In the petrochemical industry, extreme operating conditions—high temperature, pressure, and corrosion—demand precise and reliable inspection tools. Industrial videoscopes, with their high-resolution imaging, small diameters, and flexibility, are widely used for internal inspections of pipelines, welds, heat exchangers, and more. They play a critical role in maintenance and quality control.

Application Cases:

1. Chemical Plant Equipment Department – Small-Diameter High-Pressure Pipeline Inspection

During shutdown maintenance, internal inspection is required for pipelines with diameters of 25mm~32mm, some with internal bends. The videoscope can easily navigate these areas and provide clear visuals of welds and corrosion.

2. Waste Heat Cooling Unit – Post Cleaning Verification

Long-term operation causes severe rust buildup inside the pipes. After on-site flushing, the rust turns into slurry. A videoscope is used to verify cleaning effectiveness and generate reports for the client.

3. Welding Technology Department – Overlay & Pressure Component Inspection

Used for inspecting corrosion-resistant overlay components, non-overlay boiler parts, and pressure vessels. Common inner diameters include 14.83mm, 24.33mm, and 45.15mm. The equipment is used 7~8 hours per day with a high inspection frequency of 60~80 times daily.

4. Quality Department of a Chemical Plant – Stainless Steel Surface Finish Inspection

Inspects the internal surface finish of 314 stainless steel condenser tubes (100mm~133mm diameter, 60~100m length). Each section is 3~10 meters and joined by detachable clamps, enabling easy segmented inspection.

Industrial videoscopes have become an essential tool in the petrochemical industry for tasks such as weld flaw detection, corrosion inspection, cleaning validation, and internal surface quality assessment—thanks to their portability, versatility, and visual precision.
