Non-Destructive Testing
 In order to evaluate the component without causing damage is the principle of Non Destructive Testing
(NDT), Non Destructive Inspection (NDI), Non Destructive Evaluation (NDE).
 It is a highly valuable technique that can save both money and time in product evaluation, trouble
shooting.
 It is very difficult to weld or mold a solid object that has the risk of breaking in service, so testing at
manufacture and during use is often essential.
 During the process of casting a metal object, for example, the metal may shrink as it cools, and crack or
introduce voids inside the structure.
 During their service lives, many industrial components need regular nondestructive tests to detect
damage that may be difficult or expensive to find by everyday

Helium Leak Testing
Aptest NDT Services supply Helium Leak Testing based
solutions; we offer a wide range of different Helium leak
testing solutions to meet our customer requirements.
We specialize in Helium leak testing, which, among all,

represent the ideal solution for leak testing in Power
Plants, Leak Testing in Refineries, Leak testing in Medical
Equipment like Freeze Dryer/ Lyophilizer. This Helium
leak testing method is characterized by a very high level
of sensitivity and reliability.
Helium Leak Testing has the possibility to partly or fully

automate the process, integrating it directly into the
manufacturing line too if required.

Eddy Current Tube Inspection
Eddy current testing is a well-established method of
nondestructive testing that is used to examine
nonferrous/nonmagnetic materials such as condenser
and heat exchanger tubes in power generation plants.
Eddy current testing reveals discontinuities in tubing,
provides plant engineers with an accurate assessment
of a unit’s condition, and is a tool for predicting the
remaining useful life of the tubes.
Along with condenser and heat exchanger tube

cleaning and leak detection applications, many power
generation plants with aging units include eddy
current testing in plant maintenance programs in an
overall effort to maximize the efficient life of their
units.

Remote Field Testing
Remote Field Testing or commonly called as RFT is an
electromagnetic testing method used to detect
discontinuities in small diameter ferromagnetic
(Carbon steel) tubes and pipes. RFT - Remote Field
Testing is essentially a through transmission test
method wherein the receiver coil detects
electromagnetic field which has traversed through the
tube wall.
The basic RFT - Remote Field Testing probe consists of

two coils (or multiple in pairs) in a send-receive
configuration. Exciter coil is energized with a low
frequency Alternating current to send a magnetic flux
to the detector coil which is located at approximately
2-3 times the outer diameter of the tube under test.
The magnetic flux travels radially through the tube
wall to the outside diameter, then propagates axially
and then traverses back through the wall reaching to
the detector coil.

Internal Rotary Inspection System (IRIS)
Many plant operators in the oil, gas and power
generation industries are faced with the challenges of
maximising the efficiency and life expectancy of their
assets but without sacrificing safety and reliability.
Therefore accurate inspection of vital components
such as pipes and tubes is crucial to ensuring the
integrity of the plant.
Internal Rotary Inspection System (IRIS) can detect

corrosion, pitting and wall loss and is most commonly
used for tube inspection in boilers, heat exchangers,
air coolers and feed water heaters. It is particularly
versatile as it is suitable for both ferrous and non-
ferrous materials, and IRIS can be used on a wide
range of tube diameters and wall thicknesses.

Advanced PAUT Inspection
PAUT is an advanced inspection method used to detect
discontinuities components such as cracks and flaws.
This method is considered very powerful and flexible
in detecting defects at it is possible to control few
parameters such as beam angle and focal length.
Phased Array UT - PAUT inspection can also be used

for variety of applications like measuring wall
thickness and corrosion testing.
Phased array UT - PAUT is used in wide range of

applications,
• Weld Inspection
• Corrosion Mapping
• Thickness measurements
www.aptestndt.com
Advanced TOFD Inspection
Time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) method of ultrasonic testing is a
sensitive and accurate method for the nondestructive testing of
welds for defects. Phased Array with TOFD combination is
commonly used to inspect pipeline welds.
The Time-of-Flight Diffraction (TOFD) method can be regarded

more and more as a standard NDT technique in an increasing
number of countries. Nevertheless, there is still a considerable
amount of development work going on.
Time-of-Flight Diffraction Ultrasonic Testing is among the most

modern testing methods for the detection of imperfections and
defects in materials. Conventional Ultrasonic Testing uses sound
reflection. ToFD testing measures the time-of-flight of an
ultrasonic pulse to determine the position of a reflector. The
application of this method is fast and extremely accurate. This has
resulted in an increasing popularity over the last few years.

UT Plate, Rod & Weld Inspection
UT - Ultrasonic Testing
Ultrasonic nondestructive testing, also known as ultrasonic

NDT or simply UT, is a method of characterizing the
thickness or internal structure of a test piece through the
use of high frequency sound waves. The frequencies, or
pitch, used for ultrasonic testing are many times higher
than the limit of human hearing, most commonly in the
range from 500 KHz to 20 MHz.
UT is used in wide range of applications,
• Weld Inspection
• Corrosion Mapping
• Thickness measurements

To Conclude
Aptest has marked its presence in The Middle East countries in all testing
methods listed below.
• Helium Leak Testing • IRIS Inspection
• ECT Tube Inspection • PAUT/TOFD Inspection
• Eddy Current Testing • RFET Inspection
