Short-range CUI monitoring solution

29/10/2026

CorrosionRADAR has announced the launch of its CR:SR sensor solution. This new short-range sensor technology expands its corrosion under insulation (CUI) intelligence portfolio with an easy-to-install and cost-effective solution for applications that do not require the removal of insulation.

Industry studies estimate the global cost of corrosion exceeds $2.5 trillion annually (approximately £1.9 trillion) and CUI remains one of the most significant asset integrity threats facing industrial operators. Risk-based inspection programmes can require substantial time and expense despite many inspections finding little or no active corrosion. CorrosionRADAR is transforming the CUI challenge with intelligence-based analytics; saving time, improving uptime and reducing the risk of catastrophic failures.

As with all CorrosionRADAR CUI sensors, the new CR:SR solution passes monitoring data to the artificial intelligence (AI)-informed CR:Clarity software for consolidation, analysis and reporting. The launch strengthens CorrosionRADAR’s end-to-end CUI intelligence offering, giving operators proven options to understand where CUI risk is developing, how it is evolving and what action to take next.

The CR:SR sensor solution has been developed for targeted, localised (short-range) monitoring without the need to remove insulation. Working alongside CorrosionRADAR’s existing CR:LR solution, which delivers permanently installed, long-range monitoring across vessels, columns, tanks and other complex assets, the CR:SR sensor further expands the CUI monitoring toolbox available to integrity teams.

Together, the CR:LR and CR:SR sensors address the challenges of traditional inspection programmes by providing continuous visibility between inspection campaigns. CUI data is constantly collected and analysed by the CR:Clarity software, enabling operators to prioritise inspection activity based on changing risk conditions rather than fixed inspection intervals.

Remote sensor-enabled CUI monitoring programmes have demonstrated inspection scope reductions of up to 80%, helping operators focus resources on the locations that matter most while reducing unnecessary inspection costs and operational disruption.

The launch reinforces the company’s vision of transforming CUI management from a reactive inspection activity into a proactive, intelligence-led discipline powered by continuous monitoring, AI-informed analytics and corrosion expertise. By combining multiple monitoring strategies through a single source of CUI intelligence, CorrosionRADAR is helping operators move towards predictive, prescriptive and ultimately more autonomous asset integrity management.
