GF Announces New Leak Detection Systems
New Leak Detection Systems Meet Varying Customer Requirements from Simple, Low-Cost to Fully Customizable
Aimed to fulfill a wide range of customer requirements for leak detection in double containment piping systems, GF Piping Systems has announced a new product line featuring three leak detection systems.
Georg Fischer Low Point leak detection system
The new offering complements the company’s double containment piping systems, which include Fuseal Squared Polypro, Contain-It™ and Double-See®. The new line is designed for waste water treatment plants and buried applications and includes the 918Q Alarm Box, the PAL-AT Continuous Cable System and the Low Point Leak Detection System.
“In the event there is a leak, these detection systems are extremely useful in determining where the leak is and translating that information to facility personnel in a timely manner,” says Terence Zhao, Engineered Piping Systems Product Manager for GF Piping Systems. “With our three double containment piping systems, it just made sense to offer customers the convenience of buying a leak detection system when they buy one of our double containment systems.”
For simple, low-cost leak detection requirements, the 918Q Alarm Box handles up to four sensor signals and features audible and visual alarm indicators. The space-saving device emits a 90 dB alarm from four feet away and uses standard lithium batteries (low-battery visual indication also included).
GF Piping Systems’ new product offering includes, from left to right, the 918Q Alarm Box, the PL AT Continuous Cable Leak Detection System and the Low Point Leak Detection System.
The second product is the PAL-AT system. Miroprocessor based, the PAL-AT offers multi-sensing and remote monitoring of up to four separate sensing zones, each with up to 7,500 feet of sensor cable. The system also offers the advantage of wet cable start-up and is capable of locating multiple leaks as well as growing leaks.
Last in the new line is the fully customizable Low Point Leak Detection System. This 12-point system uses 12 discrete inputs which allows a leak to be identified at a specific location point in the pipe. Other important features of the system include complete output functionality, availability of additional points, power protection and locking latches.
