The best handheld for your power plant application
SciAps introduced the world's first handheld LIBS to be a "full service" power industry analyzer, for alloy, weld chemistry, and grade verification using laser based analysis with no X-ray licensing or regulatory burdens. Now in use globally, the Z-902 Carbon is a dedicated NDT/PMI analyzer for applications in a wide range of alloys and alloy bases – including flow-accelerated corrosion and carbon content in steels and stainless, even L grades.
PPIM
Our handheld LIBS analyzers have revolutionized pipeline testing for carbon content and carbon equivalents, providing faster, better more comprehensive materials analysis in the ditch or anywhere in the world. SciAps Pipeline App automates the testing procedure for carbon and CE in pipeline steels and welds, to reduce operator error. Designed for the PHMSA "Mega Rule."
