Asset Integrity / Corrosion Control Application

Corrosion Monitoring

Corrosion monitoring combines pH, ORP, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, humidity, temperature, pressure, and leak-related signals to understand how quickly metal, piping, tanks, and equipment are degrading. It helps industries protect assets, extend service life, and reduce maintenance and replacement cost.

What Is Corrosion Monitoring?

Corrosion monitoring is the continuous observation of environmental and process conditions that accelerate material degradation. It helps teams understand whether pipes, tanks, structures, and equipment are entering a higher-risk corrosion state so action can be taken before leaks or failure occur.

1

Asset operates

Pipes, tanks, vessels, or structures are exposed to service conditions.

2

Sensors observe

Chemical, moisture, and temperature signals are tracked.

3

Risk analyzed

Corrosive conditions, leak risk, and degradation patterns become visible.

4

Action triggered

Inspection, coating, treatment, or replacement planning begins.

Primary Signals Used

Corrosion risk is best understood by combining chemistry, moisture, and condition signals together.

pH Shows acidity or alkalinity and corrosion tendency.
ORP Shows oxidation strength and chemical aggression.
Conductivity / TDS Shows ionic content and conductive corrosion risk.
Dissolved Oxygen Shows oxidation and accelerated corrosion potential.
Humidity / Temperature Shows condensation and environmental corrosion risk.
Pressure / Leakage Shows stress, leaks, and structural deterioration.

Why It Matters

Corrosion silently reduces asset life and can lead to leaks, contamination, and expensive unplanned replacement.

Operational Value
  • Extends piping and equipment service life
  • Reduces leaks, breakdowns, and shutdown risk
  • Improves maintenance and coating planning
  • Supports asset integrity and reliability programs
Failure Clues
  • Persistent low pH or high conductivity
  • Humidity and condensation around assets
  • Rising leak rate or wall-thinning symptoms
  • Repeated chemical or oxidation stress

Industries That Need This Application

Corrosion monitoring is essential wherever metal, water, chemicals, or harsh environments can shorten asset life.

Oil & GasPipelines, tanks, and structures face severe corrosion risk.
Water / WastewaterWet environments accelerate degradation and leakage.
Chemical PlantsCorrosive media and vapors require constant watch.
Power PlantsBoilers, cooling systems, and piping need protection.
ManufacturingUtilities and process assets require longer life.
Infrastructure / ESGAsset life, sustainability, and risk reduction matter.

Hexitronics Industrial IoT Integration

Corrosion monitoring is a highly strategic application because it protects hidden assets, extends service life, and connects chemistry, environment, and maintenance into one practical view.
