Presentation:
Key Features:
Improved for optimal installation and maintenance:
Installing a noise logger for leak detection has never been easier. The ZONESCAN INSTALL Android app guides you step-by-step in activating the ZONESCAN AI logger, registering it on the NB-IoT network, assigning the exact location, and scheduling noise recording times.
- Field-replaceable battery
- Built-in 3D motion sensor for detecting logger displacements
- Chip for monitoring battery life
- Humidity and temperature sensors for monitoring logger condition
Precise location of losses thanks to automatic correlation and Artificial Intelligence:
Each noise signal recorded by a logger is time-synchronized using Gutermann’s proprietary technology, with an accuracy of ≤1 millisecond. This allows the cloud software to automatically correlate data from all nearby sensors and indicate leaks even where individual loggers do not detect a leak.
Transmitting NB-IoT data from under the pipe manhole cover directly to the Cloud
ZONESCAN AI uses NB-IoT (Narrowband Internet of Things) technology, supported by most GSM operators. It is ideal for battery-powered devices installed in underground chambers. The use of the latest radio chip, high-performance antennas and close software collaboration with GSM providers optimizes communication with the Gutermann cloud. ZONESCAN AI using NB-IoT significantly outperforms other 3G/4G CAT M1 IoT devices due to:
- Average battery life of over 5 years
- Deep underground coverage
- Firmware and configuration updates via the NB-IoT network
- Reduced communication costs
- Factory or user-installed SIM card, with multi-network roaming option
- Outstanding typical daily read rates of ≥95%
ZONESCAN.net cloud software, industry leader for loss analysis
- Efficient workflow and classification of loss alarms
- Tracking active and repaired losses
- Generating and distributing detailed loss reports
The new Cloud AI uses thousands of factual data validated by real users around the world, thus increasing the reliability of loss prediction to a whole new level. ZONESCAN AI provides the necessary hardware for Artificial Intelligence, using a state-of-the-art CPU with advanced cybersecurity.
