Water Pipeline Detection Robot

Utilizing highly sensitive hydrophones and high-definition camera units, the system detects various anomalies such as minute leaks, damage, pipe nodules, air pockets, and impurity buildup, achieving precise location of anomaly points through a ground beacon system. It can also be used for pipeline route rerouting operations.

During detection, the gate valve under the vent valve is closed. After removing the vent valve, a transceiver is installed. The Diting detection robot is then deployed into the transceiver, the gate valve is opened, and the robot is pushed into the pipeline. The robot moves along the water flow. For easy retrieval, the Diting 60 product features an automatic umbrella retraction function; during retrieval, part of the umbrella rope can be unlocked, significantly reducing water resistance and improving retrieval efficiency.

• Employs a high-sensitivity audio acquisition system for real-time sound signal transmission;
• Equipped with a high-definition camera, providing full-process visualization and ensuring high detection accuracy;
• Effective noise reduction algorithm effectively suppresses interference signals;
• Extremely long detection distance, 2km in typical operating conditions, up to 6km in extreme conditions;
• Precisely locates anomalies/leak points and allows for repeated inspection of suspicious locations;
• No pipeline shutdown required, minimizing impact on water supply;
• Detects minor pipeline leaks, internal pipe defects, pipeline routes, and air pockets within pipelines.

The system consists of a detector main body with built-in video, audio, and positioning modules, an umbilical cable responsible for power supply, signal transmission, deployment and retrieval, a transceiver container, a cable puller, and a ground control station. To suit different application scenarios, our company has developed a series of products:

• Precise Leak Detection: Accurately detects even minute leaks, offering higher accuracy than technologies such as ground-based acoustic sensing, gas tracing, and correlators.
• In-Pipe Inspection: Detects potential valve blockages and water quality deterioration caused by foreign object accumulation within pipelines.
• Route Reconstruction: Applied to pipeline route reconstruction work where route information is missing due to age.
• Repair Investigation: Provides live-pressure inspection results for trenchless repair decisions and design.

This tethered pipeline robot sees and hears what's going on inside your pipe in real time.We use high-sensitivity hydrophones and an HD camera to spot tiny leaks, damage, air pockets, and buildup. Ground beacons let us nail locations down to ±0.5 meters. It even works for rerouting old pipelines where records are missing.

You don't have to shut down service at all. It runs live, under pressure. Our noise reduction cuts out false alerts, so you only act on real problems. It covers 2 km on a typical run, up to 6 km in ideal conditions. The Diting 60 model's umbrella retraction makes retrieval fast and easy.

For DN1000+ pipes, it finds leaks as small as 150 mL/min. It outperforms ground sensors, gas tracing, and correlators, and gives you clear visuals for valve blockages, water quality risks, and trenchless repair planning.

This isn't just data on a screen-it's live eyes and ears inside your line, so you can fix issues before they turn into costly emergencies.
