The challenge

What operators are up against

Operators responsible for pressurized distribution mains, valves, hydrants, meter pits, fittings, suspected leak areas, acoustic samples, repair sites, and utility field teams cannot continuously inspect every operating condition or developing fault. Periodic checks leave gaps between readings, while isolated local indicators provide limited history and context. A late response can cause downtime, safety exposure, equipment damage, or incomplete compliance evidence. Teams need timely measurements, clear exceptions, and a defined operating response.

The solution

How FIDO Leak Locate Acoustic Leak Detection and Pinpointing addresses it

FIDO Leak Locate Acoustic Leak Detection and Pinpointing combines connected field data with application software. Portable FIDO sensors capture high-definition acoustic samples at network assets or the ground. FIDO AI classifies leak or no-leak evidence, estimates leak size, guides waypoint investigation, correlates sensor pairs. Move sensors through the survey area, pinpoint excavation targets, prioritize the largest losses, repair the pipe, and resample to verify successful work.

How it works

Teams configure the monitored assets, users, and operating rules. Portable FIDO sensors capture high-definition acoustic samples at network assets or the ground. FIDO sensors, mobile tools, relays, existing acoustic files, and the cloud service exchange evidence through the supported deployment path. FIDO AI classifies leak or no-leak evidence, estimates leak size, guides waypoint investigation, correlates sensor pairs. Move sensors through the survey area, pinpoint excavation targets, prioritize the largest losses, repair the pipe, and resample to verify successful work.
