Fluid Conservation Systems Inc

Fluid Conservation Systems Inc. (FCS) is the North American industry leader in water leak detection technology. The company supplies highly sophisticated leak detection products. These include correlators that are used to pinpoint the position leaks in underground water mains, leak noise loggers to localize the general area of a leak, pressure controllers to minimize leakage and flow/pressure loggers to monitor water supply networks. Together with ground microphones for leak surveys and leak position confirmation, this makes up a complete set of equipment for virtually all leak detection and pressure management needs.

Established in 1978, the company relocated from its Austin, Texas roots to Milford, Ohio. The move was precipitated by the acquisition of FCS by Halma PLC.

FCS products are installed with over 1000 utilities throughout the United States and the world. FCS  products are the producst  of choice by most professional leak detection firms and consultants, particularly in North America. FCS staff pride themselves on customer support, service and responsiveness.

FCS was the first organization to patent leak correlation technology in the United States on April 11, 1978. Since that time, five generations of correlators have evolved leading to the TriCorr Touch. Ongoing Research & Development, field application, field testing and extensive customer feedback has resulted in dramatic performance improvements since the initial patent.

By implementing a thorough water system survey program using FCS equipment, water utilities all across the US have been able to save time and money by:

• Reducing and recovering lost, unaccounted for water due to system leakage.
• Eliminating added costs from digging “dry holes” when searching for leaks.
• Minimizing the threat of litigation resulting from catastrophic system failures.
• Reducing man-hour expenses through localizing and pinpointing leaks more productively by using state-of-the-art technology.
