Step Testing Surveys

InDepth Water Management are experts in Step Testing Surveys. Step Testing Survey approaches are executed to decided actual leakage volumes.

A massive lower inflow, or “step”, suggests a leak withinside the segment of pipe which has simply been isolated. This approach allows to peer the outcomes of the valve closure immediately, accelerate the operation, and decrease the time the valves are left closed.

Why Step Testing?

Performing Step Testing is one of the most effective ways of identifying high leakage within a water distribution network. It requires the establishment of zones of DMAs where water can be supplied through a single meter.

We usually carry this out at night since this is the time when consumption is the lowest and most stable – it also means less disruption to consumers.

InDepth Water Management use the MAST II System which comprises of two instruments:
– a data logging unit with a high power radio transmitter
– a portable flow indicator / recorder with integral radio receiver
