Overview
Instant alerts from Water Detect Plus Sensors help defend against weather, faulty plumbing, and equipment failure. In addition to detection, the sensors monitor for waterabsence—helpful for sanitation and remediation.
How They Work
- The sensor measures water detection data using its integrated sensing element at configurable intervals.
- Readings are transmitted wirelessly to the UpKeep Edge gateway via the 900 MHz protocol, with Encrypt-RF security.
- UpKeep Edge processes incoming data in real time, comparing readings against user-defined alert thresholds.
- When thresholds are breached, instant notifications are sent via text, email, or phone call to designated team members.
- All data is logged for historical trending, compliance reporting, and predictive maintenance analysis.
Applications
- Leak detection under equipment
- Basement flood alerts
- Server room protection
- HVAC drip pan monitoring

Questions about this sensor
- What does the Enterprise - Water Detect Plus Sensor, 3' Lead measure?
- Instant alerts from Water Detect Plus Sensors help defend against weather, faulty plumbing, and equipment failure. In addition to detection, the sensors monitor for waterabsence—helpful for sanitation and remediation.
- Where is the Enterprise - Water Detect Plus Sensor, 3' Lead typically installed?
- Common placements include leak detection under equipment, basement flood alerts, server room protection. It uses an AA-battery enclosure, which trades a little size for the longest battery life in the range.
- What does it need to work?
- An UpKeep Edge gateway within about 1,200 ft. One gateway supports 50 or more sensors, and readings reach UpKeep over the gateway's cellular, Ethernet, or Modbus connection.
- What happens when a reading is out of range?
- UpKeep opens a work order against the asset and notifies the assigned technician. You set the thresholds for each water detection sensor individually.
