As preventive maintenance before pipe bursts due to internal corrosion, assists in decision-making for water pump updates and optimizes supply flow to LRA through sedimentation identification on pipe walls.

The target audience include water supply companies and the contractors who are grappling with the maintenance of raw water supply pipelines to prevent bursts from internal corrosion. Hardened sedimentation also need to be monitored for optimum capacity supply to LRA.

The product targets water supply companies and the contractors facing challenges in maintaining raw water supply pipelines to prevent bursts from internal corrosion and optimize sedimentation for maximum capacity supply to LRA. Developed by UTM, the technology integrates NIR lighting, long-range video data transmission, and computer vision for inspections without water drainage or excavation. Its benefits include preventive maintenance, aiding in decision-making for pump updates, and optimizing supply flow to LRA. Competitors may include oil and gas inspection companies, albeit with different focuses.

The technology comprises NIR lighting and cameras, long-range video data transmission (300m-5000m), and computer vision capabilities for clear views in murky or tannic water. Additionally, the UTM team can enter raw pipeline networks without water drainage or excavation for inspections.
