About Clean Water Pathfinder
Clean Water Pathfinder travels inside active drinking-water mains while normal distribution remains in operation. The robot moves through bends, changes in diameter and branching pipe sections under a pre-programmed mission plan. Its sensing package measures wall condition, corrosion, cracks, deformation, internal geometry and hydraulic behaviour while localisation tools associate findings with positions in the network.
ACWA Robotics introduces and recovers the system through sanitised access equipment designed for potable-water infrastructure. Collected measurements are converted into mapped condition data that utilities can use to prioritise repairs, replacement and leakage programmes. The service covers mission planning, deployment, robot recovery and delivery of the resulting asset information.
