spotWater Detector - An Advanced Water Sensor

The spotWater detector has an advanced microprocessor based design capable of detecting even distilled water. The entire sensor circuit is encased in epoxy allowing it to function while submerged in water. This water sensor detects water leaks and flooding with a WET/DRY indication in software. SNMP polling via snmp get is available.

This detector plugs into any AKCP intelligent sensorProbe or securityProbe controllers. The controller will retain any error condition until it is read via an snmp get. If the sensor encounters a critical condition at any time it will report that condition before it returns to a normal state. When an alarm condition is activated, the description and location of the fault can be sent via email or SNMP trap on the controller.

A web browser interface is available. 

Why distilled water can be detected.

The spotWater Detector contains microprocessor controlled capacitance measuring circuitry to provide a more precise detection than standard commercially available water sensors which measure the resistance of water. The resistance of water can vary depending upon the impurities in the water. Normal resistance type monitors are unable to detect the presence of distilled water due to its high resistance.
