Acoustic Emission is the most sensitive technique for determining the physical state of your high energy piping under operational conditions. Monitoring is non-invasive, and can determine the difference between sources related to creep damage in seam-welded piping, hanger support cracking, and thermal fatigue cracking of fittings and attachments. AEC has extensive experience in fossil high energy pipe testing, including participation in multi-year EPRI-sponsored technology development programs.

Acoustic Emission Testing Services
-
Acoustic Emission testing of high energy piping systems in fossil power plants. AE has proven to be the most sensitive and cost effective technique for global inspection of seam-welded piping systems. It can be used on reheat and superheat piping systems, and thick-walled header structures. Detection of early creep damage at the cavitation stage (pre-cracking) has been conclusively demonstrated.
