The QYSEA Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge (UTG) is a professional non-destructive testing (NDT) payload engineered for QYSEA commercial ROVs. Mounted to the FIFISH PRO W6, E-Series, or X1, it enables operators to precisely measure metal wall thickness and detect internal corrosion on submerged structures — ship hulls, offshore platforms, subsea pipelines, and marine infrastructure — without dry docking, physical intervention, or taking assets out of service.
What It Does
The UTG transmits ultrasonic pulses through metal surfaces and measures the time-of-flight return to calculate wall thickness from a single side of the structure. This makes it possible to assess corrosion, erosion, and material loss on submerged assets in real time, directly from the ROV — delivering inspection data that would otherwise require costly and time-consuming dry dock operations.
Key Capabilities
- Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Measures metal wall thickness and detects internal corrosion without cutting, drilling, or removing coatings.
- Single-Side Access: No need to access both sides of the structure — measurements are taken from the exterior surface only.
- Compatible ROVs: FIFISH PRO W6, FIFISH E-Series, FIFISH X1
- Target Applications: Ship hull inspections, offshore platform structural assessments, subsea pipeline integrity, port and harbor infrastructure surveys
- Eliminates Dry Docking: Conduct full thickness surveys on active, in-water assets — reducing downtime and inspection costs significantly.
