Maximize equipment longevity and reduce costs with proactive maintenance practices. Despite common belief, performing maintenance on equipment does not guarantee compliance with manufacturer specifications. During a recent site visit, our team discovered deviations from best practices in the sand detector's banding setup. Improper tightening of banding clips to detector sockets led to looseness over time due to pipeline vibrations, resulting in decreased detector sensitivity and reduced data accuracy due to insufficient transducer-to-pipe wall contact. To confirm your system's configuration, consider a comprehensive system inspection with our assistance.
