INDUSTRIAL VIDEOSCOPE INSPECTION SERVICE FOR HEAT EXCHANGERS – AITECH

Optimize Maintenance with Industrial Videoscope Inspection of Heat Exchangers

At AITECH, we provide advanced industrial videoscope inspection services (Remote Visual Inspection - RVI) for heat exchangers used in power plants, refineries, chemical facilities, and industrial systems. Videoscope inspection allows detailed internal visual inspection of heat exchanger tubes without dismantling the system, enhancing safety, precision, and decision-making.

✅ Why Heat Exchangers Require Videoscope Inspection

Heat exchangers operate under extreme pressure and temperature, transferring heat between fluids. Tube-type exchangers, commonly inspected with videoscopes, are susceptible to:

• Cracking and corrosion due to thermal stress

• Calcium deposits and erosion in weld joints and U-bends

• Contaminant buildup, reducing efficiency and increasing failure risk

A videoscope can access narrow and curved tubes (up to 240 inches with U-bends), capturing high-resolution visuals of inner surfaces for accurate damage assessment.

✅ Integrated Software for Accurate Reporting

Our equipment, such as Olympus videoscopes with InHelp™ software, enables synchronized capture of image data and inspection location information. This streamlined process:

• Allows one-person operation

• Reduces reporting time

• Improves traceability and result reliability

✅ Combined with NDT for Maximum Reliability

AITECH combines videoscope inspection with other NDT techniques such as ultrasonic flaw detection or eddy current testing. Defects identified through NDT can be further evaluated visually using videoscope for severity grading and repair planning.

✅ Applications

• Power plant shutdown inspections

• Preventive maintenance of condensers and heat exchangers

• Visual confirmation of UT/ET indications

• Quality control during manufacturing and commissioning
