Gas detectors can locate tiny leaks in pipes, roofing materials, and manifolds with very high sensitivity. They are able to detect miniscule defects before they propagate into potentially catastrophic problems. Our NDT tool manipulators can move helium sensing heads along large and high-up objects and record findings colocated with mapping data to give a high resolution map of leaks in complex plumbing networks. Check out the robots that use the gas sensing system:

Helium can safely be added to water, sewage, oil, and other liquid materials. Because helium is inert, non-toxic, and lightweight, it will permeate through liquids and escape wherever there are leaks. Our gas sensors will then locate helium escape points which will also be where the liquid leaks are.
