Patented
Navigation
The SR-3 uses patented navigation to deliver corrosion readings within a six inch radius of location and position the robot’s phased array ultrasonic probe for access into the tank’s critical zone.
Robust Corrosion
Detection
Square Robot conducted a multi year study to answer the question of defect detection capabilities. Our PAUT system surpassed API 653 Annex G sizing expectations, reaching 99.6 percent confidence. Learn more here.
Certified
Inspections & Reports
Square Robot's experienced team of experts sets the standards for compliant API 653, EEMUA 159 and subsequent Extreme Value Analysis reports following both API 581 and EMMUA 247 standards.

Inspection ROI:
The Square Robot Advantage
When tanks stay online during inspection, the financial impact is significant. Square Robot's on-stream robotic inspection eliminates downtime costs, reduces confined space labor, and delivers superior data; turning inspection from a liability into a competitive advantage.
Eliminate
Downtime Costs
On-stream inspections keep tanks in full service throughout the process. Whether inspecting while the tank is static or flowing, tank owners have continuous production revenue while staying in compliance.
Reduce
Total Inspection Costs
By eliminating the need to take the tank offline for inspection, robotic inspection eliminates costs associated with product removal and cleaning, waste disposal and degassing- dramatically reducing the total cost of each inspection program.
Protect
Asset Integrity
High density data sets give operators a clear and comprehensive picture of their tank's integrity, supporting proactive maintenance decisions before small issues become costly failures.
Improve
Maintenance Planning
Comprehensive, digitzied inspection reports allow asset owners to move from reactive maintenance to strategic, risk-based asset management across their entire tank portfolio.

From understanding benefits and cost savings to planning your first inspection, explore key answers that help you make decisions.
Yes. SR-3 inspections are designed to support API 653 requirements for internal inspection of aboveground storage tanks, with structured data capture and reporting aligned to regulatory expectations.
Traditional inspections require tanks to be taken out of service, emptied, cleaned, purged, and inspected manually. On-stream inspection with the SR-3 does all of this while the tank stays online, eliminating shutdown costs and confined space risk simultaneously.
The SR-3 is engineered for internal inspection of aboveground storage tanks while they remain in service, including tanks used in refining, terminals, and related applications.
