ABOUT
IPOZ LDS4 Inertial Module is a mapping module used in In-Line Pipeline Inspections (ILI) based on Inertial Navigation technology. The LDS4 is an in-line mapping solution module developed from knowledge gained with the highly successful IPOZ SM2®. The tool is non- ITAR controlled and has a self-contained rechargeable battery pack that provides 96 hours of running time. With this new design, the IPOZ team intends to expand its IMU mapping hardware and data processing offerings to pigging service companies wanting to offer 4” mapping capabilities to their clients.
By design the IPOZ LDS4 ILI module can operate in the most extreme pigging situations including high pressure, velocity and temperatures, and is meant to flow inside the pig, with the pipeline product usually.
LDS4 ILI Kit is perfect for
Capturing Pipeline Pig Inspection anomaly data
Mapping pipelines onshore and offshore
Offshore Out of Straightness surveys (OOS)
