Damage Prevention and Mitigation -- Leak Detection

The detector is a vehicle-mounted instrument used to detect, grade and map gas leaks along underground pipelines. The survey bas includes an IR transmitter and receiver for natural gas detection. The display unit in the vehicle provides the gas concentration, GPS location and the detection level alarms.

The VMD increases the efficiency and accuracy of mobile methane leak surveys, using an open path infrared absorption spectroscopy.

Increased Safety - Leak survey of belowground gas pipeline systems provides an indication of pipeline damage. The detection initiates the utilities response for inspection, repair, and replacement before further catastrophic consequences occurs.

Greater Reliability - The VMD improves the efficiency and speed of leak surveys through mobile monitoring.
