KenWave Solutions offers a cutting-edge technological solution for the persistent issue of water mains breakages. Each day, these breakages result in significant financial losses due to emergency repairs, wasted water, and inefficiencies. KenWave Technology's leak detection innovations are specifically designed to address these challenges by using ultra-sensitive sensors and advanced signal processing techniques. These systems are meticulously crafted to detect leaks, particularly in plastic pipes, that are undetectable by other traditional means. The technology capitalizes on dynamic response leak detection, a methodology with six decades of proven reliability. The system measures leak-induced noise through special transducers, allowing for precise leak location by calculating the arrival time difference of signals at sensor pairs. Furthermore, by verifying propagation speeds and refining signal processing techniques, environmental noise is minimized and accuracy is optimized, ensuring efficient leak detection in various settings.

Over 2,100 water mains break each day, costing billions in emergency repairs, wasted water, and electricity. Breaks cause sinkholes, close schools, businesses, and force thousands to boil their tap water. When a leak occurs, it must be located quickly and accurately. KenWave Technology does just that.

With ultra-sensitive sensors, advanced signal processing, and analysis, KenWave Technology uncovers leaks too small to be picked-up by other systems. Designed from the ground up to locate leaks on plastic pipes, KenWave Technology is the leak finder’s tool of choice.

KenWave Technology represents the latest development in dynamic response leak detection, a trusted technology with a 60-year track record. Leak-generated noises propagate through the liquid inside a pipe at characteristic speeds. Leak noise is measured by pairs of special transducers. When leak noises originate between the sensors, the location of the leak is proportional to the difference in signal arrival times measured at the sensors.

KenWave Technology incorporates accuracy enhancing refinements not found in conventional systems. For one, the true characteristic propagation speed is verified by direct measurement. Further improvements are achieved through advanced signal processing that enhances leak sounds and suppresses extraneous environmental noise such as vehicular traffic. Finally, phase distortions induced by propagation effects are removed.
