Phoenix offers one of the largest ranges of inspection systems on the market for testing PWR and other nuclear plant.

APSIS

APSIS - Automatic Pressuriser Surge Line Inspection SystemAPSIS - Automatic Pressuriser Surge Line Inspection SystemThe Automatic Pressuriser Surge Line Inspection System was specifically designed for use on PWRs. It allows the inspection of transition, austenitic and thermal sleeve welds on the pressuriser surge line and the surge line to primary loop welds using conventional and TOFD techniques.

APSIS can be assembled and dismantled in under 12 minutes and can operate unattended, thus limiting operators’ exposure to radiation.

For more information on the APSIS please contact our sales department.

Stud Inspection Manipulatorsim_1

SIM

Designed for the inspection of vessel studs and fixing bolts without removing them, the Stud Inspection Manipulator passes the probe head down the central heating hole.

It carries six probes (pulse echo and TOFD), provides a full length scan of the bolt and can perform a helical scan or raster scan. Set-up is less than 10 minutes per bolt.

SWIS – Set in (Nozzle) Weld Inspection System

SWISMany of the more experienced in the practice of ultrasonic inspection appreciate the difficulties associated with the inspection of nozzle saddle welds.

The Saddle Weld Inspection System (SWIS) simulates the manual operator’s dexterity in rotating the probe whilst scanning around a nozzle.

For more information on SWIS please contact our sales department.
