Zonescan Case Study 4 ScreenshotA trial Zonescan survey was requested by Thames Water to directly compare the effectiveness of their previously installed radio acoustic loggers with the advanced technology offered by the Zonescan system.

This trial survey was to form the basis of a thorough technical appraisal.

The local operatives used an A to Z map on this occasion to plan the patrol route. This type of map can then be substituted for a pipe diagram for any follow up investigation work.
When the operator sets the leak value threshold level at 30, rather than 50, it can be clearly seen from the Project Table opposite that the whole length Lancaster Road becomes an area of interest.

The leakage engineer designated to this trial parked his van on Lancaster Road and carried out a Remote Listen to each of the now highlighted loggers to determine if it was leakage that the loggers were indicating. Each Remote Listen confirmed that each logger was indeed logging leak noise.

A correlation carried out between the Zonescan loggers located outside number 4a Lancaster Road and outside number 18 Lancaster Road gives the result as indicated below.
The first peak (reading from the left of the result) is indicating a leaking valve on the distribution main at 12.6 metres from logger 100081. The second peak, 39.2 metres from logger 100081 is indicating a leak on a customer supply pipe.

Zonescan Case Study 4 ScreenshotThe outcome of this operational trial comparing the Zonescan system with Thames Water’s then incumbent system resulted in a score of 9/10 for the Zonescan. Compared to 4/10 for the incumbent loggers.

Thames Water Utilities Ltd have subsequently invested in over 1500 Zonescan loggers for specifically targeting their high risk/high leakage areas.

The main key benefits over the incumbent logger system indicated by this trial were:

1. One man patrolling carried out a 100% download of all the loggers in half the time.
2. Accurate leak pinpointing during one visit to the area.
3. Leak Value threshold levels can be set to prioritise leak location tasks.
4. Leak noise confirmation can be carried out quickly and safely from a vehicle.
