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).
