Water Leak Detection Products

Vimpex Hydrosense HS Conventional 2 Zone Leak Detection Panel 230v AC

The new Hydrosense systems provide both linear detection using Hydrowire and point detection using probes. Linear detection Hydrowire is a flexible cable which will continuously monitor large areas. When even a small amount of water or moisture comes into contact with Hydrowire it will trigger an alarm. Point detection is provided by Hydrosense floor or drip tray probes, these are fixed to the floor or drip tray and adjusted to give the required detection level and connected to the control panel via a Hydrosense water leak detection module.

Utilising life safety technology in the design of Hydrosense provides the reliability and integrity of BSi approved fire detection systems, meaning there is virtually no risk of failure, downtime and significantly fewer false alarms.

Vimpex – Water Detection

Linear detection is provided by Hydrowire moisture sensitive cables, which are connected to the control panel via a special Connection Box using a simple two core leader cable, making installation quick and inexpensive.

Available as standard 5 and 10 metre lengths pre-terminated with DIN plugs, Hydrowire is a flexible cable which will continuously monitor large areas. When even a small amount of water or mois­ture comes into contact with Hydrowire it will trigger an alarm. Hydrowire will dry out in around 20 minutes for use again. Each zone requires a junction box and an end of line plug. For areas where continuous detection is not required zone breaker cables are available.  

Vimpex – Floor Mounted Probe

Point detection is provided by Floor, Drip Tray Probes and Float Switches – all connected to the control panel by simple two core leader cable. The Floor Probe is fixed to the floor and adjusted to give the required detection level and connected to the control panel via a junction box. The Drip Tray Probe has exactly the same facilities as the Floor Probe but has a bracket for mounting onto the side of an ACU drip tray. The Float Switch alarm is for use in sump pumps, basements, etc.
