egeplast SLM® DCS and SLM® DCT pipe systems enable operators to monitor the integrity of pipes used for the transportation of drinking water, waste water, gas and sewage. Using electrical continuity testing, it’s possible to identify if damage has occurred during installation and to locate damage to an accuracy of one metre.
