Inspections using “The ALTUM” telescopic pole

With our telescopic pole “The ALTUM” Cspect performs inspections up to 20m high. The different inspection techniques with the ALTUM are:

  • Visual: the ALTUM is equipped with a high-definition camera for visual inspections

  • Thickness: With a real A-scan the ALTUM performs ultrasonic thickness measurements with ease

  • Permeability of paint systems

Inspections below water

Underwater inspections utilizing Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) offer a superior alternative to employing divers. Cspect perform several different techniques with our ROVs

  • Sonar: Our ROVs are equipped with a precise sonar that can be used in low visible conditions.

  • Cathodic protection: Cspect’s ROVs are equipped with a probe that is used for cathodic protection measurements.

  • Thickness: Ultrasonic thickness measurements are performed with ROVs to check the remaining thickness of your structure

  • Cleaning: With a powerful water jet our ROVs remove excess organic material or debris

  • Dimension check: With a laser attachment, our ROVs can precisely measure dimension underwater.

Thickness measurements

Cspect performs thickness measurements not only with the ALTUM , but also with our own small UTM devices.

Ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) is a non-destructive testing method employed to inspect the thickness of metal in ship hulls, piping, and structural steel.

Sound inspections

Cspect performs sound inspections on different materials as marine vessels to evaluate the integrity and condition of materials and structures.

Thermographic inspections

Thermographic inspection uses infrared imaging to reveal surface temperature differences without damage. It detects overheating, poor insulation, and moisture invisible to the naked eye.

Ultrasonic leak detection

Ultrasonic leak detection is a non-invasive, highly effective method for identifying leaks in various systems.

Paint permeability inspections

Cspect inspect the permeabilty of your paint systems. This is done with our high-tech ROVs or the ALTUM telescopic pole.
