How long has the LaserGasPatroller 800 been in use in your company?
We started working with a gas detection vehicle in 2010. The first vehicle was equipped with the SEWERIN Leakplotter system, then in 2016 we switched to the newer type of detector with laser sensor, the LGP 800 system.
What are the advantages of the LaserGasPatroller 800?
Thanks to the gas purge vehicle, we can inspect a larger part of the distribution system in a shorter time, so we can carry out this inspection several times a year where there is a greater risk of leaks. With our human capabilities, such an inspection would not be possible on foot or with a handheld detector. We regularly adjust the network information to indicate where to go by vehicle and where to go on foot. Non-drivable areas are conventionally inspected on foot with a carpet probe detector.
Why did you choose a Sewerin gas detection vehicle?
SEWERIN offers excellent value for money. In the time we have been using the new detector, i.e. since 2016, we have only changed consumables (filters, hoses) within the system. The initial investment was more than acceptable compared to other systems on the market. SEWERIN's local representative in the Czech Republic, Line Control s.r.o., offers a very comprehensive service and is able to carry out repairs directly on site and in the shortest possible time. Not forgetting the software we work with, for which we receive local support in English to ensure smooth co-operation.
