Advantages of UV Fluorescent dyes for leak detection
UV fluorescent tracer dyes provide instant visibility under
ultraviolet light, enabling rapid and efficient localisation of leaks in
water,
coolant,
oil, or
gas systems.
Their reactivity under UV exposure allows professionals to pinpoint even the smallest anomalies in plumbing networks, sanitation systems, or industrial circuits.
These dyes are compatible with a variety of systems and integrate seamlessly into preventive maintenance protocols, making them indispensable tools for technicians and engineers responsible for leak testing and system integrity.
Unlike traditional methods, fluorescent dye leak tracing is non-invasive and significantly reduces diagnostic costs by eliminating the need for disassembly. It provides real-time micro-leak detection even in complex environments.
Our UV tracer dyes come in multiple formulations tailored to industrial and environmental requirements, ensuring maximum versatility and durability—even under high pressure or extreme temperature conditions.
Key Benefits of UV Tracer Dyes :
- Fast and precise leak localisation

Fluorescein and tracer dyes for leak detection
Fluorescein is a water-soluble dye widely used as a tracer in industrial and environmental applications. It is especially valued for its strong fluorescence intensity when exposed to UV light.
Uses and benefits of Fluorescein :
- Optimal traceability: Its intense fluorescence allows precise identification of leaks, infiltrations, and liquid migration within hydraulic or industrial infrastructures.
- Broad application spectrum: Used in drinking water networks, wastewater systems, cooling circuits, ground infiltration studies, and hydrological analysis.
- Safe and eco-friendly: Non-toxic, biodegradable, and compliant with environmental regulations, making it suitable for sensitive environments such as the food industry or environmental research.
- Multiple formulations: Available in powder, concentrated liquid, or ready-to-use solution, adapted to every sector’s specific needs.
- Simple and effective use: Can be injected directly into a circuit, diluted in water, or applied using dedicated syringes for even distribution.
Our fluorescent tracing solutions are engineered to meet all professional demands.
We also supply all-in-one tracing kits combining dyes, injection systems, and UV lamps to guarantee fast and effective inspection.
Our experts guide you through product selection and technical implementation to ensure optimal performance for your specific application.
Professional UV lamps for precision leak detection
UV lamps are essential tools to maximise the performance of
fluorescent tracers.
They enable the detection of the most minute leaks—even those visible only under specific UV wavelengths. Thanks to their intensity and wavelength accuracy, they ensure optimal leak visibility across various industrial and technical environments.
How do UV lamps work ?
UV lamps emit ultraviolet light that activates the fluorescent particles within the tracer dye. This reaction reveals leaks or abnormal flows instantly.
Their efficiency depends on several parameters:
- Wavelength: Usually between 365 nm and 395 nm, optimised for maximum fluorescence.
- Light intensity: Higher power enhances visibility even in daylight or bright industrial conditions.
- Lens and reflector design: Determines the beam range and surface coverage.
At Fluotracking, our UV lamps are available in several models and kits tailored to maintenance professionals’ specific needs.
Each lamp type offers distinctive characteristics based on application and detection intensity.
