ROSEN TBIT Ultra - API RP 575
This is a major milestone for the industry. Historically, standards like API 653 and EEMUA 159 focused only on detection, leaving sizing to manual ultrasonic verification; a process that meant longer downtime, more labor, and increased exposure in confined spaces.
The new RP 575 changes that. It formally recognizes ๐ ๐ฎ๐ด๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฐ ๐๐น๐๐
๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ (๐ ๐๐) technology as capable of quantitative sizing, not just detection.

Collaborating with the API - American Petroleum Institute, we first helped drive updates in ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ฏ ๐๐ป๐ป๐ฒ๐ ๐ (Qualification of Tank Bottom Examination Procedures and Personnel), introducing clear performance criteria: ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐น๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐, ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป (๐ฃ๐ข๐) ๐๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฒ๐, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ผ๐น๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ for hashtag#tankfloor scanners. Our database for these criteria has been built up since 1997 and keeps growing continuously, further emphasizing their significance.
While most tools primarily focused on detection, ๐ฅ๐ข๐ฆ๐๐กโ๐ ๐ง๐๐๐ง ๐จ๐น๐๐ฟ๐ฎ, delivers quantitative sizing aligned with these factors. This is possible thanks to constant exchange between the system and customer data, which enables us to improve the process continuously.
Our ๐ง๐๐๐ง ๐จ๐น๐๐ฟ๐ฎ service combines MFL and Eddy Current (EC) to detect and automatically size metal loss defects in tank floors, meeting API RP 575 requirements and enabling safer, faster, and more reliable inspections.
