Proteja sua tubulação contra danos potenciais causados por picos de pressão e corrosão
É crucial inspecionar uma tubulação em busca de bolsas de ar, pois elas podem prejudicar o funcionamento adequado da tubulação e causar problemas de segurança.
A solução Pipers® encontra bolsas de ar/gás com um sensor acústico de detecção de vazamento ao longo do fluxo da sua tubulação. Devido à sua natureza de flutuação livre, não há ruído de fundo, o que torna a Pipers® uma ferramenta de detecção de bolsas de ar/gás altamente eficiente.
Com base na inspeção da Pipers® , os operadores de tubulações obtêm informações importantes sobre o local de instalação de válvulas de liberação de ar para mitigar os riscos causados por bolsas de ar/gás.
Inspecting a pipeline for air/gas pockets is crucial because trapped air can significantly disrupt the flow of liquid within the pipeline, leading to reduced efficiency, potential damage to the system due to pressure surges, increased energy losses, and even corrosion; essentially, air pockets can hinder the proper functioning of the pipeline and pose safety concerns.
Leak detection is especially crucial in high consequence areas such as river crossings, road crossings, and pipelines passing through or under lakes. In these sensitive environments, even minor leaks can lead to significant environmental damage and regulatory penalties. Pipers® provide the reliable and accurate detection needed to safeguard these areas. Their ability to pinpoint leaks ensures that repairs can be made quickly and efficiently, minimizing any potential impact. At INGU, we are committed to enhancing pipeline safety and reliability. By integrating advanced sensor technology with AI-driven analytics and user-friendly visualization tools, we provide pipeline operators with the insights they need to maintain the integrity of their infrastructure. Choose INGU’s Pipers® for a smarter, safer approach to leak detection.
Os Pipers® registram todos os sons enquanto se movem pelo fluxo através da tubulação, o que os torna sensíveis até mesmo aos menores vazamentos.
Os Pipers® usam um sensor acústico para identificar as assinaturas de dados exclusivas de bolsas de ar/gás dentro da tubulação.
Os Pipers® inspecionam a tubulação em condições operacionais, o que os torna uma ferramenta ideal para confirmar a contenção sem interromper as operações.
Os Pipers® realizam 100 medições de pressão por segundo enquanto se movem pela tubulação, o que permite a localização precisa de sedimentos.
Os Pipers® medem continuamente a pressão e proporcionam um método altamente detalhado para determinar a linha de nivelamento hidráulico.
Os Pipers® funcionam como uma solução intermediária entre os testes hidrostáticos e as ferramentas convencionais de inspeção de tubulações (ou pigagem inteligente) e ajudam os operadores a manterem suas tubulações seguras.
Os Pipers® medem a densidade do fluxo magnético em uma tubulação e permitem a localização de eventuais conexões e revestimentos metálicos em uma tubulação não metálica.
As trepanações (“hot tapping”), especialmente as ilegais, representam riscos significativos à integridade, segurança e eficiência operacional das tubulações.
Quando combinados com dispositivos de pigagem de limpeza, os Pipers® proporcionam o ângulo de curvatura, o raio e a direção.
