Leak Detection System

Water damage due to leaks in drinking water systems can cause enormous damage. Installations or supply lines are to be considered as critical components, since they can create a risk of flooding. A leak may lead to the destruction of highly sensitive fixtures, e.g. in computer rooms and archives. The interruption of operation on business premises can also mean a loss of customers. Data loss and spending time re-commissioning are very costly. If intangible assets are affected in the private sector, the personal loss is usually irreparable. In property which is used seasonally (e.g. holiday apartments) and which is left unattended for a long time, leaks can lead to immense damage.

Applications

Example server room

Three KHS PLUS quarter turn stop valves are connected in parallel to the leakage control system. The water sensors are located in the false floor in the server room.

In this way, leaks are detected at an early stage. To prevent a failure of the computers causing data loss, as the three KHS PLUS quarter turn stop valves cut off PWC, PWH and PWH-C at the same time. The installation of an alarm horn supports leak detection acoustically. It is also possible to forward a fault signal to the BMS.

Utility room example

Thanks to targeted detection in a utility room, the supply of cold drinking water inlet pipe is closed if a leak is detected. This happens both in the event of leaks in the drinking water system as well as in heating-related leaks in the roof, preventing damage to the structure and building installations. In large buildings it is possible to forward the alarm directly to the building management system (BMS).

Specify operating times

Laundrette with timer program example

With the timer program, opening times can be set for dental surgeries, laboratories or laundrettes. For example, the drinking water lines to the washing machines are automatically closed after the laundrette closes. Preventing damage - safely and reliably.
