Getting Water Smart – Syrinix Ltd Uses VersaLogic Tomcat in Trunkminder Leak Detection System
With water bills having increased by approx 7% in April 2012, water
conservation has never been so important. More than half of UK water companies will not be required to reduce their leakages before 2015, and with around 3bn litres of water being leaked every day by our water companies, early detection of pipeline failures is imperative.
Syrinix Ltd, based in Norwich, has developed the Trunkminder, a fully automated data acquisition system designed to continuously monitor water pipelines, in order to detect leaks before they become a major problem. Trunkminder uses an array of sensors attached to pipelines to provide instant alerts if a leak occurs, and to gather data which provides real-time information on what is happening in the pipe. Working at a significantly higher level of sensitivity than traditional pressure/flow-based devices, alerts can identify the site of a leak to within one metre.
The
VersaLogic Tomcat provides the Trunkminder with a CPU boasting 800 MHz
performance and very low power draw, due to its use of the highly integrated
Vortex86DX chip. With no moving parts, full industrial temperature rating and
soldered-on RAM, all on the compact PC/104 form factor, it is ideal for
operation in applications like the Trunkminder, where size and weight are
critical factors. With
a 5 year+ production life guarantee, and a standard 2 year warranty, the
VersaLogic Tomcat is an ideal choice for applications needing exceptional
reliability and long term availability.

As years go by, our roof will be worn out due to uncontrollable weather condition and as a result of this, you may encounter leaks. Pipes will also deteriorate and will become rusty as well, that will lead to crevices or cracks that will cause water leaks. When you are experiencing water leak problems you must not take this for granted because this will cause a great damage in other parts of your house when it is not detected in a timely manner. One unfixed leak will cause other larger leaks, especially if you have not found the root cause of the problem. Stop wasting your money and your time. Call the expert Leak detection los angeles.
