MISTRAS offers asset condition-monitoring solutions for high-value assets in high-temperature, hazardous, and hard-to-reach locations, enabling our clients to stay informed of corrosion, leaks, electrical faults, cracking, and more before they worsen.
Inspecting your assets on a regular basis is important, but ensuring the lasting integrity for your assets is impossible without being completely informed of their condition at all times. Implementing a monitoring solution is integral for the safety, health, and performance of any facility.
MISTRAS offers condition-monitoring and tracking solutions for assets in the oil & gas, infrastructure, power generation, manufacturing, and aerospace industries.
Our certified technicians install non-intrusive monitoring systems & sensors tailored to the individual needs of your facility. Our monitoring equipment integrates with plant data management software, so owners can receive complete condition assessments in real-time.
Our ultrasonic (UT) and acoustic emission (AE) monitoring equipment is industry-proven to detect and locate defects as soon as they occur, enhancing safety and enabling optimized planning, repairs, and maintenance spending.
Assets that MISTRAS Monitors
MISTRAS monitors many assets to provide consistent condition assessments that help ensure their long-term health, including:
Our on-line monitoring provides data for the accurate reporting and precise analysis of your asset’s operating conditions, along with data trending, management, and storage.
Gathering this information for historical tracking can be effective in observing asset behavior over time, along with telling you when and where maintenance is necessary, and reducing the risk of equipment failure or shutdown. Monitoring with MISTRAS minimizes damage with early, real-time defect detection and location.
Asset Condition-Monitoring Benefits
Small defects that go undetected in between scheduled inspections can quickly magnify into serious safety concerns for equipment and personnel.
Our remote monitoring capabilities enable our clients to stay informed of their asset’s condition in even the high-temperature and hard-to-reach assets that often get overlooked in traditional inspections because of the hazards associated with accessing them.
Unattended monitoring also standardizes data reporting. Rather than disparate inspectors manually inputting individual data points into data management software, monitoring software provides consistent, standardized data and trending.
Flexible Pricing for Monitoring Systems
It is imperative that plant owners and operators constantly remain aware of their asset’s conditions, but purchasing inspection and monitoring equipment can have high up-front costs.
MISTRAS offers a hardware-as-a-service (HaaS) model to make budget-friendly asset monitoring a reality. The HaaS model allows clients to reduce short-term costs by spreading out a purchase over an extended period, as well as long -term spending by reducing potential damages that would not have been detected without asset monitoring.
After a monitoring system is installed on-site at a customer’s facility, MISTRAS technicians remotely monitor the data and alert plant personnel when changes may indicate a problem. This method reduces the need to send techs into hard-to-access plant areas for inspections. Maintenance and light mechanical services are performed throughout the length of the contract, ensuring the system is performing as intended.
Clients can choose between a range of contract length options, depending on individual needs. Beyond having a reduced upfront cost, the HaaS models ensures that clients always know their annual fee cost, avoiding unexpected fees. If an arrangement needs to be extended or the client is working towards a full purchase, MISTRAS works with the customer to reach an agreement.
In addition to the HaaS option, MISTRAS also works with our clients to supply rental monitoring equipment and smaller systems, ensuring that they remain aware of their asset's conditions within their budgets.
