Leak Detection Technology:
Acoustic Leak Detection
Acoustic leak detection uses specialised microphones or listening devices to capture the sound of a leak. By listening carefully and analysing vibrations, the location of a water leak can be pinpointed with precision, especially in underground or complex pipe systems.
This non-invasive and non-destructive technique is highly accurate.
How It Works
When pressurised liquid or gas escapes from a pipe, a high-frequency noise or vibration escapes from the pipe.
Technicians place a highly sensitive ground microphone or listening stick underground to locate the leak. Acoustic correlators compare sound signals between two sensor points, filtering out background noise digitally.
Finally, the leak location is calculated based on sound intensity and time delay.
Key Benefits
Non-Invasive & Non-destructive method
Highly-accurate
Cost Savings & Minimal downtime
Early detection Prevents Damage
Acoustic leak detection provides a rapid and highly-accurate method for detecting hidden water, gas and HVAC leaks.
Why Professional Expertise Matters
Acoustic leak detection requires trained technicians who can identify the sound of the leak and differentiate it from ambient noise such as other water pipes, traffic, pumps and more.
Proper sensor placement, accurate equipment and correlation analysis are crucial to precise leak pinpointing. A reliable professional will provide an accurate and quick leak detection.
