Q.E.D Announces Precision Liquid Level Reader for Gas Well Applications
PLR device determines leachate and/or condensate levels accurately, safely and efficiently without the need to break the wells' vacuum seal
Dexter, MI - Q.E.D. Environmental Systems, Inc., a leading manufacturer of innovative environmental products and subsidiary of Graco Inc (NYSE: GGG)., announces the release of the Precision Level Reader (PLR), which is a very accurate, safe and efficient method for determining leachate and/or condensate levels in gas wells.
With QED's new PLR device, liquid levels are detected within seconds and are recorded with a time, date and location stamp with no need to interrupt the vacuum in the well. Using a permanently installed weight and tube, the PLR engages a micro-compressor and differential sensors to determine a water level reading that is never affected by foam and will not cross-contaminate from well to well.
The PLR device delivers key advantages over other liquid level measurement devices for gas well applications. With no need for a water tape or well seal removal, level readings take a fraction of the time and effort, with no exposure of technicians to dangerous gases or liquids in the process. Levels are taken with the well vacuum intact, meaning no errors occur due to foam in the well or vacuum losses. With average level readings taking only seconds, operators see immediate and long-term labor savings. All readings are displayed immediately and stored electronically for future access.
Proven industry-standard materials and manufacturing techniques in the QED PLR device ensure a high quality, durable product. The PLR system consists of three components: the Remote Measurement System (RMS), a handheld portable PC and handset software. An IP65 ABS enclosure houses the air pump, battery, pressure sensor and interface circuits in the RMS. The associated rugged handheld unit features integrated Bluetooth, a Windows 10-based operating system, and a minimum of 64MB RAM and 256MB Flash memory. Finally, the customized interface application software features a user-friendly digital display with audible and visual alerts. The software offers simple data recording and storage options, with the option to display results in either imperial or metric measurements.

Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
