Water/Wastewater
Assess Pipes for Blockage in 3 Minutes or Less
Nov 06 2013
The Sewer Line Rapid Assessment Tool or SL-RAT from Infosense Inc (USA) provides a fast assessment of overall blockage conditions within gravity sewer pipe using a patented active acoustic technology. The technology exploits the fact that sound energy flows similarly to water through a pipe.
The SL-RAT “yells” in one manhole and “listens” in an adjacent manhole to provide an overall blockage assessment. The SL-RAT’s operating costs are typically 1/10th to 1/20th that of other cleaning or inspection technologies. Hence, providing a practical new tool to collection system operators for focusing their camera and cleaning efforts. Reduce your cleaning effort by over 50%.
Highly portable with ruggedised field-tested construction. No confined space entry and no contact with the waste flow. Train operators in minutes. Test results, including GPS, are immediately available with little interpretation required. Results can be saved to an Internet-enabled PC for additional analysis.
Over 1 million meters of pipe have been inspected. Infosense are currently looking for experienced distributors in Europe.
