Our Blogs highlight what is happening in our industry, new CMR products and enhancements to existing CMR products.
To add to our range of water detection alarms, CMR Electrical have developed a battery powered water leak sensor that can operate as a stand alone unit or communicate to a remote alarm unit, wire free, using radio signals. For easy of locating the leak, the sensor has its own built in “Battery Low” or […]
We have upgraded our oil leak detection systems to allow each zone to be fitted with up to two sensors. Both the OLS2-3, 2 zone alarm and OLS4-3, 4 zone alarm products have been updated, allowing between 1 to 4 sensors on the OLS2-3 and between 3 and 8 sensors, on the OLS4-3. Unlike […]
We have seen an increase in the number of enquiries for water leak detection to monitor underground water pipes. Applications include water supply to cattle drinking troughs, farm outbuilding or hosepipe points, to monitoring water pipes between domestic houses and outbuildings such as greenhouse, garage or swimming pool. Underground water leaks can go undetected for […]
CMR Electrical have launched a new water leak detection system specifically for houses and flats. Available in both 1/2″ (15mm) and 3/4″ (22mm), the WLW has been designed to provide peace of mind by protecting houses and flats 24/7 from water leaks, burst pipes or unintentional water usage, i.e., leaving a tap flowing. Monitoring the […]
One of the questions we occasionally get asked is “do you do a distance to leak water detection system”, the answer is “yes”. Our DMWD unit can have up to four zones and will display the measurement from the controller to the leak… so why don’t we recommend it for critical areas? What other disadvantages […]
CMR Electrical have updated their LD32 multizone water leak detection system. The new system like its predecessor, has been designed to continuously monitor a large number of areas for water leaks. Water leaking from tea points, vending machines, kitchen equipment, water purifying equipment etc. can cost thousands of pounds to rectify as well as […]
It has come to our attention that some companies within the UK are selling water detection cable imported from China where the cable is not a solid mass, but can be untwisted as shown in the following picture. A loose structure such as this can lead to potential false or intermittent water detected alarms or […]
CMR Electrical have recently Supply a number of BREEAM compliant Major water leak detection system type BLDA1-2 for the newly refurbished building at 55-93 Knightsbridge London. The Grade II listed building was originally designed by architect WD Caroe, and erected in 1902 for the Church Commissioners. When finished, the building with it’s 100m + facade, will […]
Detecting an oil leak is not the same as detecting a water leak. Unlike water, oil does not conduct electricity so can’t be detected by passing a small current through it and looking for a return signal, as you can with water. There are three main types of systems on the market to detect an […]
We often get asked the question “Do your water leak detection systems need specialised installation and maintenance”, to which we answer “NO”. CMR Electrical was setup in 2003 by a group of people with over 25 years’ experience in the design and manufacturing of water leak detection equipment. The aim then, and now, is to […]
What will help to prevent water leak damage To help prevent water damage you could buy and fit a CMR Electrical water leak alarm system to alert you when a water leak is found. “but what happens if I’m not at home or the office is shut” Fit our SMS text […]
After a number of requests from our customers, we have enhanced our RTA range of room over temperature alarms to include both high and low alarm settings. Two systems are available, one with a temperature range of 0°C to +50°C the other -30°C to +50°C. Both systems display the current temperature in centigrade and contain […]
A large internet hosting centre in London having experienced a devastating water leak from cooling equipment contained within their seventh-floor plant-room, contacted CMR Electrical to design and supply all necessary water leak detection equipment, to provide an early warning system to help limit the damage if it ever happened again. Apparently, the leak was only […]
CMR Electrical Ltd have lunched an updated version of their combined water leak detection and room over temperature alarm system. The new unit known as the CWT-2 alarm, will replace the old but well established CWT system that used standard thermostats, had no temperature display and just LED lamp indication lamps. The new unit […]
Water leaks can cause extensive damage to property and equipment as well as generating disruption and inconvenience. The following pictures show how a long term small undetected water leak resulted in extensive damage to walls, floor and facilities in a care home leading to the closure of six bedrooms and the temporary relocation of six […]
Water can be detected using a number of methods such as ultrasonic transducers, optical sensors and water flow monitoring. Most of the systems on the market today are based on the conductivity principle, where an electrical signal is passed through the leaking water thereby completing a circuit. Whilst there is nothing wrong with this type […]
We often get asked for advice on the type of sensor best used for particular applications, so we have compiled the following list to help our customers. All the following sensors work with any of our range of Water Leak Alarms. Air Conditioning Drip Trays Two sensors are available, the optical DTS sensor designed to […]
To help prevent expensive reconstruction work and loss of revenue due to water damage caused by leaks or burst pipework, two floors of the newly built Aerotel hotel at London Heathrow’s terminal 3 have been fitted with two multi zonal water leak detection systems manufactured by CMR Electrical Ltd. The 82 bedroom hotel has been […]
