for Utilities

 

The Problem:

  • High pressure leaks cause extensive damage to adjacent components

  • Normal detection methods (manual inspection, makeup water use, temperature monitoring) can only find leaks of significant size that are already causing major damage

  • Undetected leaks can cause unexpected downtimes

  • Downtime cost can be significant, based on:

    • the number of tubes needing repaired

    • the types of repairs needed

    • the amount of outage hours the unit is off-line and unavailable

  • Downtime at peak hours incurs high replacement power costs (sometimes exceeding $100,000 per day)

The Need:

  • Early detection of high pressure leaks so that damage is controlled

  • Advanced notice of leak problems to minimize costs due to damage

  • Controllable downtimes for repairs to lower power replacement costs

The Solution:

  • ALL is a leak detection and warning system designed for on-line monitoring of pressurized systems and valves

  • ALL tells you that problems are developing before the situation becomes serious

  • ALL provides the detailed data needed to make decisions--whether to make immediate repairs or simply schedule future maintenance at an opportune time
