Detect leaks in the water network early

Water utilities detect leaks in the pipe network

Hidden pipe bursts and creeping losses are noticed after days instead of months. The leak detection crew searches specifically in the anomalous metering zone instead of across the whole network.

Is this for you?

  • Your network is divided into metering zones with meters at the inlets, or you are planning this.
  • Water losses are noticeable, and you often do not know where they occur.
  • You can manage a project with network operations, IT security and data protection over several months and carry the deployer obligations for high-risk systems.
First step today

Export the minimum night flow of your metering zones for four weeks and replace zone names with codes such as Z1. Network plans, addresses and customer data stay out. Have the values checked with the template below. This tells you whether your measurement data shows an increase clearly.

How to go about it

  1. Define metering zones and the goal
  2. Measure flow, pressure and noise
  3. Have the system learn normal night consumption for each zone
  4. Set warning thresholds per zone
  5. Pass warnings to the control centre and the leak detection crew
  6. Evaluate finds and false alarms
