Pipeline pig location system
500 - 2000 m/s | MINISONIC PSD ULTRAFLUX

Minisonic PSD (Pig * Sphere Detector) permits the detection of the passage of spheres and pigs in a pipeline.

This detection is made by the analysis of the acoustic signal.
An external probe is used for liquids and an intrusive probe for gas.

* a Pig is scrapper or a separating sphere

Advantages

- pig and sphere detector, even at high velocity
- detection of sphere even if joined
- detection independant of the flow direction
- the probe can be burried
- easy installation without cutting the pipe
- no servicing
- no pressure drop
- no moving parts
- no constraint of right length or of probe place
- Fast response time
- no recalibration
- cost independant of the pipe diameter
