Prevent significant damage to a leak recognition system

For the majority of people, the beginning of the new year is full of hope and positive. For the unfortunate British companies that are endangered by water leaks, the early months of the year can often be filled with fear and fear.

The wet months in Great Britain are usually at the beginning and at the end of the year with heights of 213 mm rain, which means that business owners are often affected by LECKS on a much larger scale. These leaks can be caused by gaps in a roof, a faulty tap, blocked drains, worn seals or even faulty devices. What is worse, small leaks can often occur in hidden areas and remain unnoticed by manual search queries, which leads to considerable damage before the leak is even realized.

Chris Potts, Marketing Director at Ant Telecom, is of the opinion that the neglect of neglect, lead to serious effects immediately, lead to serious effects and cause structural damage to the premises, whereby wood structures that corrode the metal structures, as well as harmful building materials such as drywall and insulation, can damage. He advises how companies can protect themselves from the risk of water damage, especially in the moist months of the year.

Reduce the risk of leaks

It is estimated that companies in Great Britain spend more than £ 730 million a year to repair damage caused by water. Early warning at LECKS can therefore be of crucial importance for saving companies and the prevention of great damage and disorders.

There are some ways to combat leaks. The first is to inspect areas such as roofs, pipes and devices on signs of wear and to keep drainage and gutters clear in order to avoid blockages. In addition, maintaining the building infrastructure, the installation of water pressure regulators and training staff to identify early signs of leaks for a proactive approach to minimize the risks of leaks. However, these proposals are not 100% reliable and are associated with costs, not to mention the time they need from employees.

Since small leaks often occur in hidden areas and can remain unnoticed, they can cause extensive damage before their discovery. And even if the employees check certain areas manually, a company is still in danger of lack of damage in difficult to photographic areas, which can significantly damage the company. For this reason, it is recommended to implement a leak detection system in order to offer a more reliable and cheaper solution that continuously monitors high -risk areas around the clock and the companies immediately draw attention to potential problems from the start.

How does a leak recognition system work?

Delete recognition systems use wireless sensors with conductive cables to monitor leaks to devices or a specific area. When water hits the cable, it is recognized by the sensor and an online monitoring portal is updated, which automatically becomes aware of a company's answer team by telephone, SMS or e -mail. The alarm message details that the sensor has triggered and by checking a location map in the portal, the responders can see the sensor and the place of the leak. If necessary, the solution can also automatically switch off the water valves to ensure that further damage stops while the team evaluates the situation and evaluates the situation.

Depending on the application, the conductive cable can be equipped in different shapes and lengths. For example, a wire lattice material can be used to identify leaks in a roof that spreads on the floor to cover a section directly below the roof space. Similarly, a cable that runs around the circumference can be near the device or in an electric riser to capture the presence of water in a certain room, or in an electrical riser to recognize undesirable water.

The sensors are wireless and easy to install. As a result, the costs remain low because you do not need expensive energy or network cabling for electricity or connectivity. These sensors are low, which means that batteries can take a long time, about 2-3 years and can transmit data to an online portal via a 4G gateway. The long -distance functions of the sensors make it possible to cover large areas with a small number of gateways and to monitor areas in which there is no access to 4G, WLAN or the company network.

Save the time of the staff

A large part of each leak monitoring solution is to ensure that alarms are designated and effectively managed. By installing a leak detection system, companies do not need anyone who sits idle, which monitor a screen and distribute the warning messages manually to a response team. All of this can be done automatically. Companies containing this system have access to a safe online portal, which can be accessed via any web browser on a PC, a laptop or a smartphone. This means that registered users can monitor live sensor status via a comprehensive site card and immediately identify the active active (water waters) or inactive sensors (without water recognized). In addition, detailed diagrams and reports provide historical data and show the frequency and location of recognized leaks over time. All of this essentially means that employees can spend their time to focus on other, more urgent tasks.

Not only that, but also companies can save time by deciding which members which alarm and how they get it. All alarm formations are also logged in the system and stamped in time, the team being recognized and closed. This makes it possible to check how alarms are treated and where improvements can be made. It is also recommended to select a provider that can easily expand the solution, and other sensors such as temperature, CO2, energy, electricity, vibration, sound, light, etc. In this way, companies can collect data and monitor the condition of their environments, equipment and devices from a single application from a distance.

Diploma

In the spirit of “New Year, New ME”, companies are encouraged not to lead the operation of water damage to unnecessary costs in 2025. For teams who spend the time to check for water damage, to worry during heavy rainfall or to be surprised about the possible effects of leaks – especially when water penetrates into critical areas such as electrical risers – a solution is. A leak recognition system can help save time in manual surveillance and reduce risks to facilities and content by providing immediate warnings.
