What is Leak Detection?
Leak detection is the process of identifying and locating leaks in various systems, including pipes, tanks, and equipment. It's a crucial step in preventing costly damage, maintaining efficiency, and ensuring safety.
- Pressure leaks: Leaks that occur due to excessive pressure or force
- Thermal expansion leaks: Leaks caused by temperature changes
- Flow leaks: Leaks due to fluid flow rate or velocity
- Acoustic monitoring: Using sound waves to detect and locate leaks
- Dye testing: Injecting dye into a system to visualize leaks
- Capillary leak testing: Using a specialized tool to measure fluid flow rates
