Core offering

Designs and manufactures professional-grade GPS synchronized cathodic protection and pipeline integrity survey instruments, including the Hexcorder CIPS/DCVG survey instrument, GPS synchronized current interrupters, and GPS synchronized data loggers (Smart Logger, CorrReader, and dual-channel models) for pipeline operators and corrosion professionals worldwide. All instruments export data as standard .csv files compatible with Excel or any customer-chosen software, with no proprietary software required. Also provides on-site professional CIPS and DCVG training services at locations such as Chile, Jordan, and Argentina.

Product overview

Cathodic Technology Limited offers a unified portfolio of pipeline integrity survey instruments centered on the Hexcorder, a GPS synchronized survey instrument that performs CIPS, DCVG, or combined surveys. The Hexcorder is complemented by GPS synchronized current interrupters (both portable and rectifiers), and a complete range of GPS synchronized data loggers including the Smart Logger (for dynamic stray current/telluric interference) and CorrReader (for non-technical single-point surveys). The company also provides accessories, parts, and professional training services. All instruments export data as CSV files compatible with standard spreadsheet software.

Products and services

• Hexcorder Survey Instrument GPS synchronized survey instrument that performs close interval potential surveys (CIPS), direct current voltage gradient surveys (DCVG), or combined CIPS & DCVG overland pipeline surveys for pipeline operators and corrosion professionals. Identifies coating defects and assesses cathodic protection system performance, storing data as .csv files compatible with Excel or any customer-chosen software without proprietary software requirements.
• Smart Logger Data Logger GPS synchronized data logger that records dynamic stray current or telluric interference data on pipeline surveys, storing GPS time and location for each reading to support regulatory compliance documentation.
• CorrReader Data Logger Data logger designed for non-technical users to obtain valid cathodic protection data from single point surveys such as test stations or tank farms, satisfying regulatory compliance requirements. Stores GPS time and location for each reading.
• GPS Synchronized Current Interrupters GPS synchronized current interrupters available in both portable models and models for retrofit into rectifiers, capable of interrupting a range of amperages. Designed for use with the Cath-Tech survey instrument family to provide synchronized interruption cycles.
• Dual Channel GPS Data Loggers GPS synchronized data loggers with dual channel capability for comprehensive pipeline survey data collection.
• CIPS and DCVG Training Professional training services in CIPS and DCVG survey techniques as well as basic data analysis, provided on-site at customer facilities worldwide for pipeline operators and corrosion professionals.
