Enigma Digital Multi-Point Correlator

Manufacturer: Ovarro
Enigma® – Digital Multi-Point Correlation System for Leak Detection Enigma® is a next-generation digital correlation system designed for highly accurate leak detection in buried water pipelines. The loggers are installed at multiple locations — typically on valves or hydrants — and can be programmed to operate during either day or night. The system combines noise logging and correlation analysis into a single process, significantly improving detection efficiency and reducing the need for costly night-time operations. Each logger records in three sample periods, allowing clear distinction between continuous leak noise and normal water usage. Key Features: Exceptional accuracy even in challenging environments Advanced 24-bit digital correlation with noise filtering Simple setup and fast data retrieval (USB or optical) Long operational life — up to 5 years without battery replacement Automatic velocity detection and unwanted noise suppression Enigma® enables fast, reliable, and precise identification of leak locations between multiple deployed units — helping reduce water loss and maintain efficient network performance without unnecessary excavation work.
