DETECT+ RED: Red Liquid Tracer for Leak Detection

An invisible water leak can cause costly damage and significant resource loss, whether in a residential building, an industrial facility, or a complex hydraulic network. How can you quickly and accurately locate the source of the problem without risking harm to the environment or users' health? DETECT+ RED, a non-fluorescent red liquid tracer, is designed to address these challenges. Visible to the naked eye, it detects leaks, infiltrations, and water tightness defects in wastewater, stormwater, and industrial networks, pipelines, tanks, and civil engineering structures. Ready to use, environmentally compliant, and easy to handle, this product is aimed at building professionals, industry experts, and demanding individuals. Discover how this French-made tracer simplifies your diagnostics and optimizes your interventions.

DETECT+ RED is much more than a simple dye: it is a precise, safe, and ecological diagnostic tool, designed to meet the needs of professionals and individuals. Whether you are faced with a leak on a roof, a water tightness defect in a pool, or an infiltration in an industrial network, this tracer offers you a visible, reliable, and easy-to-implement solution. Manufactured in France and compliant with the strictest standards, DETECT+ RED is the reference for tracing and leak detection.

Applications in Building

Roofs and Terraces

DETECT+ RED is particularly suitable for detecting micro-leaks under waterproofing membranes or bituminous coatings. It allows water tightness tests after installation or repair of a roof to confirm the absence of infiltration. Its bright color makes wet areas and slope defects visible, even on large surfaces.

Bathrooms and Pools

In bathrooms, pools, or spas, this tracer makes it easy to locate leaks in basins, plumbing networks, or technical equipment. It also checks the tightness of joints, fittings, and welds, especially in areas hidden under tiles or built-in parts.

Pipes and Networks

For buried pipes and networks, DETECT+ RED traces the path of pipes and accurately locates leak points. It is ideal for flow tests in sanitation, stormwater, or industrial networks. Its clear coloration makes flows and infiltrations visible, even in areas where conventional inspections are difficult.

Industrial Applications

Cooling Circuits

In industrial cooling circuits, DETECT+ RED quickly locates leaks in heat exchangers, closed circuits, or sensitive areas. It can also simulate leaks for preventive maintenance or validate repairs before recommissioning.

Tanks and Vats

The product is very useful for tightness tests on tanks and vats. It highlights defects in welds, fittings, or foundations. Before commissioning or after an intervention, it checks connections and ensures the absence of leaks.

Industrial Processes and Maintenance

In industrial processes, DETECT+ RED traces fluids in closed circuits and identifies losses or contamination in internal networks. It is particularly effective for diagnosing leaks in machines, pumps, or hydraulic systems, where direct inspection is often impossible.

R&D and Simulation

In research and development and laboratory activities, DETECT+ RED is used to study flows and validate hydraulic models thanks to its immediate visibility. It also simulates controlled releases to assess their propagation and environmental impact.

FAQ – DETECT+ RED: Red Liquid Tracer for Leak Detection

For a network of about 100 linear meters with a diameter of 150 mm, dilute 10 to 50 ml of DETECT+ RED in 10 to 20 liters of clear water before injection. Adjust the concentration according to the clarity of the water to be traced. For dirty or turbid water, adjust the concentration until a satisfactory color is obtained.

The liquid version is not compatible with drinking water; it is preferable to use the powder version adapted to drinking water networks, provided that the recommended dosages are respected.

Rinse thoroughly after use, use BRILLANT REMOVER to remove residual traces. Avoid use on absorbent surfaces such as facades, natural stone, joints, etc.

Yes, this tracer is suitable for hydrological applications in natural environments such as canals, dikes, or retention basins.

The red coloration remains visible for up to 48 hours, depending on the conditions of use.
