Environment + Energy’s 2022 Product of the Year

September 15, 2022

Don’t rely on desktop analytics or predictive models when you can know (for sure) whether a pipe is a lead service line. And, forget about relying on expensive ($2,000 per hour) hydro-excavation and potholing. Especially when Electro Scan Inc.‘s #SWORDFISH can identify and inventory lead services, in minutes.

Environment + Energy’s 2022 Product of the Year, order your SWORDFISH today.

Who knew the same technology – electric resistance testing – that finds & measure leaks missed by acoustic sensors and data loggers, also locates and verifies lead pipes?

American Water Works Association Infrastructure Conference

September 4, 2022

Join me next week in Portland, Oregon at American Water Works Association Infrastructure Conference, Sept 13 and in Los Angeles, California later this month at World Water-Tech, Sept 29 as I present Electro Scan Inc.‘s #SWORDFISH lead detection device.

Doing an inventory of your buried lead pipe is simple and straightforward using #SWORDFISH. The industry’s only solution that automatically locates lead service lines, entering either a Basement Meter or Curb Stop.

Desktop analytics and predictive models have zero accuracy on telling drinking water suppliers where to dig. And paying $2,000 an hour to hydro-excavate is expensive, disruptive, and messy.

Swordfish Lead Detection

August 30, 2022

WOW. Congratulations to TEAM Electro Scan Inc. for this amazing honor, and the only IoT supplier to be represented in the water industry. Replacing legacy acoustic sensors and visual inspections with Electro Scan’s pressurized and unpressurized leak detection tools is happening, worldwide.

More awards coming for Electro Scan’s SWORDFISH LEAD DETECTION device. Cities are calling after spending big bucks on desktop analytics and predictive models that couldn’t provide accurate identification of lead, copper, galvanized or plastic pipe. Contact Matthew Campos, VP Pressurized Pipe, Email: matt@electroscan.com

Just texted and added to this post!

Still using CCTV or AI-CCTV?

August 4, 2022

Are you still using CCTV (or AI-CCTV) to locate & quantify your infiltration? Accept repairs as leak-free? Certify #CIPP liners as watertight? Time to put away the TV cameras and adopt machine-intelligent technology to automatically locate and quantify all leaks.

Congratulations to Christopher Jones and John Appenzeller of Hillsborough County, Florida, on the County’s new purchase.

The comparison of CCTV (using NASSCO, Inc. Standards) and Electro Scan Inc. were stunning. No wonder cities experience recurring flooding and sewer overflows after selecting repairs and acceptance based on visual inspections, like CCTV.

First Machine-Intelligent Solutions Automatically Assess Leaks and Pipe Wall Condition

August 2, 2022

Want to stop this from happening in your city? Stop using old technology, like CCTV cameras or Acoustic sensors that neither can ‘see’ leaks or ‘hear’ where pipe walls are permeable. Electro Scan Inc.‘s FOCUSED ELECTRODE LEAK LOCATION #fell is the industry’s first machine-intelligent solutions that automatically assesses leaks and pipe wall condition in both gravity and pressurized sewers to provide unambiguous and unbiased results.

And, make sure you do not use Acoustic sensors or CCTV cameras to approve repairs, rehabilitation, and relining #CIPP projects. They can’t. Even worse, we are seeing some relined sewers leaking worse AFTER rehabilitation than BEFORE due to poorly reconnected sewer taps that are temporarily covered during the lining of a sewer. WOW!

Stay tuned for our results from Polk County’s Force Main Inspection Project. Data intelligence that acoustic balls or visual cameras (or AI) can never deliver for actionable results. Machine Intelligence (MI) is the answer.

EPA recognizes ‘Electrical Resistance Testing’ to locate and inventory lead service lines.

August 1, 2022

It’s official. The EPA now recognizes ‘Electrical Resistance Testing’ to locate and inventory lead service lines. Electro Scan Inc. is pleased to announce that the August 4, 2022, USEPA Guidance to Help Communities Locate Lead Pipes that can Contaminate Drinking Water features ‘electrical resistance testing’ to locate and inventory lead pipes.

Identified as an emerging method, ‘Electrical Resistance Testing’ is an alternative to CCTV Cameras, Desktop Analytics, Hydro Excavating, Predictive Models, and Potholing for unambiguous and unbiased testing results.

As multi-patent holders in the use of electrical resistance for pipe condition assessment Electro Scan Inc. is proud to introduce its SWORDFISH lead detection solution to the U.S. and International markets.

Use of Satellite Leak Detection (that actually requires others to find the leaks) and Artificial Intelligence

July 20, 2022

A cautionary note from Hugh Chapman on the use of Satellite Leak Detection (that actually requires others to find the leaks) and Artificial Intelligence to ingest acoustic leak detection signals that exponentially increase the number of false-positives.

The same buyer’s remorse is being observed in applying AI to CCTV videos. If CCTV cameras can’t tell where pipes leak, then neither will AI. Defeating the claim that AI will improve rehabilitation selection. It does not.

Clearly, private equity and venture capital investors that have funded these companies did fully understand the needs of the water market and the rigorous benchmarking that is undertaken before solutions are Accepted.

Word of these kind of project failures travel fast.

Thanks Hugh Chapman for posting.

Electro Scan Inc. is working with dozens of U.S. and Global water companies that succumbed to these technologies, now having trouble delivering actionable (i.e. where to fix and in what priority) data to their customers and regulators.
