Fast And Reliable Gas Leak Detection Ensures Safety And Warmth For Ahr Valley Residents

An advanced gas detection system from ABB has helped restore gas supplies to the flooded Ahr Valley in Germany. The vehicle mounted system uses lasers to rapidly detect gas leaks, allowing quick restoration of supplies to residents. The flood disaster in the Ahr Valley in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, caused major disruption to the gas supply. Restoring it before the winter is a major priority, particularly in the city of Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler, one of the worst hit towns.
