Leaking valves are a major safety risk and a significant source of lost profit. Instead of long measurement campaigns with conventional methods or instruments, our on-site acoustic emission leak detection service tests all your valves and reports whether they leak and by how much. From this report we list the valves that need maintenance or replacement.
- Fast and accurate detection of leaks in isolation, control and safety valves and steam traps
- Easy detection of product losses
- Detection of leaks as low as 0.1 litres per minute
- Reference measurements of valve performance during commissioning
- Quantifying leak rates and their cost for oil, gas, condensate, water, steam, compressed air and process chemicals
- Data storage and analysis in the field with a PDA
- A proven valve monitoring technology with a track record of more than 20 years, used by major companies in oil and gas, petrochemical, power and process industries worldwide
- Moves maintenance from reactive to proactive and predictive, through condition-based monitoring, measurement and assessment
- An excellent tool for hydrocarbon leak detection programmes: acoustic leak detection and quantification is accepted by the US EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program as a best available monitoring method
- Identifies problem valves and so helps prevent unexpected, unplanned shutdowns
- Lower operating costs
- Higher profitability
- Fewer losses
- Optimised process efficiency
- Optimised reliability and equipment availability
- Greater safety
- Lower environmental risks
- The device and PDA are safe for use in hazardous oil and gas areas
- Fully portable and easy to use
- No installation or intrusion into the existing system, so no process safety issues
- Integrated display for stand-alone use
- Bluetooth communication from sensor to PDA
- PDA for data logging and analysis
- Data download and transfer
- Detects leaks as low as 0.1 litres per minute
- Intrinsically safe, explosion-proof version
