» Single Zone Water Detection System:  AquaTraq

AquaTraq water leak detection units were developed to provide great value single-zone security against the ingress of water into areas housing high-technology or high-value equipment and are supplied completely ready for use. All they require is screw fixing to the wall, a local power supply, and connection the sensor. AquaTraq Units can be supplied with optional Battery Backup Pack for 10 hours operation during a mains power failure. 

AquaTraq Units operate on the proven Aqualeak principle of utilising an AC field sensing signal to detect water and can monitor from the full range of Aqualeak linear leak detection sensor cables, sensor tape or from multiple water detection sensor probes, sensor pads, overflow/level sensors etc. 

Units have three levels of indication; ZONE HEALTHY, ZONE FAULT and WATER DETECTED. An audible alarm is activated by any abnormal condition and is silenced by pressing the mute button. The alarm is designed to automatically reset, requiring no operator input, but alarm lights remain on until the condition clears and this too automatically resets when alarm clears. 

The AquaTraq system has two sets of changeover alarm contacts. The ‘Alarm’ relay is for linking to an optional Aqualeak Remote Alarm Unit  or to link to a BMS system, to switch sump pumps or solenoid valves, or to shut down process equipment or power supplies etc. The 'Reset' relay can be used by the BMS to ‘time/date stamp’ when the mute button was pressed to indicate when the alarm was acted upon, or to mute an external sounder. 

The leader cable distance between the AquaTraq and the sensor/s, or the maximum linear sensor cable sensing distance, should not exceed 50m. The AquaTraq System can also be linked to the optional Aqualeak Automatic Telephone Dialling Unit which telephones remote addresses to advise that the emergency has occurred.
