Ultrasonic tightness control of underground tanks

SDT 170 MTT Throughout Europe and beyond, the problem of soil pollution has become a priority.
For some time now the majority of countries have created a legislative framework for this, aiming to identify and assess risks connected with historical soil pollution and avoid any new pollution. In view of possible pollution of soils or groundwater, the storage of vehicle fuels, heating oil or dangerous liquids in underground tanks is more and more subject to strict operating conditions. Rigorous, periodical tank leak-tightness monitoring is imposed in order to guarantee incident-free operation.

The aim is to be able to identify any leak rapidly so as to limit all risk of pollution as far as possible. In the event of major leaks it may be necessary subsequently to clean up the surrounding sub-soil, which usually leads to relatively costly treatments and work.

 
The controller is rendered liable through the services provided.
So it is easy to understand that the risk of a wrong diagnosis renders the controller liable when a tank is downgraded or approved. The latest SDT TankTEST system was designed with this technician's responsibility in mind.

The SDT 170 MTT is the most reliable, the most comprehensive and the most accurate available for checking the tightness of underground flammable liquid tanks and their associated pipe work by introducing a vacuum and listening to the ultrasounds. With the SDT's "Graphs & Measurements" software for the automatic creation of authenticated reports all data and test measurements are stored in the detector. They can be transferred to a PC. They provide evidence of testing, measurement readings and graphics and archiving of the performances.
