In addition to selling Cyl-Sonic Inspection systems, Nordco offers the following supplemental equipment and necessary operating system support, such as installation, training, and oversight services.

• System Set-Up and Operation Verification  A Nordco field technician will come to the customers’ specified location to provide the necessary technical guidance for installation and operation of the Cyl-Sonic inspection system.
• Calibration Cylinder Standards  Government regulations require the Cyl-Sonic ultrasonic systems to be standardized prior to conducting cylinder re-qualification. You are required to obtain and use calibration cylinder standards to ensure the system is properly standardized prior to testing.
• Operator Training  Your personnel are required to be trained, qualified, and certified in accordance with ASNT SNT-TC-1A per DOT requirements. You will receive the necessary training required (ASNT Level I and/or II), qualification, and certification to operate the Cyl-Sonic UE system in accordance with industry accepted practices prior to performing cylinder requalification. You are required to attend training at either the Nordco CT office or at a location of your choice.
• Licensure and Oversight  You will be permitted to perform UE under Nordco's approved USDOT (Special Permit DOT-SP 14920) as a licensee. Nordco's special permit DOT-SP 14920 permits UE and an external visual examination to be completed in lieu of hydrostatic testing in conjunction with internal/external visual examinations. Nordco's Senior Review Technologists (SRT) will set up, administer, and provide oversight of your UE operations.
