Pure Technologies Ltd. today that its subsidiary, Pure Technologies
U.S., Inc., Columbia Maryland, has been awarded a contract with the San
Diego County Water Authority for up to USD 888,000. The contract
includes the supply and installation of SoundPrint AFO fibre-optic
monitoring equipment to monitor an additional 4.2 km of prestressed
concrete pipeline, and two years' monitoring and technical support
service.
Between March 2006 and February 2009, the Water Authority has installed
79 km of acoustic fiber optic (AFO) cable to monitor wire break
activity and to provide critical information on the remaining service
life of their pipeline. The remaining 4.2 km of AFO will be installed
in January 2010 bringing the total length of pipeline monitoring to
83.2 km. SDCWA will be the second water utility in the United States to
install AFO throughout their entire prestressed concrete cylinder pipe
(PCCP) inventory.
The monitoring is part of SDCWA's multi-year
Aqueduct Protection Program, designed to assure the continuing
integrity of the agency's network of large-diameter prestressed
concrete transmission mains.
