Acoustic Leak Detection (ALD) Testing

What is Acoustic Leak Detection Testing? 

Acoustic Leak Detection (ALD) Testing is an advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) technique used to identify and locate leaks in pressurized systems by detecting the unique sound waves produced by escaping gases or liquids. This method is highly effective in pinpointing leaks in pipelines, storage tanks, valves, and other infrastructure where traditional methods may fail. 

Industries such as oil and gas, water utilities, chemical processing, and power generation rely on acoustic leak detection testing to maintain asset integrity, prevent environmental contamination, and ensure safety compliance. Dexon Technology’s cutting-edge ALD solutions help operators detect leaks early, optimize maintenance, and minimize downtime. 

Common Problems and How Acoustic Leak Detection Testing Provides Solutions 

Leaks in industrial systems can cause severe operational and safety issues, including: 

• Undetected Small Leaks: Traditional methods may fail to identify minor leaks that can grow into significant failures. 

• Loss of System Efficiency: Leaks in pressurized pipelines lead to wasted resources and increased operational costs. 

• Environmental and Safety Hazards: Uncontained leaks can result in hazardous spills, fires, or toxic exposures. 

• Regulatory Non-Compliance: Industries must adhere to strict leak detection requirements to meet ASME, EPA, and ISO regulations. 

Acoustic leak detection testing addresses these challenges by: 

• Providing Highly Sensitive Leak Detection: Identifies even the smallest leaks using advanced acoustic sensors. 

• Enhancing System Efficiency: Detects and repairs leaks to restore optimal performance and reduce losses. 

• Ensuring Compliance with Industry Regulations: Meets stringent standards for leak detection and safety assurance. 

• Minimizing Downtime and Repair Costs: Early detection allows for proactive maintenance, preventing major failures. 

By integrating acoustic leak detection testing into maintenance programs, Dexon Technology helps clients improve reliability, enhance safety, and reduce environmental risks.
