Inspecting Water Main Infrastructure at Food & Beverage Facilities

Echologics has provided emergency response and proactive asset management solutions, from working with facility engineering to pinpoint a leak on a critical water supply line to determining the remaining structural strength of the non-redundant water supply line from the city. Echologics' technology is ideally suited for food and beverage facility projects as a minimal amount of field equipment is required, and inspections can be quickly completed on both small and large diameter water pipes with no disruption to operations. Our highly trained engineers understand the unique requirements for security, health and safety, and environmental protection.

Typical Applications

Regulatory compliance and environmental reporting
Fire protection line inspection
Leak location on a process line
Cooling water supply line inspection
Inspection and monitoring of water supply line to the facility

Solutions

Leak detection: Highly trained Echologics' field engineers can be quickly mobilized to identify a leak on virtually any material or diameter of water main. The service can be applied to a single pipe section or an entire water system running between production buildings.

Permanent Leak Monitoring: For critical water supply lines either feeding the facility or under heavy truck roadways, Echologics can install a permanent leak detection system that can immediately notify the engineering department in the event that a leak forms.

Pipeline Condition Assessment: Buried pipe infrastructure can be inspected and graded for remaining structural strength to help determine the need and timing for replacement or rehabilitation.

Projects

Leak Pinpointed at a Large Bottling Plant
A large beverage bottling plant in China was losing approximately 40,000 gallons per day of treated supply water. Service crews had been searching for the leak for several weeks but could not locate it because the facility's complex piping and plant operations created loud background noise. An onsite Echologics® field crew, using the LeakFinder™ correlator located the leak within a day, pinpointing it underneath a section of concrete roadway surrounding the plant. Based on the rapid response and accurate result, the bottling company purchased Echologics LeakFinder units for its own service crews, using the technology to locate leaks in other plants throughout China.
