Abstract
A system, apparatus, and method of quickly inspecting tubes of chemical plants is provided, where one or more tube inspection apparatuses are used to simultaneously perform electromagnetic testing ('ET') of multiple tubes of a chemical plant by simultaneously lowering probes into separate tubes and transmitting the data to a processor. In some embodiments, the data from the probes can be transmitted in real or near-real time to a remote processor for analysis to determine whether any defects exist in the tubes and the extent of such defects.
