Non-destructive sensitization testing that doesn't slow down your operations. Element's on-site EPR measurements and DoS testing deliver faster, more accurate results right at your facility. Avoid costly downtime and get comprehensive sensitization analysis for your austenitic stainless steel equipment without the wait for laboratory results. Our proven DL-EPR testing methodology combines speed with precision for chemical and petrochemical facilities.
What is On-Site EPR Measurements - DoS Testing Services at Element?
On-site EPR measurements and DoS testing evaluate the degree of sensitization in materials using non-destructive methods. At Element, we utilize the Double Loop Electrochemical Potentiokinetic Reactivation (DL-EPR) test method to assess susceptibility to intergranular corrosion and polythionic acid stress corrosion cracking. Our testing is performed directly at your facility, providing rapid results without material destruction.
