Perform Small Controlled Area Radiography (SCAR) radiographic inspections in close proximity to other trades, nucleonic process control equipment, and critical safety systems, such as visual flame detectors, to minimize the impact of RT on continuing operations or outage schedules.
With the SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro, you can obtain up to 98% reduction in exclusion zones compared to conventional radiography techniques.
Designed, tested, and manufactured to the requirements of ANSI N432-1980, ISO 3999:2004(E), IAEA TS-R-1 (2009), IAEA SSR-6 (2012), USNRC 10CFR34, USNRC 10CFR71, and USDOT 49CFR173.
[:es]Realice inspecciones radiográficas de radiografía de área controlada pequeña (SCAR) en las proximidades de otros oficios, equipos de control de procesos nucleónicos y sistemas de seguridad críticos, como detectores de llamas visuales, para minimizar el impacto de la RT en las operaciones continuas o los horarios de interrupción.
Con el SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro, puede obtener hasta un 98% de reducción en las zonas de exclusión en comparación con las técnicas de radiografía convencionales.
Diseñado, probado y fabricado según los requisitos de ANSI N432-1980, ISO 3999: 2004 (E), IAEA TS-R-1 (2009), IAEA SSR-6 (2012), USNRC 10CFR34, USNRC 10CFR71 y USDOT 49CFR173 .
Minimize Exclusion Zones
With the SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro, you can obtain up to 98% reduction in exclusion zones compared to conventional radiography techniques.
Utilizing FlexShield radiation blankets, guide tube shields, and scatter shields with proper technique, you can achieve exclusion zones as small as 3 to 6 feet (1 to 2 meters) for demanding applications or 10 to 15 feet (3 to 5 meters) for typical applications required by clients to realize the SCAR value.
QSA Global, Inc.’s sales team and local distributors provide custom-tailored solutions to help your clients maximize turnaround efficiency, eliminate interference from radiographic testing on nucleonic process control gauges, and meet exclusion zone requirements.
SCAR Production: Turnarounds & Outages
During turnarounds and outages, traditional gamma radiography is either performed in shooting windows totaling only 1-2 hours in a 12-hour shift or other trades such as welders and electricians must be cleared from the exclusion zone while radiography is performed.
The SCAR Radiography technique utilizing the SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro eliminates the need for shooting windows or impacting other trades. The SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro enables continuous 24/7 gamma radiography inspections maximizing inspection productivity and accelerating your turnaround.
Nucleonic Gauges & Safety Systems
Gamma rays, x-rays, and scatter radiation from radiographic testing can interfere with nucleonic process control gauges and critical safety systems such as visual flame detectors (VFDs) commonly found in oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and power plants. Nucleonic gauges utilize radiation in myriad process control applications including measuring process fluid density, locating phase interfaces, and level switches. UV VFDs detect UV radiation from fires and can trigger fire suppression systems. These systems often cannot differentiate the radiation they are designed to detect from radiation resulting from radiographic testing. As a result, critical processes may need to be manually monitored, operated without real-time process information, or shut down entirely while traditional radiographic testing (RT) is being performed.
The SCAR radiography technique allows you to perform RT in close proximity to these sensor systems without risking interfering with process measurements or generating false alarms in critical safety systems.

Minimizar las zonas de exclusión
Con el SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro, puede obtener hasta un 98% de reducción en las zonas de exclusión en comparación con las técnicas de radiografía convencionales.
Utilizando mantas de radiación FlexShield, protectores de tubo guía y protectores de dispersión con la técnica adecuada, puede lograr zonas de exclusión tan pequeñas como de 3 a 6 pies (1 a 2 metros) para aplicaciones exigentes o de 10 a 15 pies (3 a 5 metros) para aplicaciones típicas. aplicaciones requeridas por los clientes para darse cuenta del valor de SCAR.
El equipo de ventas y los distribuidores locales de QSA Global, Inc. brindan soluciones personalizadas para ayudar a sus clientes a maximizar la eficiencia de respuesta, eliminar la interferencia de las pruebas radiográficas en los medidores de control de procesos nucleónicos y cumplir con los requisitos de la zona de exclusión.
Producción de SCAR: cambios y cortes
Durante los cambios y las interrupciones, la radiografía gamma tradicional se realiza en ventanas de disparo que suman un total de solo 1-2 horas en un turno de 12 horas u otros oficios, como soldadores y electricistas, deben salir de la zona de exclusión mientras se realiza la radiografía.
La técnica de radiografía SCAR que utiliza el SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro elimina la necesidad de disparar ventanas o impactar otros oficios. El SENTINEL 1075 SCARPro permite inspecciones de radiografía gamma continuas las 24 horas del día, los 7 días de la semana, lo que maximiza la productividad de la inspección y acelera su tiempo de respuesta.
Medidores nucleónicos y sistemas de seguridad
Los rayos gamma, los rayos X y la radiación dispersa de las pruebas radiográficas pueden interferir con los medidores de control de procesos nucleónicos y los sistemas de seguridad críticos, como los detectores visuales de llamas (VFD) que se encuentran comúnmente en refinerías de petróleo, plantas petroquímicas y centrales eléctricas. Los medidores nucleónicos utilizan radiación en innumerables aplicaciones de control de procesos, incluida la medición de la densidad del fluido del proceso, la localización de interfaces de fase e interruptores de nivel. Los VFD UV detectan la radiación UV de los incendios y pueden activar sistemas de extinción de incendios. Estos sistemas a menudo no pueden diferenciar la radiación para la que están diseñados para detectar de la radiación resultante de las pruebas radiográficas. Como resultado, los procesos críticos pueden necesitar ser monitoreados manualmente, operados sin información de proceso en tiempo real o apagados por completo mientras se realizan las pruebas radiográficas tradicionales (RT).
La técnica de radiografía SCAR le permite realizar RT muy cerca de estos sistemas de sensores sin correr el riesgo de interferir con las mediciones del proceso o generar falsas alarmas en sistemas de seguridad críticos.
