SEWER
EVALUATION
SSES tool for
Laterals,
Mains and Interceptors
- Detects
all types of pipe defects that are potential leaks including joints,
cracks and service
connections.
- Locates
leaks within inches.
- Continuous
testing along pipe at any time of year.
- Assessment
of pipe defect size.
- Determines
type of defect - joint,
service connection, cracks.
RAPID
COVERAGE AND LOW COST
Target
and prioritize problem areas in the quickest time for the lowest cost
- Typically
test 3000 ft per day using regular maintenance staff.
- NO
pipe
preparation or disruption to sewer operation.
- Immediate
results.
- Integrate
with sewer jet cleaning
maintenance operations
|
SIMPLE
AND ACCURATE
Obtain
relevant and quantitative data continuously along pipes.
- Output
is a plot of electric current flow between a fixed surface electrode
and
an
in-pipe focused electrode (sonde) as it is pulled through sewer pipe.
- Current
flow occurs when sonde passes pipe defect.
- Amplitude
of current correlates with defect size.
- Measurement
rate: 30 ft/min
- Resolution
accuracy: +/- 1 inch
- Tests
3
to 60 inch diameter, reinforced concrete, clay, brick, plastic, plastic
lined
steel etc.
RELIABLE
AND REPEATABLE
Effective
QA/QC for pipe line projects
- Straightforward
operation and interpretation.
- Test
new pipes and effectiveness of remediation.
- Periodic
monitoring for changing pipe conditions
