Sensor with Leak Detection Cable Type RWM

The unit has been designed to detect the presents of water or any conductive liquid. The unit detects water by pulsing a bi-directional current (AC) across the sensor.

A relay output is provided which can be used to send a water detected signal to a Building Management System (BMS) or any existing alarm system such as a Fire alarm panel or burglar alarm. A sensitivity adjustment potentiometer is provided within the module allowing the detection from just small amounts to a large amount of a conductive liquid across the sensor. If required the unit can be set at our factory to ultra sensitive allowing the detection of deionised water. A range of sensors can be provided from cable which detects along its entire length to spot probes/pads for detection in drip trays, sump tanks or high/low level detection. Cable would be used to detect leaks along pipe runs or under equipment such as air conditioning plant ensuring that any leak will be detected.
