Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT)
- An array transducer is one that contains a number of separate elements in a single housing, phasing refers to how those elements are sequentially pulsed.
- This technique is used to detect flaws that cannot be easily found with conventional non-destructive testing methods such as radiography and manual ultrasonic testing.
- Main applications are weld inspection (structural/piping), Corrosion Mapping.
- PAUT is an effective & safe inspection method in lieu of Radiography testing.
