Leak detection

The PermaNet+ remote water leak detection technology from Fluid Conservation Systems is designed to locate water distribution system leaks. Its acoustic leak noise sensor technology provides sensitivity identical to the FCS Permalog+ platform. The sensor attaches magnetically to water pipelines and proactively "listens" for leak noise to occur within the distribution network. PermaNet+ then transmits the acoustic data from the leak noise sensors directly to the cloud using the existing cellular network, with no need for additional repeating infrastructure or time-consuming installation and setup.

Transducer

Morgan Advanced Materials has launched a new best-in-class, 2-megahertz (MHz), water-coupled transducer for ultrasonic flow metering, offering improved sensitivity and ring-up time about 3 times shorter than alternative ultrasonic sensors. Customizable for any liquid measurement application from water metering to fuel flow, the sensor provides a high receive signal over a very small area. With a diameter of only 20 millimeters, the new sensor offers space and material savings, while maintaining superior performance.
