Isolation Trace

This trace is run on Gas and Water networks.

The purpose of the Valve Isolation trace is to identify valves that need to be operated (closed) to prevent flow to a location. The results include the area affected if the valve is closed and the open valves that must be closed to isolate the area. Running this trace helps determine valves to be operated to prevent continued flow in the event of a leak, or valves to be operated to accomplish a scheduled outage in a designated location.

The trace itself delivers results based on the pipes and meters impacted by the trace as well as delivering the least number of devices (valves and regulators) necessary to isolate the feature at the starting point of the trace. When the feature is isolated, you are prompted with a message stating the feature is already isolated.
