Sonar hydrophone technology uses underwater acoustic sensors to detect leaks in buried or submerged pipes where the leak sound is transmitted through a column of water rather than through the pipe wall or surrounding soil. The hydrophone is inserted into the water column through a hydrant, standpipe, or direct tap, and listens for the acoustic signature of water escaping from the pipe. This method is exceptionally sensitive for large-diameter water mains and pipes where standard ground-surface acoustic methods may not be effective due to depth or pipe material characteristics.
