Waterless Arc Test

MIT Arc Testing Device

All geomembrane liner installations should be thoroughly

tested to ensure complete integrity exists, prior to the
placement of any covering media over the liner.

Geomembranes put into service with existing damage will

cause the early deterioration of the protection they can offer.

The standard quality control systems normally offered during

liner installation concentrate solely on the welds and as such
these controls will miss damage to the liner in mid-sheet
areas.

Clients can be sure that the installer has provided a clean

installation, whilst the installer is protected from claims for
damage caused to the liner that occurs after the test date.

Advantages of Waterless Geomembrane Arc Testing:

Cost effective
No upfront cost
Additional Quality Control for installation of
geomembranes
Electronic verification of integrity
High voltage DC arc testing device
Developed to further strengthen QC of geomembrane
Generates an audio-visual alarm when damage is found
Verifies the integrity of the entire surface (including
welds)
Identifies all damage caused by transit and installation
Can detect even the smallest < 0.5mm pinhole damage
Protection for the client and the installation contractor
No water required to operate
One operator can test up to 6000m² per day
Zero interference between units
Many operators can work simultaneously
