There are two standard applications for the ZONESCAN 850 logger platform:

• Lift & Shift mode (to find difficult leaks or perform zone-by-zone leakage surveys). When the term “Lift & Shift“ was first introduced by GUTERMANN engineers, this method of performing periodic leakage surveys in confined areas and collecting the data for subsequent analysis on the transport of the loggers from area A to area B was the most common way of using loggers. To this date, it is still a popular method for utilities that like to assign leakage teams to periodically check all areas of the pipe network for new leaks. In Lift & Shift, the operator programs the loggers before deploying them overnight and collecting them on the next day in order to download and review the collected data.
• Drive-by mode (for permanent or periodical deployment and weekly collection of the data in a drive-by survey), using ZONESCAN SMART with or without upload of the data to the ZONESCAN NET cloud. In “Drive-by” mode the loggers remain permanently at their assigned locations in the pipe network. In periodic intervals at the utility’s discretion the operator drives by the logger locations and the ZONESCAN Commlink automatically picks up the recorded data from the loggers. Up to 30 days’ worth of logging can be stored, as well as one night’s correlation data. The Drive-by method is preferred by utilities who want to minimise the frequency of surveying specific areas and therefore reduce any leak runtime. They also want the option of drawing on longer historical data for each logger in order to analyse specific leak situations.

These are the main features of ZONESCAN 850 and ZONESCAN SMART:

• Experience and track record – Rooted in over 20 years of experience and user feedback: The ZONESCAN series was the first correlating leak noise logger in the world. It has since been sold tens of thousands of times in over a hundred countries. ZONESCAN 850 is the fourth generation of this legendary leak detection tool and is now incorporating many of the latest features and technological advancements from Gutermann. It is unparalleled in size, robustness, communication quality, performance, sensitivity and precision. It was conceived with a main focus on ease of use and quality that lasts. With the ZONESCAN 850 Gutermann is again setting the bar to the next level.
• High performance – Locating difficult leaks with precision and confidence: During the efficient leak detection work process “Lift & Shift”, which was minted by Gutermann, the ZONESCAN 850 correlating leak noise loggers are programmed and deployed during the day to record measurements during the quiet night hours. The loggers are then collected the following day and optionally redeployed in a new area. The results are shown directly on an interactive map that can be enriched with the utility GIS as a layer, helping pinpointing leaks with unmatched precision and visual assistance.
• 30 times more sensitive thanks to correlation: GUTERMANN invented the correlating logger in 2001. Today we know that pure noise logging produces too many false positives (false alarms) and false negatives (unidentified leaks). In busy cities there is just too much noise and electrical interference that renders noise level logging ineffective. ZONESCAN 850 loggers can filter out ambient noises around the loggers (thanks to correlation) and electrical and mechanical sounds on the pipe (with advanced spectrum analysis) and identify real leaks. Another crucial benefit of correlation is the ability to automatically and accurately pinpoint the location of the identified leak. With your pipe data imported, the leak will be placed on the correct spot on the pipe map.
• Fit for purpose – Ease of use and reliability in difficult conditions: Using the proven full stainless-steel design with field replaceable battery, the ZONESCAN 850 is significantly
  reducing maintenance cost and increasing operational uptime. A3D motion sensor detects incorrect mounting or unwanted removal. An in-built humidity sensor monitors potential humidity ingress after battery replacement. A dedicated fuel gauge chip measures battery discharge accurately providing helpful preventive maintenance. The attractive and easy-to-use
  ZONESCAN Smart Android allows the user to upload the measurements to the cloud by the push of a button.
• ZONESCAN SMART for smart operators :ZONESCAN SMART is revolutionising mobile leak detection as you know it. Java-based and available for all Android-run smartphones and tablets, it is the most advanced and user-friendly operating software for any mobile noise logger system. The convenient auto filter greatly improves your leak hit rate. All relevant data (logger positions, leak positions, imported pipe data) and even your own current position are displayed on Open Street map or Google Maps in the same clear and neat fashion as we know it from GUTERMANN CLOUD. ZONESCAN SMART can be used for both Drive-by and for Lift & Shift operation. And all data can be exported to your GUTERMANN CLOUD project.
