JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - April 27, 2020 - Apellix, protecting the world's built and industrial environments through technology, is proud to announce they are now identifying pilot projects for ultrasonic wall thickness (UT) inspections of above-ground storage and terminal tanks.

Using semi-autonomous drones, Apellix performs UT wall thickness measurements on tanks as high as 60 meters. The system can measure up to 100 locations per hour, reporting real-time results to the engineer who is safely on the ground. All test data, as well as test location, environmental data, and video confirmation is time-stamped and stored on the onboard computer for easy download to Excel™ or your customer reporting software.

The Apellix systems use the DeFelsko PosiTector UTG M gauge with a single element 5 MHz contact transducer. If you are interested in evaluating the system, please visit the Apellix website or contact Apellix at info@apellix.com or +1-904-647-4511
