AMS Instrumentation & Calibration has introduced a new video-based system designed to detect contamination in high pressure gas systems.

The LineVu system aims to improve accountability of gas suppliers to gas network systems, as well as provide better data to help decision making when it comes to process safety and efficiency.

It gives access to office-based and field-based engineers to live video, and with live data, can enable immediate action to be taken to prevent or minimise further contamination.

The recorded data can then be used as evidence to recover pigging as well as clean-up costs from suppliers who breach supply agreements.

LineVu can help determine the flow limits of a gas/liquid separator system with its high precision camera system and help improve flow modelling of processing plants. It can also help to prevent loss and damage of equipment such as compressors or absorber beds.

The new system is now available from AMS Instrumentation & Calibration.
