Always-on Monitoring of Your Critical Flanges

LOCTITE Pulse Smart Flange Leak Detection is a smart maintenance solution that can detect early leakages. You can monitor critical assets in a Web-based app and receive notifications. This enables operators to react in a timely manner and decrease risks of growing leaks.

Flange Leaks are a Big Problem

• Nearly every plant in the process industry has thousands of flanges, many of which are highly critical.
• Critical flanges require regular inspection. This can be very time consuming due to insulation, cladding or difficult accessibility.
• Leakages can lead to serious consequences that affect the safety of employees, the environment and the plant itself.
• Some flammable liquids can form explosive mixtures with air.
• Every hour that a leak goes unnoticed, environmental issues like water contamination and its consequences become more likely.
• Efforts required for repairing a leak increase over time, up to a point where a shutdown of the whole process may become necessary.

With the LOCTITE Pulse Smart Flange solution, you benefit from smart monitoring of your flanges that may reduce the risk of media escaping into the environment or other harmful consequences.
