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
