Magnetic pipe flaw detector ДМТП

Abstract-A ДМТП magnetic flaw detector with transverse magnetization of pipes, which was designed at ZAO Spektr is described in brief. It is to be used for inspecting the state of buried gas-main pipelines, detecting mechanical, erosion, and corrosion flaws in them, and estimating their dimensions and location in the tested section. Performance characteristics of the flaw detector are compared with those of earlier designed flaw detectors with longitudinal magnetization of tested pipes.
