Many inspection technologies require intensive field work or service interruptions to evaluate the condition of water pipes. Even then, the results are often mediocre, only identifying active leaks or only providing an average status across an entire pipe segment. This situation makes it difficult to make confident decisions and implement prudent management strategies, so many compromised pipelines go unnoticed, waiting to cause service interruptions and costly emergency repairs. PipeSonic has a better way to evaluate water pipe conditions that is cost-effective, accurate, and non-invasive.

With PipeSonic’s pipeline integrity inspection technology, customers can get an idea of the condition of their pipelines with unprecedented accuracy. This state-of-the-art evaluation relies on noise correlators and a pulse generator to send a controlled signal through the pipeline and analyzes changes in the signal as it travels through the pipeline. Every irregularity, leaks, air pockets, material changes, obstructions, wall thickness, causes a specific signal distortion. Analysis of these distortions produces an extraordinarily clear representation of the condition and structural integrity of each pipe conduit, with superior accuracy.
