ACS A2075 SoNet – Advanced EMAT Scanner for Pipeline Inspection

ACS A2075 SoNet – Advanced EMAT Scanner for Pipeline Inspection

The ACS A2075 SoNet is an advanced non-contact ultrasonic scanner designed for automated inspection of industrial pipelines using guided wave ultrasound and EMAT (electromagnetic acoustic transducer) technology . The system is specifically designed to detect corrosion, stress corrosion cracking and other critical defects in pipe walls without the use of coupling fluid.

The A2075 SoNet from ACS – Acoustic Control Systems uses non-contact ultrasonic inspection where ultrasonic waves are transmitted and received using electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMAT). This makes the system ideal for inspecting large pipelines under demanding field conditions.

The system is mainly used in:

  • oil and gas

  • energy sector

  • offshore

  • process industry

  • integrity control of pipelines
