O-Seal capsules are introduced into the water system through existing access points: fire hydrants, valve chambers, or service connections. No excavation required.
Capsules travel passively with water flow, using internal sensors to map their position within the pipe network. Onboard control adjusts buoyancy and orientation.
Miniaturized pressure sensors continuously monitor for anomalies. When a pressure drop indicates a leak, the capsule identifies the exact location with high precision.
Upon detection, the iris closes to throttle flow through the capsule while the outer shell inflates against the pipe wall. This anchors the unit at the fracture point and creates a secure long-term seal.
Units that anchor at a fracture remain in place as the long-term seal. Unanchored units deflate on app command or autonomously before approaching valve locations. Retrieval occurs through mesh collection gates or existing pigging access ports. The companion app flags any unaccounted unit within 48 hours.
Works entirely inside existing pipes. Street surface stays intact.
Operates inside live, pressurized water systems without interrupting supply.
Detects and seals a fracture in minutes. A conventional repair takes weeks.
Swarm deployment covers complex networks with one dispatch operation.
