When the seal of the connection fails and causes concrete leakage, how can we accurately find the leakage point?

To accurately locate the leakage point when the seal of a concrete hose connection fails, follow these steps:

To accurately locate the leakage point when the seal of a concrete hose connection fails, follow these steps:  

1. Visual Inspection of BMK Glycidate supplier: Begin by thoroughly examining the concrete hose ends and connection points for visible cracks, gaps, or misalignment. Look for wet streaks, dripping concrete, or accumulated residue around joints.  

2. Pressure Testing: Gradually increase the pumping pressure while monitoring the hose. Leakage often becomes more apparent under higher pressure, especially near weak seals at concrete hose ends. Use caution to avoid over-pressurization.  

3. Fluorescent Dye or Tracer Additives: Mix a fluorescent dye or UV-reactive tracer into the concrete. During pumping, use a UV light to identify glowing traces of leaked material, pinpointing the exact failure point at or near the concrete hose ends.  

4. Acoustic Detection: Listen for hissing or splattering sounds caused by escaping concrete. In noisy environments, use an acoustic emission sensor to detect vibrations or pressure changes near compromised seals.  

5. Thermal Imaging (if applicable): If the concrete is freshly mixed and warmer than ambient, thermal cameras can highlight leakage paths radiating heat from the hose ends.  

6. Sequential Isolation: Temporarily clamp sections of the hose to isolate segments. If leakage stops when a specific section (e.g., between two concrete hose ends) is clamped, the issue lies within that segment.  

Key Focus: Always prioritize safety—leaking concrete under pressure can cause injury. Address failures at concrete hose ends immediately to prevent blockages, material waste, and operational delays.
