Abstract: A remote control and monitoring apparatus for heat-treatment equipment, including heating elements installed on a workpiece at a work site to perform a heat-treatment operation, has a data acquisition and control unit, a heat-treatment unit, a communication bridge, and a control center, to permit the heat-treatment equipment installed at the work site to be controlled and monitored at a distant control facility.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provide for remote control, monitoring and/or servicing of heat-treatment equipment via wireless communications networks. Specifically, the method and apparatus can be used in pre and post-weld heat-treatment applications for steel pipes in a variety of industries, including, but not limited to, power plants, chemical and petrochemical plants and refineries. Importantly, the embodiment generates and manages all the documentation necessary to input and verify the specified heat-treatment process. It will produce and deliver to the customer the reports and certificates required by the applicable quality control standards, requirements and regulatory authorities.
