MFL2000 & Handscan
| The MFL 2000 is a high speed, motorised magnetic flux leakage scanner capable of inspecting approximately 8000 square feet per shift. The ergonomic design coupled with the latest magnetic technology have resulted in an easy to operate, accurate, reliable and cost effective inspection tool. The motorised scanner has an auto-stop system which ensures any defect above the operator adjustable threshold is identified. All controls are situated in a recess at the top of the unit allowing easy viewing and operation whilst being protected against accidental adjustment. • High Speed, Cost Effective Inspection • Easy to use ergonomic design • Automatic defect detection system • Minimal maintenance requirements  |

The Handscan system is designed to compliment the, MFL 2000 and FloormapVS floorscanners. Even in such a small configuration the latest generation of permanent magnets enable localized magnetic saturation of the floor area under test. Signals from corrosion, above the operator controllable threshold, are displayed as both a visual and audible alarm. It’s low profile and extendable handle allow scanning in otherwise inaccessible areas of storage tanks such as the shell to annular area and under pipe work or heater coils. • Latest generation permanent magnet technology • Low profile with extendable handle • Separate battery operated lightweight electronic module • Easy to use, cost effective inspection tool
