Abstract: This paper discusses progress at the Institute of Gas Technology over the last 4 years on a sonic leak pinpointer for medium- and highpressure gas distribution systems (15 to 90 psi), including the current efforts to build and field-test a commercial prototype. Important advances were made in sensitivity to leak signals and elimination of background noises. These advances make the technique a practical tool for pinpointing leaks when the gas has migrated or has saturated a large area. Previous successes and failures of sonic leak detection are briefly discussed as background for understanding the sonic method in general.
