The UK’s most efficient leak detection system

Underground pipeline leaks are notoriously hard to find. They can disrupt or close site operations, damage the environment and cause serious financial loss. So it’s important to detect leaks fast, to save money and avoid unnecessary 'dig ups'.

LeakTech from E&S is a hydrogen-based system that provides a safe and highly efficient solution to all leak detection scenarios. Faster and more accurate, it’s a completely self-contained field-based system and the most sensitive and flexible on the market.

Sensitivity and accuracy

LeakTech is completely selective, only reacting to hydrogen gas which in very low, non-inflammable concentrations is used as tracer gas. The non-toxic molecules are so small they can be detected through materials as dense as concrete, and they vent easily leaving no risk of corrosion or harm to the environment.

The LeakTech hydrogen sensor in combination with advanced computing electronics, results in an unsurpassed sensitivity threshold of 200 ppb (0.2 ppm). This extreme level of sensitivity is necessary to quickly detect even the smallest leaks.

Multiple applications

LeakTech is the ideal leak-detection solution for:

• Petrol retail sites and bulk fuel depots - where heavy traffic and loading gantries expose pipes to stress
• Gas pipelines - where high sensitivity and pinpoint accuracy is critical
• Heating systems - removing the need to break open entire floor beds
• Water pipes - whether ‘live’ or emptied
