Protection against water leakage: types of protection against leaks, device and principle of operation, useful advice

Intelligent home and apartment security systems have long been involved and work excellently in European countries. Moreover, protective systems are a complete set of equipment - connect and use. The system will detect, protect and save. What prevents our compatriots from installing automatic protection systems that are actively included in everyday life, in apartments and country houses.

Prospective protective security devices in the apartment

Modern security devices - automatic switches, gas alarms and fire alarm systems have already firmly entered the everyday life. It is known that the cause of financial problems and the need to repair is leakage or leakage of water to your apartment or neighbor.

However, the device to protect against water leaks has not yet enjoyed mass popularity. In vain! Water leakage protection systems in the apartment are able to quickly assess the resulting flood and instantly prevent it. Understand the economic feasibility of using protective systems from leaks will help study the device.

Organization of protective systems

The device for protection against leaks is based on the achievements of microprocessor technology and the component composition of automatic control systems.

components of the system

Existing protective systems against leaks and depressurization of HVS and heating systems are a complex of equipment, the components of which are:

  • signal passive leakage sensors with floor fixing
  • autonomous controllers with uninterrupted power supply and the presence of high-current linear inputs for sensors and actuators of the armature with indication of rapid radio signal warning
  • electric ball valves ½ and ¾ automatically shut off the water supply in the pipes.

The components of the protection system are subject to a strict algorithm developed by the device manufacturers. The leading position belongs to the system Gidrolock.

leakage protection algorithm

The scheme of the protection algorithm is based on the functions of controlling passive sensors installed in the places of probable leaks (sinks, toilet, bath and washing machine) and the operation of ball electric cranes.

When flooding the sensor automatically transmits a short-term signal to the controller, which transmits the alarm signal to the shut-off valve.

Monitoring and triggering of components the system carries out continuously in real time, providing better protection from water leaks. The algorithm of the protection scheme can be expanded by analyzing the use of running water - the duration of opening the crane or the state of the toilet button, as well as the case of leakage of the water pipe.

Helpful Tips

Manufacturers of protective mechanisms and equipment are still few. We will show that this TM "Gidrolook", "Neptun", "Aquastorozh"  and "AQUASTOP". The importance and effectiveness of domestic water leakage protection systems, which can be found on the Internet, speak eloquently in favor of automation. Naturally, the price of protective systems is reasonably high.

But we buy expensive Chinese iPhones, relying on the quality of the manufacturer. So why not buy protection against water leaks, which will help to choose a comparative assessment. To make an analytical evaluation is preferable to the parameters of existing systems.

How to choose protection against water leaks, comparison of systems

When choosing the protection systems, it is recommended to refer to the parameters:

  • Possibility to connect external devices and emergency water supply
  • Autonomy of uninterrupted power supply.
  • Type of locking mechanism.

  • Parameters of wireless sensors.
  • Connect to GSM-signaling and SMS notifications.
  • Manual and automatic control of the operating position of the shut-off valves.
  • The structure of the ball electric crane (motor power and min overlap time).

Neptune, Aquapontrol, Aquapark and Aquastop

Select the protection system is recommended for the purpose of the complex.

Use a ready-made kit, such as Neptun AquaControl  220V ¾ with 2 wireless leakage sensors, two ball valves from the manufacturer Bugatti Valvosanitaria and a basic control module (Neptun Base).

However, the configuration of the budget variant of the protection system also looks good.

For example, in the system " Aqua Control Wi-Fi Apartment ½"With the regular collection and transfer of data in the form of flow readings and protection from leaks include:

  • passive leakage sensors with floor fixing
  • saures R1 controller
  • electro-ball valve GIDROLOCK WINNER ½
  • standard water meters type Dy 15.

The minimal configuration of the system components, in addition to the main functions, when adjusting the readings in the form of SMS messages and PUSH notifications, will support the information flow of meter readings through the Browser or mobile application.

Helpful Tips

Comparative tables of sensors, cranes and modules help to analyze the protection systems from leaks.

Tables of systems give an idea of ​​the components (capabilities, configuration and management module) with a description.

The sensor tables provide information on the appearance of wired and wireless devices, the shape and overall dimensions, the length of the installation wire and the maximum distance from the controller.

A comparative table of cranes will provide information about the material of the crane, stem, crane and stem seal, the class of the flowing part of the consumed power and the diameter of the connection.
