Instruments for leak detection and pipe tracing in water supplies

Professional equipment for precise location of leaks, water pipes and installations in water supply networks. 

At DWI we supply instruments for leak detection, leak tracing and wire detection, which is used in daily operations by water utilities, contractors and technical organizations. The equipment is selected based on practical experience in the field – where noise, traffic, soil and older installations pose completely different requirements than in the laboratory. 

We offer both sales, leasing and service level agreements (SLA) on professional leak detection equipment so that your organization can build the right instrument package for operation, troubleshooting and maintenance of wiring networks.

Leak detection instruments that actually work

In practice, it is not just the technology that determines the result – but how the equipment is used in a real water supply network. 

Therefore, DWI only works with instruments for leak detection, water leak location and pipe location, which we use in our work with: 

  • leak detection in water supply networks 
  • location of water pipes and service pipes 
  • troubleshooting in installations 
  • analysis of leakage noise and noise patterns 
  • precise determination of leak position 

This means that we can advise on equipment based on experience from real networks and not just based on technical specifications.

Technologies for leak detection and pipe location

The choice of instrument depends on the pipe type, material, depth, noise conditions and access to the installations in the pipe network. 

At DWI we work with, among other things: 

  • acoustic listening equipment for leak detection 
  • correlators for precise location of water leaks 
  • tracer gas for difficult leaks 
  • electromagnetic wire and cable detection 
  • probes for locating pipe runs 
  • ground radar in complex underground installations 

In many tasks, multiple technologies are combined to achieve reliable localization of leaks and pipes.

Sales, leasing and SLA agreements on leak detection equipment

Organizations have different needs when it comes to leak detection and water loss instruments. 

Therefore, DWI offers several options: 

Purchase of instruments 

Direct acquisition of professional equipment for leak detection and wire tracing. 

Equipment leasing 

Access to modern technology for leak and line detection without major investments. 

SLA service agreements 

Service, support and updating of the instrument fleet. 

This makes it possible to keep the equipment updated in line with developments in water supply technology.

Service, support and maintenance of instruments

Professional leak detection instruments require proper setup, calibration and ongoing service. 

We help with, among other things: 

  • installation and commissioning 
  • technical support 
  • service and maintenance 
  • advice on practical use in wiring networks 

This ensures that the equipment delivers stable measurements and usable data for locating leaks.

From instrument to competence

Even the best leak detection equipment only produces good results if it is used correctly. 

Therefore, many organizations combine their instruments with training in methods and application. 

At DWI we offer courses in: 

  • leak detection in water supplies 
  • wire search and wire location 
  • use of listening equipment and correlators 
  • practical work in wiring networks 

See our courses in leak detection and wire detection for more information.

Instruments as part of a larger system

We supply equipment for, among other things: 

  • water supplies 
  • construction companies 
  • industrial companies 
  • organizations with critical infrastructure 

Common is the need for precise localization of leaks, a better overview of the wiring network and a secure decision-making basis for operations and investments.
