Leak detection is the process of identifying and locating leaks in a system or infrastructure, typically requiring specialized equipment and expertise. This can be crucial for various industries such as energy, construction, and transportation to prevent damage, environmental hazards, and financial losses.
The advantages of leak detection include reduced costs associated with repairing damages, minimization of waste, and improved safety protocols. It also enables proactive maintenance, reduces the likelihood of unexpected failures, and enhances overall system resilience.
Types of Leak Detection
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) | The use of TDS analyzers to detect and quantify dissolved substances in water, enabling early detection of leaks. |
| Ultrasonic Leak Detection | A non-invasive method using high-frequency sound waves to locate and measure air or gas leaks. |
| CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) Cameras | The use of CCTV cameras to monitor and track visual signs of leaks, such as water droplets on surfaces or unusual lighting patterns. |
