Digital MESA 2-D Test System*

*Our preferred method of testing

Fast Results:  Test results are available on-site!  Detailed written reports are available the next day!

Superior Technology: MESA 2-D test results are 100% digital & computer analyzed which eliminates the chances of human error affecting test results.  Many other tank test systems are analog and not computer controlled.  These inferior test methods rely heavily on the testing technician listening for leaks or bubbles in the tank bottom.  The MESA 2-D uses computer and digital acoustic profiling technology to evaluate the integrity of underground tank systems. 

Harmless Testing: The MESA 2-D test system will not damage the tank or heating system.  This is not an air pressure test!

Test tanks with any level of fuel: MESA 2-D test system can test tanks with any level of fuel including tank that are empty.

How does the test work? See diagram below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. A small digital probe is lowered into the fill pipe of the tank

2. The digital probe is connected to a computer which monitors acoustical signals inside the tank.  Based on digital readings from the probe, the computer generates a digital map and acoustical profile of the tank's integrity.

3. If the MESA 2-D test detects a "U-L" frequency leak, a leak may exist in the piping or empty portion of the tank.  "U-L" leaks typically occur in the vent pipe or fill pipe and often can be repaired.

4. If the MESA 2-D test detects vapor bubbling, also known as a "P-L" frequency leak, the tank system has a leak in the oil or fuel filled portion of the tank.  These leaks usually indicate a critical system failure.  As a result, these tanks are often taken out of service and properly abandoned.
