Developed by RSL the SCUMPI System is a completely Self Contained Underwater Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) System. Safety features such as the 12 volt Lamp and an Electromagnet are carried over from the RSL Umbilical System. The Ink Bag features an enclosed pump for operation and ink agitation yet can be changed out on site in a couple of minutes.
The system has been specifically developed for work on RIB’s or where electrical isolation poses a problem. With a continuous operating time of 5 to 6 hours and an Ink capacity of 9 litres, the RSL SCUMPI System will be capable of performing extended Magnetic Particle Inspection compared to other non-umbilical methods.
The Carrier Frame is made of a lightweight tubular construction serving two functions. Firstly keeping the whole system together as a compact module and secondly providing protection for the subsea Power Pod, Ink Bag and Light during deployment or cross hauling through a structure. The lifting point is Dye Penetrant inspected and issued with a certificate.
