About Leak Noise Correlation
Leak noise correlation is an advanced acoustic technique that uses two or more sensors placed at accessible points along a pipe (such as hydrants, valves, or exposed stubs) connected to a correlator processor.
The processor measures the time delay of the leak sound reaching each sensor and calculates the exact position of the leak along the pipe.
This mathematical approach eliminates the need to follow a sound gradient and provides precise distance measurements from known reference points, making it the most accurate method for locating leaks on long, continuous pipe runs.
Best For
- Municipal water main leak location
- Long underground service line runs
- Slab-embedded plumbing in multi-storey buildings
