Abstrakt: The paper deals with residual serviceability of pipelines that are used for water supply and water drainage to/from the energy sector. During maintenance, some excessively corroded segments were observed. Using mobile microscopy, the material of these segments was analyzed on-site, and samples were taken from the pipeline for further microstructure analysis and mechanical properties in the laboratory. The sampling device is specifically designed to draw a small amount of experimental material (approx. 20 x 20 x 3 mm) from the operating components, and since it leaves only a small cavity on site, it is usually possible to continue operating components without repair. To evaluate the mechanical properties of the collected material, it was necessary to use newly developed tests on miniature bodies.
