Broadsens offers pipeline monitoring solutions and container monitoring solutions that enable operators and engineers to oversee the integrity, durability and reliability of the assets remotely.
Containers and associated pipelines in refineries and chemical companies, boiler tubes and vessels in power generation facilities, and oil and gas pipelines are subject to corrosion and erosion damages, cracks and bolt loosening. The safe and efficient operation of refineries, chemical plants, power plants, and major transmission pipelines is important for many stakeholders. These include energy companies, chemical companies, pipeline operators, landowners, national and local governments, and the general public.
Wireless Ultrasonic Corrosion Erosion Monitoring
Broadsens WUT series wireless ultrasonic thickness sensors can provide cost-effective solutions for pipeline and refinery corrosion & erosion monitoring. The wireless ultrasonic sensors measure corrosion & erosion progress in real time, and the battery can last ten years or more.
Broadsens provides multi-channel wireless ultrasonic thickness sensor WUT204, and multi-channel ultrasonic system UT200S. Wireless ultrasonic sensor WUT204 can connect to multiple Broadsens ultrasonic transducers for real-time pipeline and refinery monitoring. WUT204 wireless ultrasonic sensor also connects temperature sensor PT 1000 for temperature compensation. UT200S system has edge-computing ability, and allows users to add additional functions to the system.
Wireless Condition Monitoring
Broadsens’s solution consists of the following components: sensors, wireless gateway, data acquisition units, and software. With industrial's acclaimed ultra-low power wireless vibration & temperature sensor system, the integrity of refinery and pipeline can be monitored in real time remotely. The structural integrity solutions can actively send ultrasound signals across key structures and detect cracks, corrosions, erosions, fatigues, and other structural failures. The end-to-end system delivers continuous environmental data, machine integrity and structural information in real time. The state-of-the-art visualization and analytic tools allow rapid assessment of the health of the structure being monitored.
Broadsens’s refinery & pipeline condition monitoring solution includes:
- Ultra-low power wireless vibration and temperature sensors
- wireless strain gauges
- Ultra-low power wireless temperature sensors
- Ultrasonic transducers
- wireless pressure sensors
These sensors comprise early warning system for the pipelines and containers, providing the essential information that help the operators and engineers to accurately monitor the health conditions of the structures and machines, increase safety and optimize operation and maintenance activities.
