What is Leak Detection?
Leak detection is a process used to identify and locate leaks in pipes, tanks, and other containers. It involves using various techniques such as ultrasonic testing, magnetic field testing, and visual inspections to detect even the smallest leaks.
Benefits of Leak Detection
- Prevents costly damage to equipment and infrastructure
- Saves time and money in maintenance and repair
- Aids in identifying potential safety hazards
Types of Leak Detection Tools
Ultrasonic leak detectors are commonly used for detecting leaks in pipes, while magnetic field testers are used to detect leaks in tanks and other containers.
Visual inspections using a magnifying glass or other tools can also be effective.
