PipePatrol Line Break Detection
Solution for pipeline rupture detection
- Efficient and instant detection of pipeline ruptures, especially for high consequence areas
- Pipeline rupture pattern recognition system for automatic emergency shutdown
- Reliable and fast acting response systems and procedures to minimise environmental effects and danger
Overview
Pipeline ruptures can result in dramatic consequences, endangering public safety and the environment. It is critical that fast acting rupture detection, response systems and procedures are designed, structured, and executed effectively. This is especially true for high consequence areas (HCA), where populated areas, ecological resources or water sources are in danger. To minimise the environmental effect the line break detection systems have to be reliable and fast acting.
PipePatrol Line Break Detection is a dedicated system to efficiently detect pipeline ruptures instantly, raise an alarm and initiate emergency pipeline shutdown procedures. The system consists of a local PLC with rupture pattern recognition installed, plus two pressure transmitters to act as the pipeline rupture detection sensors. The PipePatrol system includes a self-learning feature for easy commissioning and tuning to the local pipeline operational conditions.
- Can be autonomous or integrated into a complete leak detection system
- Self-learning feature eases commissioning work in site
- Configuration via local display or by remote access
- Fail-safe system version available
