A non-destructive testing method that uses ultrasonic measurements to determine the wall thickness of materials and components.
Ultrasonic Thickness Testing (UTT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique that uses high-frequency ultrasonic sound waves to accurately measure the thickness of materials without requiring access to both sides of the component. UTT is widely used to monitor corrosion, erosion and other degradation mechanisms affecting pressure equipment, piping and structural components throughout their operational life.
Ultrasonic Thickness Testing provides accurate wall thickness measurements to support asset integrity management and corrosion monitoring.
Ultrasonic Thickness Testing is one of the most widely used inspection techniques for integrity management and is commonly performed at designated Thickness Measurement Locations to support corrosion monitoring, Remaining Life assessments and Risk-Based Inspection programs.
Ultrasonic Thickness Testing is a specific application of Ultrasonic Testing used to measure wall thickness, whereas Ultrasonic Testing encompasses a broader range of inspection techniques including flaw detection and weld examination.
