INDUSTRIAL BOILER NDT INSURANCE INSPECTION PREPARATION
NDT testing of industrial steam boilers is statutory every five years. Certain areas of the boiler require ultrasonic testing. These areas require exposing as they are generally covered by lagging and cladding and on most steam boilers by a refractory quarl in the furnace.

SCOPE OF WORK
Our engineers arrive on site and commence removing sections of steel cladding from the boiler. Due to the age of the lagging it’s crumbled and deemed unsuitable for re-use. It’s bagged and removed from site. Our engineers wear full protective overalls and suitable PPE to protect eyes, ears and feet; as well as suitable breathing equipment, quality dust masks in this case. Careful dimensions of the refractory quarl are taken, to ensure it’s re-built correctly. It’s then broken out using 110v breakers.
The plate surfaces are cleaned to the satisfaction of the ultrasonic inspector. If the boiler passes it’s then re-built with new lagging fit etc. If it fails our engineers can carry out the necessary repairs.
