Positive material identification

We offer XRF and Libs for positive material identification when customer needs the service or when product history file (PHF) is lost for equipment to be able to assess the product and learn its carbon equivalency when there will be welding required.

XRF is used to analyze the limits of sulfur and phosphorus, while the LIBS is used to analyze the remainder of the elements including carbon.

Whats the difference? Why does it matter? When it comes to Blowout Preventer and other pressure control product repair, it is critical that both methods be available in order to identify conformity to API 16AR material composition requirements. API 16AR requires that the following elements be analyzed in order to meet the minimum requirements of RSL-1:
  • Copper (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Carbon (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Manganese (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Silicon (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Phosphorus (Can be determined by XRF)
  • Sulfur (Can be determined by XRF)
  • Nickel (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Chromium (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Molybdenum (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Vanadium (Can be determined by LIBS)
  • Boron (Can be determined by LIBS)
