Innovative Rope Access Solutions for Nozzle Replacement Projects
Turner Industries’ mechanical rope access group performed a nozzle replacement inside a clarifier.
- 18” carbon steel nozzle was fitted to the fiber glass pipe coming into the clarifier 100 feet above ground level by a certified rope access fitter and then welded in place by a certified rope access welder.
- All work was performed safely under the supervision of a level III rope access technician.
- The job was inspected by Turner Specialty Services’ NDE group using phased-array technology and completed incident free in 50 hours – ahead of schedule and within budget.
Total cost savings for the client compared to conventional methods: $126,000.
