SAND PROBE

Sand
Probes
are used when it’s necessary to detect the Erosion-Corrosion phenomena.
Whenever a corrosive environment contains solid particles that might impinge
onto the metal surface, the protective corrosion product layers or oxides can
be thinned or removed increasing greatly the corrosion rate.
The
Sensing Element of the probe is a thin walled tube, closed at one end and
welded to the Probe Body at the other end connected to a pressure sensing
device.
Normally
the best location for these kind of Probes is into the highest speed streams
or in the turbulence zones.
