New sewer inspection vehicle revolutionizes wastewater tests in southern Palatinate!

The municipal service business Südpfalz GmbH (KSSüdpfalz) have significantly expanded their offer: a state -of -the -art sewer inspection vehicle is now in use to improve the quality and safety of sewage pipes. With the introduction of this vehicle, the municipalities of Edenkoben, Landau-Land, Offenbach, Herxheim, Bad Bergzabern and the waste disposal industry Landau (EWL) can provide even efficient support in water supply and waste water disposal. The Rheinpfalz reported that additional two new specialists were set to to meet increased requirements.

The new vehicle uses an innovative 3D curve technology for precise measurement and digital display of house connection lines. It is equipped with a cable -managed camera system that is able to thoroughly explore the channel system and to continuously deliver high -resolution images and measurement data. This system enables targeted penetration in side cables from the main channel, which enables a complete view of the pipe network. This significantly improves the planning and implementation of renovation measures.

efficient sewer inspections and legal requirements

The application of this technology is particularly relevant, since legal requirements are mandatory for sewage tests of wastewater pipes. KS Wastewater technology that the proof of the tightness is required for all private basic and house connection lines that transport the dirt or mixed water. The tightness test must begin with an optical inspection (TV inspection) that identifies cracks, infiltrations and leaks.

Before the TV inspection can begin, the lines to be examined must be cleaned. Legislators require a comprehensive sealing test, with the use of the latest vehicles such as IBAK vehicles offer great advantages. These vehicles make it possible to rinse and inspect lines at the same time without being dependent on revision openings. A large number of necessary work steps can therefore be carried out in one work step, which brings significant time savings, even in secure areas with access to access.

meaning of the tightness test

A review of the tightness of sewage systems is all the more important, since estimates according to 60-70% of wastewater pipes are leaking on private plots. According to § 61 Water Household Act, the self -control of sewage systems is determined and mandatory nationwide. The examination must be carried out by expert staff or suitable positions in order to secure insurance claims in the event of damage. ms wastewater technology also indicates that older pipes are only insured if a sealing test that is not older than five years.

New building owners are required to request a sealing test before building acceptance. The costs for these exams are tax deductible, which creates additional incentives for the use of this important service.

The KSSÜDPfalz's new channel inspection vehicle has already been successfully put into operation in Hainfeld and other municipalities and projects are being planned. With this technical upgrade, the quality of wastewater disposal in the region is significantly improved and contributes to the legal requirements.
