Hydrocarbon Leak Detection & Corrosion under Insulation

Rely on REXA As The Final Step In Process Control. Electraulic™ power module utilizing the patented Flow Match System. This technology allows precise positioning independent of load variation and locks the cylinder in place when no movement is required. Hydraulic flow is generated by an internal positive displacement gear pump driven by a continuous duty motor without limitations on start, stop, or reverse cycles.

Water in your instrument or electrical enclosures?

 Let H2 Obvious detect the water in your enclosure

How many times after a good rainfall do you get remote box failures, wiring short-circuits, and tripping circuit breakers? Enclosures may not have efficient door seals or latches after time and it causes water to enter enclosures in small quantities until its too late.

What is H2 Obvious?

H2 Obvious is a simple device that detects small quantities of water in an enclosure, i.e., instrument junction boxes, remote satellite boxes, electrical connection boxes and closed conduit systems. Sensing the water with two highly sensitive probes, the H2 Obvious signals with a bright colored float and a high intensity flashing LED so plant personnel can observe any abnormality.

Hydrocarbon leakages and Corrosion Under Insulation CUI or UIC are industry headaches, even after many decades these are issues that are unable to be addressed with any real sense of confidence or solutions. Pipes Under insulation corrodes both externally and internally. In either scenario these forms of corrosion lead to "Product" or Hydrocarbon leakages. These pipes are always shielded from the naked eye and so often go unnoticed. The implication of corrosion on these critical pipes is insurmountable. These leakages often cause fires, explosions and even FATALITIES. Annually, Corrosion is costing industry hundreds of $Billions globally. A huge resource drain for CUI is visual strip and search which is used widespread in the industry and is the only "Guaranteed" method of detecting external corrosion. Pigging the pipes is often used for identifying internal corrosion however the frequency of pigging would not guarantee the identification of internal corrosion from one pigging session to another.

Process driven industries such as power generation, water treatment, paper manufacturing and petroleum refining are major underpinnings of today's standard

of living. We are at a crossroads for such enterprises. Management continues to strive for reduced costs, while the public and government demand a cleaner environment and preservation of natural resources. Improvement in control is the only path to meet these conflicting requirements.

program of production H2Obvious devices have been independently evaluated to demonstrate the validity and performance of the device. The impartial evaluations were conducted by Capcis Systems Limited (UMIST) who are recognized leaders in the arena of testing and authentication of materials and products specifically for corrosion monitoring and integrity management within the Oil, Gas, Utilities and Petrochemicals industries.Capcis Limited conclude: "The production model H2Obvious detectors survived exposure to pipe temperatures up to 180 degrees Celsius (356F) without apparent damage, and operated effectively after this exposure." "The H2Obvious detectors were able to detect the presence of fluid in a situation of fluctuating temperatures and cyclic vaporizing and condensing within the insulation. Depending on the position of the collection funnel, H2Obvious is able to detect and activate the presence of fluid in the insulation which has not (yet) reached the pipe surface" (Capcis ref. MC5533).
