    The VertiScan Rapid Inspection System uses a robotic crawler called TubeCATTM to quickly scan boiler water wall tubes during an outage. Up to five tubes can be scanned at once at speeds up to 5 meters per minute to detect defects like hydrogen damage, pitting, and cracking. Results are immediately presented on a color map showing degraded areas. Scanning all four walls generally costs less than an emergency shutdown from a tube failure. Detected indications are then checked using visual and ultrasound inspections.

    Placing the crawler on the wall

    Boilers suffer from many forms of degradation while in service. Water Wall tubes can suffer from
    Hydrogen Damage, pitting, ash and soot-blower erosion, graphitization, under-deposit corrosion,
    thermal fatigue cracking and creep damage. All of these defects can be detected by use of a fast
    robotic system known as VertiScan
    The VertiScan System is used to rapidly scan the water walls of a boiler during an outage so that
    repair decisions can be made proactively.
    Up to five tubes are scanned at once, at speeds up to 5m (15')/min The robotic (TubeCATTM) crawler
    can climb 100' up/down the water wall and handle up to 1/4" of scale between the tubes.

    Results are presented immediately on a colour map showing areas of degradation. The cost to scan
    all four walls of a boiler is generally far below the cost of an emergency shut-down due to a tube
    failure.

    All indications found are checked with visual and ultrasonic techniques where tubes are accessible.
