PCM (PIPELINE CURRENT MAPPER)

• P.C.M. is used for efficient trouble shooting of cathodic protection on buried pipelines

• The PCM has been designed for the pipeline industry. It addresses problems associated with traditional methods of pipeline surveying by providing the following benefits:

• An accurate method of evaluating and mapping cathodic protection current losses.

• Current magnitude and direction measurements are made above surface without the need for connections to the ground or pipe.

• Near d.c. signal mirrors closely the Cathodic Protection current.

• For use in all weather and ground conditions.

• One man operation.

• Indication of fault magnitude, hence avoiding unnecessary and costly excavations.

• Accessory A-Frame for accurately pinpointing coating defects.

• High powered transmitter (150 watts) enables analysis from one transformer rectifier to the next -20 miles (32kms)

• Transmitter can be powered from CP transformer eliminating need for batteries.

• Internal data logging.

• RS232 interface allows uploading of data for graphical representation of records on site or in the office.

• GPS compatibility.
