Leak Detection Technology - Tracer Gas

Leak Detection Technology:

Tracer Gas

Tracer gas leak detection involves injecting a specific gas consisting of hydrogen and nitrogen into a pipeline. The escaping gas rises to the surface and is detected with sensitive gas detectors to pinpoint the location of the leak.

How It Works

The pipe is emptied of any liquids or gases and sealed off to ensure controlled testing conditions.

A non-toxic tracer gas is then injected under controlled pressure, allowing the gas to escape through any cracks, joints or leak openings.

A highly sensitive gas detector scans the surface area above the pipeline, identifying areas of elevated gas concentration to accurately pinpoint the exact leak location.

Key Benefits



Non-Invasive & Non-destructive method



High sensitivity can detect Micro-leaks



Versatile for water pipes, gas lines & more



Early detection Prevents Damage

Tracer gas leak detection provides an effective way to detect even the smallest of cracks, holes or leaks in a pipe.

Why Professional Expertise Matters

Tracer gas testing requires controlled systems, correct gas concentration and careful surface scanning. A skilled professional ensures safety compliance and accurate gas concentration interpretation.

Improper handling can produce inconclusive or misleading results.

Testimonials

Industrial Fireline - Jebel Ali

“Our plant requires constant protection against fire, but our jockey pump had been unable to maintain pressure and was constantly on so we called LeakDtech Dubai and they found the location of the underground leak very quickly.”

Leaking Industrial Fireline

Swimming Pool – Arabian Ranches

“The LeakDtech engineer came over very quickly and found our main water leak problem within 30 minutes immediately lowering our bills and then found a secondary leak in our skimmer line again saving even more money…..amazing!!!”

Swimming Pool Leak

Domestic Water Leaks – Jebal Ali

“Our cement factory was getting old but we could not loose any time to our operation by taking the road up so we called in LeakDtech who found 2 leaks in our domestic water pipe and fire lines each in a day. Amazing technology and staff, saved us a huge amount of money.”

Broken Pipe

Petrochemical Pipeline Leaks – UAE

“Our Molsieve and transmission lines were suspect and needed to be inspected so we called in LeakDtech on a 3 week contract to inspect all our lines, valves, heaters and towers and their report was extremely detailed and accepted by our auditors for another year.”

Thermal Leakage

Food Court – Deira

“We had suffered from a leak for 8 years which had spread across our entire building and we were never able to locate the leak source and only dealt with side effects of leakage. LeakDtech found the leak source within 2 days and allowed us to finally rectify the situation.”

Drainage Line Leakage

Mall Leak – Dubai Marina

Our underground parking was leaking down on to visitor cars so we knew we had a huge problem and LeakDtech helped us identify the source from a ground floor kitchen that needed maintenance.”
