ABSTRACT:
A device and method is taught for detection of flaws and localized wall loss in pipes made of ferromagnetic-based material. The device utilizes a magnetic field generator to create a horizontal magnetic field of flux. A pipe is passed through the magnetic field where a magnetic fluctuation detector, for example multiple groups of hall units, identifies fluctuations in the magnetic field.
