The Scorpion B-scan is a rugged remote access ultrasonic crawler designed to allow cost effective A and B-scan imaging on above ground ferro-magnetic structures such as oil storage tanks without the need for costly scaffolding or rope access.

The Scorpion remote access crawler uses a unique “Dry Coupled” ultrasonic wheel probe eliminating the need for traditional couplant. This allows the crawler to travel vertically, horizontally or even inverted whilst still fully functional.

The Scorpion B-scan system continuously records thickness measurements received from the dry coupled TWP12 dual wheel probe and combines the data with the encoder information.

• Battery Operated
• Standard Flaw Detector Controls
• Dry Coulped Ultrasonic Wheel Probe 5 Mhz dual / twin compression transducer
• 25 mm/sec speed
• 30 meter cable length
• Near surface resolution down to 2.5 mm
• can drive over 12 mm weld
• wall thickness range between 5 mm & 100 mm
• can inspect over non conductive coating less than 1 mm thickness

The recorded thickness information is presented in the software as an A-scan trace, a digital thickness measurement and a B-scan profile. The software has standard flaw detector controls for the A-scan set-up.
