Electrical leak detection methods implement a physical, real-world circuitry consisting of magnetic fields and
current density. The geomembrane, or liner, acts as an electrical insulator and emulates a current barrier.
Two temporary electrodes are required to energize the commercial application: a source electrode and a
return electrode. When the application is energized and saturated, localized ripple-effects of high current
density occurs only at the leaks. Measurements are collected and scans are made with leak detection probes
and equipment to pinpoint the exact location of the leaks.
PELM SYSTEM
The Permanent Electrical Leak Monitoring (PELM) System
can monitor the application for leaks on a daily, weekly, or
monthly basis. Permanent electrodes, or sensors, are installed
throughout single- or double-lined geomembrane systems.
Disconnect Junction (DJ) boxes and Control Panels allow
convenient access for Clients to collect data through a resistivity
meter. After collection, data is analyzed on a custom-made leak
detection software for locating suspect anomalies.
Isolation
Moisture
Electrical isolation is
required to increase leak
detection sensitivity.
Material above the geomembrane
must be saturated with water.

With the rapid technological advances, it is
BLD's goal to stay up-to-date and current with
each advancement. It is imperative to us to
keep improving our current state of the art
instruments to continue providing our customers
with the most accurate readings on
geomembranes such as, but not finite, HDPE,
LLDPE, PVC, XR-5, Hypalon, and
Polypropylene.
The members of BLD have been performing
leak detection for a combined total of
approximately 14 years. Each BLD
technician has completed the following:
Beyond Leak Detection (BLD) specializes
in electrical leak detection on geomembrane
liners. We provide surveys in locating leaks
in commercial applications and installation
services for leak monitoring systems
worldwide.
