Line Rupture and Leak Monitoring
More safety for your gas infrastructure: the GASYCO Line Rupture and Leak Monitoring detects leaks, open connections and critical flow deviations automatically – for fewer gas losses, higher system availability and better protection of personnel and infrastructure.
Applications by industry
Detect leaks before they become a problem.
Line Rupture and Leak Monitoring adds a decisive margin of safety to gas supply systems and reliably protects against uncontrolled gas releases. It minimises the risk of gas losses, protects personnel and infrastructure, and contributes significantly to the safe and efficient use of industrial gas systems.
By monitoring the gas flow continuously, the system detects critical deviations early. In the event of a line rupture or a serious leak, the gas supply is interrupted automatically, so hazardous gas concentrations in production areas and workshops are effectively avoided – this increases occupational safety and reduces consequential damage and downtime.
The integrated leak monitoring enables regular, automated checks of ring main systems. Leaks and connections left open are detected reliably – before they lead to safety-relevant or costly problems.
Usable as an extension for analysers and gas mixers or as a stand-alone solution, the system integrates flexibly into existing systems. Freely configurable monitoring limits and complete event documentation support safe, standard-compliant operation and make internal and external audits easier.
Designed for your piping network.
This is our standard. Not your limit.
The flow rates, pressures and temperatures in this table are our standard design. For larger networks, higher pressures or special installation situations, we design the monitoring individually.

Where the device is used.
Useful wherever gas is routed over ring mains or distribution lines to several points of use – regardless of industry and gas type. The following industries are typical examples.
The right questions. The right answers.
How does line rupture and leak monitoring work?
It combines two functions: line rupture monitoring checks the gas flow continuously and interrupts the gas supply automatically if a line rupture or a serious leak occurs. Leak monitoring checks the ring main system automatically at set times for leaks and connections left open.
Where does line rupture monitoring make sense?
Wherever gas is routed through ring mains or distribution lines to several points of use – regardless of industry and type of gas. Typical examples are welding halls with a central shielding gas supply, heat treatment, the chemical and petrochemical industries, refineries, metallurgy, the energy sector and power-to-gas, and research and development.
What happens in the event of a line rupture?
The gas supply is interrupted automatically, so that no hazardous gas concentrations build up in production or factory halls. At the same time, the system reports the incident by SMS, email or relay contact. This protects personnel and infrastructure and reduces consequential damage and downtime.
Which flow rates and pressures does the monitoring cover?
As standard, 2 – 250 m³n/h at 16 barg inlet pressure and 0 to +60 °C gas temperature; the pressure drop is no more than 0.2 bar. For larger networks, higher pressures, more lines or special installation situations, we design the monitoring individually, also in other form factors.
Can the monitoring be retrofitted to an existing system?
Yes. It is available stand-alone or integrated into the GAMI gas mixer or the GAN gas analyser, so it can be integrated flexibly into existing systems. The monitoring limits can be freely configured.
How do I prove the tightness of my lines in an audit?
The result of every leak test is stored with complete event documentation, and certificates are generated automatically. In the Gasyco Dashboard you call up the test reports for internal and external audits.
Can I monitor several lines and sites centrally?
Yes. LTE, LAN and USB are built in as standard; in the Gasyco Dashboard you see consumption and pressure of all lines as a trend and monitor several plants at a glance – with no software installation.
