As a manufacturer of water immersion sensors, we will explain to you that the main function of water immersion sensors is to monitor whether there is water leakage within the detected range, and immediately issue an alarm when water leakage is detected to prevent losses and hazards caused by water leakage accidents. Its core function lies in real-time monitoring and rapid response, ensuring that corresponding measures can be taken in the early stages of liquid leakage, thereby avoiding possible property damage or safety issues. The following is a specific explanation of the function of the water immersion sensor:
Working principle: The water immersion sensor mainly works based on the principle of liquid conductivity, but it is necessary to distinguish between the working principles of point type, non positioning type, and positioning type. There are differences in the working principles between the three. For example, the working principle of non positioning type: when the liquid comes into contact with the sensing wire, the core wires of the two sensing wires become conductive when they encounter the liquid, forming a circuit. The leakage controller detects the leakage situation and converts it into a dry contact output signal to issue an alarm. Water immersion sensors usually have two output states, normally open and normally closed, which can be selected according to actual needs.
Diverse types: Water immersion sensors are divided into three categories: point type, non positioning type, and positioning type. Both non positioning and positioning water immersion sensors use the principle of liquid conductivity, while point type water immersion sensors use the principle of refraction and reflection of light at different cross-sections of the medium to detect liquid leakage after the probe is immersed in water.
Design Structure: The design of water immersion sensors is not static. Water immersion sensors have a wide range of application scenarios and multiple detection objects, so they are designed to be corrosion-resistant, high-strength, high-temperature resistant, anti-interference, and capable of detecting hydrocarbon fuels. They are mainly designed to be suitable for various complex environments and detection objects.
Response speed: The water immersion sensor has the ability to quickly detect and respond in real-time, with a typical response time of ≤ 1 second. But the leak detection controller can be adjusted for sensitivity, which requires adjusting the response speed according to the actual application scenario.
Application scenarios: Water immersion sensors are widely used in places that require waterproofing, such as data centers, communication rooms, power stations, warehouses, archives, etc. It is also applicable to various environments such as residential, commercial buildings, and industrial production sites, effectively preventing various problems caused by liquid leakage.
