Description

Corrosion monitoring is the use of an etchant or a set of methods. And it is a device to provide offline or online information on corrosion rates expressed in mpy.  For better maintenance, and to take or improve preventive measures to resist and prevent corrosion.

Introduction to Corrosion Monitoring Probe

ER Corrosion Monitoring Probe is usually used in the oil industry, chemical processing industry, and other environments that need to detect corrosion rates online. A corrosion probe can detect corrosion rate without removing the probe. Because these probes are manufactured in-house. We can provide fast turnaround times and products according to your requirements for temperature, pressure, and other conditions. The working principle of the resistance probe is based on the resistance change of the probe element when exposed to corrosive conditions. You can use resistance probes in both conductive systems and non-conductive environments such as oil, gas, and atmosphere. The wire and ring elements are Teflon or glass-sealed. Sensing elements are available in a variety of materials and thicknesses. The speed/safety shield reduces the speed of the fluid around the sensing element to protect it from floating debris.

What is Corrosion Monitoring?

There are many ways to prevent and protect against corrosion, such as cathodic protection, selection of suitable chemicals, and injection such as corrosion inhibitors. However, to assess the effectiveness of these methods and measures, one must carry out corrosion monitoring and adjust or optimize protection methods if necessary based on the monitoring results. In many industries, companies often take preventive measures to prevent corrosion, but if they do not clearly understand how effective these measures actually are, their protection efforts can be inadequate or excessive, resulting in a waste of money and resources.
