BonPEC
ETher NDE's innovative pulsed eddy current technology (PECT) solution.
BonPEC delivers a non-intrusive electromagnetic technique based on Pulsed Eddy Current which allows detection, measurement and monitoring of corrosion in low alloyed carbon steel pipes and vessels through their insulations, coatings, paints, concrete fireproofing or marine growth.
BonPEC does not require direct contact with the inspection target, nor cleaning or special preparation of the surface of the object to be examined, therefore no costly and unnecessary insulation removal is needed to perform PECT inspection, which delivers a considerable cost saving for the client.
PECT is the efficient and cost effective solution for the examination of insulated and corroded components and parts across the offshore industry and energy sector.

Features
Inspection Ready
The set is splash water tight, robust and easy to operate. Data collection is fast (two measurements per second) and has a scanning mode. Two cables, length 8m (26ft), is included in the standard kit. Up to 100m (328ft) can be provided.
Probes
There is a range of probes to choose from in order to optimize the reliability of the results. For a large lift-off a larger probe is needed. Two probes are available as standard, P0.5 and P1.0, with other options available.
BonPEC probes are designed to minimize false readings, hence they are insensitive to metal objects near the probe, except for the object that is right below it. Due to magnetic field focusing, the probes are (within boundaries) insensitive to lift-off change, angle mis-match or variations of sheeting thickness
Software
BonPEC software has been developed based on the way a typical NDT survey is performed. Initially one needs to know what needs to be investigated, which is represented by client and object parameters.
Portable Power
Fast and reliable PECT measurements require a high-energy magnetic pulse, which is delivered by a dedicated powerful battery inside the data acquisition unit. The tablet computer is powered by two separate batteries. Both type of batteries are provided with external chargers and are hot-swappable.
