Multi-Sensor Acoustic Pipe Leak Detector
GETTING
STARTED:
1. Preparation:
For detecting a pipe leak in an outdoor environment:
a. Confirm that a pipe leak is in fact present. This can be done by tracking water loss
via a water main/water meter. Unexplained water puddles also indicate a possible
burst within a pipeline.
Note:
A water main/water meter test can only be accurately performed when there
is no water use within the property. This means shutting off all indoor and outdoor
water-consuming appliances such as taps, toilets, showers, washing machine,
irrigation system. If the water meter continues to tick over, a leak is present.
b. Search and check for any unknown water flow around the pipe well.
c. Check for any land subsidence around the pipeline.
d. Use the medium or large outdoor sensor to check the value of any abnormal leak
sounds below ground of the suspected areas of concern.
e. Use architectural plumbing layout plans to identify where a pipeline may run.
Otherwise, a "Pipe locator" may be used to find the direction of the pipeline if the
direction is unknown.
For indoor detection of pipe leakage:
a. Confirm that a pipe leak is in fact present. This can be done by tracking water loss
via a water main/water meter. Unexplained water puddles also indicate a possible
burst within a pipeline. Otherwise, conduct a pipeline pressure holding test with a
manual water pressure tester.
b. If the pipeline's direction is unknown, a thermal imaging camera can be used to
determine the direction of the pipeline (this is optional – although especially
useful when a hot-water line has burst).
