InfoSense recently received the Innovative Technology Award from WEF for its Sewer Line Rapid Assessment Tool (SL-RAT™), a condition assessment tool for collection system crews that provides quick diagnostics of a sewer pipeline segment without the time and expense of a closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection. The system consists of a mobile transmitter and a receiver, which are dropped down a manhole at opposite ends of a sewer line hundreds of feet apart. A low frequency sonic wave travels down the pipeline, and the resulting acoustic wave pattern is interpreted by computer formulas to indicate the likelihood that the line is fully open or blocked.
