the information needed for plant
integrity assessment. The single most important benefit of ultrasonic
imaging is the improvement offered with high quality diagnostic data
regarding plant integrity prior to planned outages. A further advantage of
ultrasonic imaging is the fact that these methods can be applied whilst
the plant is in operation.
