Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) is a powerful, advanced NDT method specifically designed for the rapid and reliable detection of corrosion, pitting, and wall loss in ferromagnetic materials. This technique is a cornerstone of our asset integrity programs, particularly for inspecting critical structures like tank floors and pipelines where internal corrosion is a significant threat.

How MFL Works: Uncovering Hidden Defects

Our process begins with the use of powerful permanent or electromagnets to create a magnetic field that saturates the test material. A sensor is then passed over the magnetized surface to measure any disturbances in this magnetic field. When the sensor encounters a defect, such as a localized area of wall loss or pitting, the magnetic field is "leaked" or distorted. Our advanced MFL equipment detects and quantifies this magnetic flux leakage, allowing our certified technicians to precisely determine the location, size, and severity of the defect.

This method is highly effective because it provides a comprehensive screening of large areas in a single pass, offering a fast and efficient way to assess the overall health of an asset.

The MFL Advantage for Your Operations

Our MFL services provide essential benefits that help you mitigate risk and optimize performance:

• Preventive Risk Management: By identifying hidden corrosion before it leads to a loss of containment, MFL helps you proactively prevent costly failures, environmental damage, and
  safety incidents.
• Targeted Repairs: The precise data from an MFL scan allows for targeted, localized repairs, significantly reducing costs and minimizing the need for extensive work.
• Enhanced Reliability: Regular MFL inspections contribute to a robust asset integrity program,
  ensuring the long-term reliability and service life of your most critical infrastructure.

By partnering with us, you gain access to a state-of-the-art MFL solution that delivers actionable data, empowering you to make informed decisions and maintain operational excellence.
