Detect and locate leaks and bursts
Helps identify location of leaks and bursts at an early stage, using hydraulic modelling to support asset management of the distribution network.
Burst in brief
Anomaly detection
Prevents the number of false alarms with its built-in features designed to recognise abnormal situations that are not pipe bursts.
Support asset management of distribution network
Early detection of issues and preventative maintenance are the key to protecting these vital assets. Our sophisticated prediction and detection capabilities ensure that assets can be managed in the most cost efficient, least disruptive way.
Pipe failure monitoring
Using adaptive alert threshold values per area, based on historical data. Derive the optimal alarm thresholds to automatically detect the smallest possible bursts.
Reduce non-revenue water with leak detection and localisation
Self-learning technologies now enable us to make demand, flow and pressure predictions. These deliver major advantages in identifying when leaks and bursts occur within the water supply network. Leaks can be quickly located to reduce the time for repair.
Comparing network predictions with real-time data highlights anomalies that may be the result of leaks. Learning the variance at each node is used to develop a very accurate alarm threshold variance. The real-time flow is compared instantaneously to nodal prediction, and to historical flow data, to identify smaller leaks and bursts.
Support asset management of distribution network
Meeting the growing demand for water relies on a robust and well-maintained water network. Managing water assets, particularly underground pipelines, is essential. Early detection of issues and actionable insights in your network are the key to protecting these vital assets. Aqua Suite’s sophisticated prediction and detection capabilities ensure that assets can be managed in the most cost efficient, least disruptive way.
Respond quickly to leaks and bursts
Even the smallest bursts are detected and localised at an early stage. Therefore, your operational team can respond quickly and effectively to save water resources, costs and energy. In addition, performance the software provides insight in how well your sensors and hydraulic models are aligned with the current state of your network performance.
Understand your underground assets
The sheer number of assets in your network makes it challenging to determine if sensors or (hydraulic) models are performing well. By analysing the data and detecting anomalies, Aqua Suite Burst flags inconsistencies in the output of models and sensors. This allows you to act on sensor drift, incorrect information on sensor installment or incorrect demand modeling patterns. This helps you both to understand your network better, as well as to have reliable data to do in-depth analysis of your assets.
Aqua Suite Burst quantifies the size of the issue. Because of that, we were able to identify the bursts with the most significant impact to customers quickly and minimise interruption to supply.
