Pipe Scanning
Based on the same principle as our gamma scanning technology, our pipe scanning service use a radioactive source and a detector to measure the average density across the diameter of a pipe. When that density fluctuates or deviates from the expected results, it indicates that there’s a deposit that is blocking the pipe. If we know the density of the material – whether it’s coke build-up or ice, for instance – we can determine the thickness of the blockage too.
