Dyteqta says its new DYTEQTA-SYSTEM, reportedly the world’s first dedicated remote, non-invasive, non-destructive drainage monitoring system, “marks a major advance in the battle against disease transmission through crosscontamination”.
Using sonar, and co-developed with Edinburgh’s Heriot-Watt University, DYTEQTA-SYSTEM identifies loss of water trap seals in complex drainage networks. The seals prevent contaminated air and harmful pathogens, including hospital superbugs, passing into the habitable occupied space. Arguing that “the size and complexity” of modern construction makes manual assessment impractical, Dyteqta says there was previously no proactive way to monitor the ongoing effectiveness of water trap seals after a building had been completed and occupied.
