How the system works

The operator installs two vibration sensors on the pipeline, starts a measurement in the mobile app, and sends the data to the server processing system. Correlation algorithms compare vibroacoustic signals from two points, filter noise, and determine whether there is a leak and where it is located.

Vibroacoustic data

The sensors record acoustic signs of a leak on the pipe, including weak signals against urban and industrial noise.

Correlation analysis

The system compares signals from two sensors and calculates the position of the noise source, taking account of the distance and characteristics of the section.

AI processing

AI reduces the effect of interference, helps separate the useful signal, and makes results less dependent on the operator’s qualifications.

  • Suitable for water, heat-transfer fluids, process liquids, and other liquid media.
  • The equipment, sensors, and software were developed by BiometricLabs in Russia.
  • The system can be taken from its case, installed on the pipe, and ready to measure within a few minutes.
  • The solution can be used as an alternative or complement to Enigma, Gutermann, Primayer/Ovarro, Sewerin, and similar correlation leak detectors.

Use cases and operating scenarios

BL1 is used for field diagnostics and routine monitoring of pipeline sections where liquid leaks must be located quickly and excavation work reduced.

Industrial facility

Leak detection at a production site

A service team checks underground and above-ground pipeline sections without a lengthy shutdown of the facility.

Pilot scenarios: Severstal and industrial facilities
District heating networks

Locating damage in heating networks

BL1 helps narrow the search area faster for heat-transfer fluid leaks and reduce excavation along the route.

Use scenarios: Tomsk RTS and heating-network operators
Utilities and water utilities

Field diagnostics of emergency sections

The system is suitable for regular inspections and urgent callouts when it is important to confirm a leak and the work location quickly.

Pilot scenarios: RVK and infrastructure services
