Fast. Accurate. Comprehensive Corrosion Detection.

What Is It

Magnetic Flux Leakage Testing for Tank Floors

Detect Hidden Corrosion Beneath Storage Tanks.

Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) is an advanced NDT technique used to inspect tank floors for corrosion and metal loss. The tank floor is magnetized, and areas with metal loss create changes in the magnetic field.

Sensitive sensors detect these changes and help identify damaged areas, providing fast, wide-area coverage for above-ground storage tanks.

Why MFL

Why Choose MFL?

Fast Coverage

Inspect large tank floor areas significantly faster than manual UT.

High Sensitivity

Detect pitting, corrosion, and wall thinning.

Minimal Preparation

Inspect many coated surfaces without extensive coating removal.

Visual Mapping

Generate digital maps showing defect locations and severity.

How It Works

Our MFL Inspection Method

01

Pre-Inspection Review

Review tank history, previous inspection data, and known corrosion areas.

02

Scanner Setup

Prepare and calibrate the MFL equipment.

03

Floor Scanning

Scan the tank floor systematically in a controlled grid pattern.

04

Data Analysis

Interpret magnetic signals to identify and assess metal loss.

05

Reporting

Deliver digital maps, defect locations, and inspection findings.
