Please note: This is a Sole Source Notification. This letter is to certify that LeakFinderST is covered by US Patent 9,528,903. As a result of this patent and other innovations, our water leak noise correlator is the only one that has the following combination of features and capabilities: • Ability to correlate leaks on PVC pipe (through its unique advanced signal processing and sensors designed for PVC and similar pipes). • Ability to find quieter leaks through our enhanced correlation algorithms. • Only system to offer two sets of sensors standard in base model – high frequency accelerometers and low frequency geophone sensors. • Storage of leaks sound files for on demand re-correlation. This enables the correlation to be redone in case the site conditions i.e. type of pipes or distances are not available during the time of measurement or for some reason have to be changed. Retesting at site is not required. • The stored file can be emailed to Echologics customer support for expert analysis and help. • Automatic report generation (it is a record and documentary evidence of the test done, data obtained). • Minimum custom hardware to minimize the cost of purchase and maintenance. This system has one of the lowest costs of ownership. • A service turnaround time and/or downtime guarantee of 48 hours with our replacement system options. • User friendly interface that allows operators to be up and running with the correlator with just a couple of hours of training.
