DINSEARCH 1-01 (MAC/0147)

Dinsearch 1.01 is a high-resolution, electromagnetic system designed for the rapid inspection of carbon steel tubes in heat exchangers, boilers, and coolers.

This system can inspect tubes with an outside diameter from 15mm to 70mm. A probe is inserted and withdrawn from each tube at speeds up to 50 meters per minute, a rate comparable to conventional eddy current systems for non-ferrous tubes and significantly faster than IRIS ultrasonic systems. Unlike IRIS, Dinsearch 1.01 does not require clean, water-filled tubes.

The system operates by partially magnetizing the tube wall. Metal loss from pitting, corrosion, or erosion causes localized variations in the magnetic field. Sensors on the probe detect these variations to assess the condition of the tube.

Inspection data is displayed on a computer monitor, showing the entire tube length with the ability to zoom in for high-resolution analysis. The data for several thousand tubes can be stored on the hard disk and downloaded for archival purposes.

Dinsearch 1.01 features user-friendly controls, allowing for quick setup. The system can be used with a traditional chart recorder and does not require a winch, as it provides accurate results regardless of the speed at which the probe is withdrawn.
