Available Models and Accessories
DWTT Drop Weight Tear Tester
The most comprehensive and high-end range of DWTT Drop Weight Tear Testers for measuring the fracture characteristics and fracture ductility of steel specimens according to API 5L, EN 10274, ASTM-E 436, ‘Pellini’ and much more. Our DWTT range is extremely robust and stands up to the requirements of high energy testing and is ideally suited to both quality control and research applications. These DWTT systems have a pneumatic sample loader which places the specimen quickly and accurately on the anvil prior to impact. This ensures compliance with cycle times as stipulated by the relevant standards and ensures full operator safety. The DWTT range offered by Qualitest accommodates impact energies up to 100,000J and specimens up to 50mm thick.

Pipescan MFL Corrosion Detection Pipe Scanner
Pipescan is an easy to use, cost effective, portable, magnetic flux leakage inspection system for the detection of random internal corrosion in pipe runs. The latest magnetic material coupled with a unique mechanical design enables coverage of all pipe diameters from 6" to 96" / 50 mm to 2.4 metres with just two adjustable scanning heads. Unlike some other inspection methods, MFL is not affected by product flowing through the pipe runs so surveys can be carried out both on-line and off-line. Use of Pipescan, with its high probability of detection, to locate actual internal corrosion, coupled with A scan ultrasonic monitoring of corrosion growth, provides a cost effective accurate system for the determination of plant integrity.
