Nondestructive Inspection Of Foam And Multilayer Insulations

Techniques and equipment enable nondestructive inspection of sprayed-on foam and multilayer reflecting thermal insulations on metallic substrates. Technology is applied in factories and laboratories; to inspect insulation on cryogenic tanks and pipes. Equipment includes probe head, several electronic modules that take measurements via electromagnetic and electrostatic sensors in probe head, small computer to store and process signals from modules, and printer.
