- Extremely high detection sensitivity (typical 1 l/h for liquids, 100 l /h for gases)
- Fast response time (typical 2 - 24 h)
- High accuracy of leak localization (0.5 % of monitored length: e.g. 50 m on 10 km)
- Automatic integral self-test
- Very low operation and maintenance costs
- Identification of leak substance possible (by
use of special gas analyzers and air sampling)
- Large variety of detectable media (gases and liquids)
- Each system can monitor up to 2 x 25 km of
pipeline
- Works under & above ground and submerged in water
- Up to date no leak remained undetected (including leak simulation field tests)
- 100% reliability of installed tubes (275 km of LEOS tubes installed by 2009)
- General license by German supervisory authority for civil works (DIBt) and UL certified equipment
- Complies to German technical guidelines for
pipelines (TRFL)
