In the past few years alone, Heath has inspected more than 3,000 gas facilities and more than 1,000,000 piping components in the natural gas utility industry, proving you can count on Heath to provide experienced planning and logistics for your greenhouse gas emissions program. Our intrinsically safe Remote Methane Leak Detector (RMLD-IS®) is an eye-safe laser-based natural gas detector (methane) that can quickly and efficiently detect leaks up to one hundred feet away allowing remote detection of underground piping, compressor stations, offshore platforms, plant/industrial inspections, gas processing plants, gas gathering, drilling sites, landfills, difficult terrains and more. When the infrared laser beam is transmitted from the launch port, some of the laser light is reflected back and converted to an electrical signal that carries the information needed to deduce the methane concentration.

The RMLD-IS is a game-changer in the environmental industry. The proof is in the numbers with thousands of units in use worldwide. The RMLD's remote detection allows users to satisfy increasing restrictions on air quality controls and increase success in reducing emissions from underground pipeline networks as well as above ground fugitive sources like valves.

Whether working for our customers in the field or as an equipment supplier, we have the experience and expertise to provide operational safety, saving time and money.
