Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for a method for measuring or monitoring localized corrosion in which an electrochemical noise (ECN) signal is sensed and filtered by a high-pass or band-pass filter to remove low frequency components not related to localized corrosion and a standard deviation of the filtered signal is computed and scaled to provide a localized corrosion value.

Abstract: Low power corrosion measurement devices are described with programmable configuration for implementing one or more advanced corrosion measurement types to provide conductivity, general corrosion, and/or localized corrosion values in a field transmitter for online corrosion monitoring or off-line corrosion data logging.

Abstract: A surface mounting corrosion probe comprising a frame adapted for securing to a surface of a reinforced concrete structure, and a resilient pad arranged such that when the frame is secured to such a structure a front surface of the pad is pressed against the structure surface. A reference electrode is located centrally relative to the front surface of the pad so as to contact the surface of any structure against which the pad is pressed. An annular portion of the front surface of the pad which extends radially outwards from the center towards adjacent the periphery of the pad is electrically conductive, and a terminal is provided which is electrically connected to that annular portion. Corrosion monitoring instruments are connected to the terminal and the reference electrode to monitor corrosion of reinforcement beneath the surface of a structure to which the frame is secured.

Abstract: In an apparatus or installation having a metal part corroding in an electrolyte contacting the part, that part is a first electrode electrically insulated from a second electrode, for example another part of the apparatus, also contacting the electrolyte. No external electrical power is applied to the electrodes/electrolyte system. The low frequency voltage between the electrodes is observed. This voltage is a low frequency noise signal. Amplitude values of the signal are measured and subjected to an averaging computation yielding data indicating the corrosion rate of the first electrode and the nature of the corrosion.
