Product Line Overview

The PROWLER system (Protect and Reclaim Our Water, Land and Environmental Resources) leak detection and location system offers quick and accurate location of a leak, which allows not only for faster clean up, but, the ability to start that clean up in a more timely fashion. The PROWLER system has several unique features. It uses the principle of diffusion to detect vapors that travel 50 times faster than liquids in the subsurface. It also has the ability to provide complete coverage of a pipeline. The PROWLERS ability to be easily calibrated for existing subsurface conditions and its ability to operate in the presence of water makes it desirable for detecting and locating small gas leaks in and around highly sensitive highly volatile and high risk areas. * Some of these area include, * In and around densely populated areas. * In and around Streams, Ponds and Lakes. * Buried pipelines and underground storage areas. * High gas concentrations areas in remote confined spaces. * Animal and plant sanctuaries. *Air force bases and airports.

Nitor is on the PROWL for Perfect Pipelines

Of the more than 1.9 million miles of pipeline in the U.S. transporting gas and other hazardous chemicals, approximately 67 percent of pipelines are 40 or more years old. While underground shifting can cause pipelines to crack, aging pipeline systems constitute a larger concern. The leading causes of gas leaks include corrosion and general wear and tear. In light of these conditions, Beaver Falls-based startup, Nitor Technologies, has developed the PROWLER system — a patented leak-detection and location system designed to help solve the major concerns of today’s pipeline operators while protecting local communities.
