Overview
The Wireless Water Detection Disc Sensor detects when water is present by completing the circuit between the two probe points on the bottom of the puck sensor. When water is present the sensor will immediately turn on the RF radio and transmit the data to the wireless gateway and UpKeep Edge Sensor Monitoring and Notification System, allowing the user to immediately receive an SMS text or email alert. The sensor can be configured to detect both the presence and non-presence of water.
How They Work
- The sensor measures water detection data using its integrated sensing element at configurable intervals.
- Readings are transmitted wirelessly via the protocol to the UpKeep Edge gateway 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
