The fluid attacks the wall on the side nobody sees, and the external coating \u2014 which is there to protect against atmospheric corrosion \u2014 also hides what is happening underneath. A stretch that looks perfect on visual inspection may have lost half of its design wall.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultrasonic measurement reverses the situation: resting the probe on the outside reads the actual remaining thickness, with the line running. The delicate point is the <strong>measurement mode<\/strong>. In Pulse-Echo the paint or coating layer is counted in and the value comes out higher than the real one: it would give a reassuring figure exactly where the risk is greatest. The <strong>Echo-Echo ThruPaint\u2122<\/strong> mode measures between two echoes inside the metal and removes the problem at its root.   <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light popmake-4066 popmake-739\" style=\"border-width:1px;min-height:250px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"250\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-727 size-full\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ultrasuonindt.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/banner_technical_support_choose_products.png?resize=1200%2C250&#038;ssl=1\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ultrasuonindt.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/banner_technical_support_choose_products.png?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ultrasuonindt.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/banner_technical_support_choose_products.png?resize=300%2C63&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ultrasuonindt.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/banner_technical_support_choose_products.png?resize=1024%2C213&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ultrasuonindt.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/banner_technical_support_choose_products.png?resize=768%2C160&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-30 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#d3d6dc\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-cover-is-layout-15701bb7 wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-ti-fg-color is-style-default has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:clamp(21.536px, 1.346rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 1.374), 35px);\"><strong>Need help choosing the right product?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-right is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-b507c051 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button popmake-4066 popmake-739\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ti-accent-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\">Contact us<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second aspect is that a single reading is of no use.

class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can the measurement be made with the line under pressure?<\/strong><p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes: the measurement is made from outside by resting the probe on the wall, without any intervention on the process. The practical limit is the surface temperature, which determines the choice of probe and couplant and requires correction of the sound velocity. <\/p><\/div><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1757830002000\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How many points are needed on each CML?<\/strong><p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">A single reading per point is not representative, because internal corrosion is irregular. Current practice calls for a cluster of measurements around the coded point, with scan mode active to hold the lowest value encountered. The exact number is set by the applicable inspection procedure.  <\/p><\/div><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1757830003000\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does the measurement also work on insulated piping?<\/strong><p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The probe has to rest on the metal, so the insulation must be opened at the measuring point: ultrasound does not cross the air gap. This is why measuring points on insulated lines are fitted with permanent inspection windows, which are reopened at each campaign without redoing the work. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Back to <a href=\"https:\/\/ultrasuonindt.it\/en\/applications\/oil-gas-and-petrochemical\/\">Oil &amp; Gas and Petrochemical<\/a>.
