The latest
SL-5028ACVG alternating current potential gradient detector made by Jiangsu
Shengli is improved and updated based on the technology of body capacitance
method (Pearson), which solves the problems of poor detection effects and low
accuracy encountered by body capacitance method (Pearson) in special
environments. The performance of ACVG is identical to the test results of DCVG
detector.
【Brief introduction
to ACVG technology 】
The ACVG
alternating current potential gradient detector is made up of three parts: ACVG
potential gradient detector, ultralow frequency (close to DC signal)
transmitter, and pipe locator. When the ultralow frequency signal (CP) which is
close to DC signal is loaded onto the pipelines, the corresponding electric
field distribution is established on the ground above the pipeline through the
voltage gradient constituted by the damaged points of pipeline anti-corrosive coating
and soil. At the location close to the damaged points, the voltage gradient is
larger, and thus the current density on the ground above the pipeline is
larger. Generally, the larger the exposed area is, the larger the current
density nearby and the ground voltage gradient are. The pipe locator detects
the location of the pipeline and keeps the ACVG detector on the pipeline,
having the ACVG detector determine the damage severity and the accurate position
of pipelines through measuring the potential gradient (dB) above the pipeline
and the current direction in the soil (CP).
【Technical
characteristics of ACVG technology】
■ Provision of complete information in terms of quantitative
detection for anti-corrosive coatings;
■ Provision of a basis for maintenance work via assessing the
severity of damaged points on coating;
■ Accurate location of damaged points on outer coatings;
■ Accurate location of the anode ground bed, with higher
sensitivity and accuracy.
■ Analysis of the damage condition on coatings based on the
attenuation trend of ACVG signal amplitude gradient
■ High location accuracy (within 10 centimeters) at the damaged
position on the pipeline coating, testing indication easy to read, easy for
operation
■ One of the most precise technologies for coating detection
■ Able to be applied to the pipelines under urban streets,
across rivers (swamps) and below high-voltage lines
■ Able to be used to test the buried pipelines under concrete
and bituminous pavement
■ Able to test complicated pipe networks, e.g., urban pipe
networks, factory and oil storage.
■ Able to test the buried pipelines adjacent to urban railway,
DC having no influence on ACVG technology
