Double Containment Piping Systems

At John C. Digertt, Inc., safety is our priority. We understand the critical role of secure piping systems in transporting hazardous fuels, chemicals, waste, and solvents. Our expertise lies in providing double containment piping systems, ensuring these materials travel safely and
securely, both above and below ground.

What are Double Containment Piping Systems?

Double containment piping systems consist of two pipes, one nested within the other. The inner pipe, also known as the carrier pipe, transports the hazardous liquid. The outer pipe, or containment pipe, acts as a secondary layer of protection. In the unfortunate event of a leak in the carrier pipe, the containment pipe captures the liquid, preventing environmental contamination and safeguarding personnel.

Why Choose Double Containment Piping Systems?

• Enhanced Safety: Double containment systems offer an extra layer of protection against leaks, spills, and potential environmental damage. They are particularly crucial for transporting hazardous materials.
• Regulatory Compliance: Many industries are subject to regulations mandating the use of double containment piping systems for specific materials. These systems help ensure compliance with environmental and safety standards.
• Peace of Mind: Double containment systems provide peace of mind for facility owners and operators. The knowledge that leaks will be contained minimizes the risk of environmental damage and costly cleanup operations.

Leak Detection Systems: An Added Layer of Security

Early leak detection is vital for mitigating the impact of a potential leak in a double wall containment piping system. John C. Digertt, Inc. offers a variety of leak detection solutions,

• Cable Leak Detection: These systems utilize sensor cables placed within the interstitial space between the carrier and containment pipes. The cables can pinpoint the exact location of a leak, allowing for prompt repair.
• Probe Leak Detection: Probe leak detection systems employ strategically placed sensors within the containment pipe to identify leaks. These systems offer a cost-effective solution for leak detection.
