InfoSense’s Sewer Line Rapid Assessment Tool (SL-RAT) isn’t just helping domestic utilities save money and resources, it’s also doing incredible work abroad. Through the use of its acoustic inspection technology that can rapidly screen sewer pipes for blockages, prioritization of segments can be easily performed. Because acoustic inspection doesn’t cost as much as traditional visual inspection, it provides a cost-effective method of establishing a maintenance program based on conditions.

Over in Australia, Sydney Water launched its own acoustic inspection pilot program where it discovered more than fifty percent of pipes in its cyclic cleaning didn’t need to be cleaned any further. Combined with the power of acoustic technology, the utility is better able to manage resource prioritization, time and water on areas that have an actual need, resulting in improved service and better protection for the environment.

You can purchase the SL-RAT through the Avanti Company website. To read more about international use of the SL-RAT, please visit this link.
