Benefits of Leak Detection Systems

Leak detection enhances operations by allowing you to carefully manage and keep an eye on the amounts of water consumption.

It can help you find a leak far more quickly and stop it from getting out of hand, potentially costing a lot of money to fix if you didn’t have one in place.

In this article, we’ll be taking a look at how leak detection systems work and why the Aquitron AT-WFM Leak Detection Unit is the must-have to monitor for leak detection.

How Do Leak Detection Systems Work?

Leak detection units work by monitoring how much water is passing through the meter, which is installed in the pipework.

If there is a lot more water passing through the meter, the leak detection unit will sound an alarm and flush an alerting message on the BMS to notify the user that there may be a possible leak happening.

This will not only save any damage from happening but will also save on any costly repairs having to be made in order to fix the damage. So the cost of having one installed will more than likely be much less than the cost of repairing water damage.

How Does The Aquitron AT-WFM Leak Detection System Work?

A control panel and one or more pulsed water meters make up the AT-WFM.

The meter coves the whole pipe and runs in the ground until it reaches the building for entry.

A second meter would be installed inside the building next to the main isolation valve or stop-cock.

This meter would keep an eye out for possible leaks inside the structure.

The AT-WFM comes with an audio/visual alarm system so that if the flow exceeds the pre-limits set, it will alert the user to a potential leak.

The Aquitron AT-WFM can also be linked up to the BMS to provide a remote indication of the possible leak.
