Siemens Unveils Leak Monitoring System

Siemens has developed a system called Siwa LeakControl, which can continuously monitor leaks in water pipes.

Siwa LeakControl is based on flow measurements and can be installed in all types and sizes of pipes to reduce water transmission losses.

The leak control system checks leaks in water pipes and pinpoints their location automatically by measuring the outflow and inflow of water through ultrasonic flow meters.

The system also pinpoints suspected leaks with the integrated magnetic inductive flow meters and acoustic sensors, keeping water losses as low as possible, according to waterandwastewater.com.
