Leak Detection

Featuring the NEW Hykron from ADS...
Hykron is a listening device that provides high acoustic sensitivity for checking leak noises at water fittings, hydrants, and valves. The Hykron operates on the principle of detecting acoustic leak noise. As leak noise travels through water and the pipe wall, it can be detected by listening at valves, hydrants, or any available fitting on the pipe. The Hykron detects leak noise through its highly sensitive, built-in electronic sensor. Listening is conducted via the headphones with an extension rod and magnetic attachment. 

This entry-level system provides state-of-the-art electronics for improved signal to noise ratio. The Hykron’s low cost, sensitive acoustics, easy operation, durable construction, and alkaline battery with easy field replacement make it an ideal tool for a water crew’s standard tool chest. It comes packaged in a convenient carry case with: handheld electronic sensor; amplifier with belt attachment; extension rods; magnet attachment; and high quality headphones.
