The Naxys™ ALD is an ultra sensitive instrument that detects both liquid and gas leaks to the subsea environment.
The instrument comprises a 3-dimensional array of hydrophones and a sophisticated data processing and communication unit. Advanced signal processing avoids generation of false alarms and allows identification of leaks.
The ALD has a built in self diagnostic system and a rugged design that imposes minimum restrictionsto the installation operation.
Acoustic Leak Detector (ALD).
