The company utilizes electric currents to detect leaks in non-conductive sewer pipes.[1][2] The company is based and Sacramento, California, with additional offices in London, England and Toronto, Canada.[3] HistoryElectro Scan was founded in October 2011 by Chuck Hansen in Sacramento, California.[4] In 2012, the Water Environment Research Foundation approved a testing project in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, in which the company used its technology to check non-conductive sewer pipes that had previously been inspected for leaks using other methods.[5] Its technology was utilized by the Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati and the Twin City Water & Sewer District, Ohio, to measure leaks in their systems in 2014.[6] In July 2015, the City of San Francisco's Public Utilities Commission ordered an Electro Scan van and equipment to inspect its pipes.[7] That same year, the company's technology was used by the city of Surrey, British Columbia, to address defects in their sewer system that CCTV inspections weren't able to find.[8] In 2015, Electro Scan Inc. executed a strategic marketing agreement with UK-based WRC plc (Swindon, England), developers of international standards for Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) coding standards, to supply Electro Scan services to British water companies for Pre- and Post-Rehabilitation Pipeline Condition Assessment of pipelines. In 2019, Electro Scan Inc. was named to the 2019 GovTech 100 list of top government technologies [9]. TechnologyThe company's electro scanning inspection technology utilizes a low-voltage high-frequency electric current produced by a probe placed inside a non-conductive sewer line to check the 360-degree wall of the pipe for leaks. The probe is able to determine the size of leaks by the amount of electrical current detected outside of the pipes.[10] The data collected is relayed to a nearby truck and then uploaded to Amazon web servers where it is interpreted before being available for review on a company website.[4][11] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.engineering.com/DesignerEdge/water/ArticleID/13443/How-Engineers-Are-Making-Old-Water-Infrastructure-Smart.aspx|title=Can We Engineer Clean Drinking Water?|publisher=Engineering.com|author=Joan Thompson|date=October 19, 2016|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.avantigrout.com/blog/avanti-blog-1/item/electro-scan-sewer-leak-identification|title=Sewer Leak Identification: Electro Scan Compliments CCTV For Inspection|publisher=Avanti|author=Don Rigby|date= January 20, 2015|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ukstt.org.uk/about-ukstt/news/82-news/667-electroscan-sewer-leak-detection|title=Electro Scan -International Demand Increases For Sewer Leak Detection Projects|publisher=United Kingdom Society of Trenchless Technology|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.theneweconomy.com/technology/electro-scan-mastering-the-dark-art-of-sewer-leak-detection|title=Electro Scan: Mastering the Dark Art of Sewer Leak Detection|publisher=The New Economy|date=March 24, 2014|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.water-technology.net/news/newselectro-scan-testing-technology-milwaukee|title=Electro Scan to Test Leak Scanning Technology in Milwaukee|publisher=Water-technology.net|date=July 13, 2012|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bizjournals.com/sacramento/news/2014/02/25/electro-scan-signs-deals-with-ohio.html|title=Electro Scan Signs Deals With Ohio Sewage Districts|publisher=Sacramento Business Journal|author=Mark Anderson|date=February 25, 2014|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://drasticnews.com/2015/07/san-francisco-public-utilities-commission-adds-electro-scan-mobile-van-for-advanced-pipe-condition-assessment/|title=San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Adds Electro Scan Mobile Van For Advanced Pipe Condition Assessment|publisher=DrasticNews|date=July 1, 2015|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.canadianundergroundinfrastructure.com/article/21339/surrey-solves-ii-mysteries-with-electrical-pipe-scanning-system|title=Surrey Solves I&I Mysteries with Electrical Pipe Scanning System|publisher=Canadian Underground Infrastructure|date=August 12, 2015|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.govtech.com/100/2019/|title=2019 GovTech 100|publisher=Government Technology Magazine, e.Republic|date=January 8, 2019|access-date=January 9, 2019}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://im-mining.com/2013/07/24/electro-scan-for-water-and-other-pipelines/|title=Electro Scan for Water and Other Pipelines|publisher=International Mining|date=July 24, 2013|access-date=February 4, 2017}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://insights.globalspec.com/article/2395/water-leak-detection-the-inside-story|title=Water Leak Detection: The Inside Story|publisher=Engineering 360|author=Bill Leventon|date=March 31, 2016|access-date=February 4, 2017}} External links
