Leak Detection Sensors for Liquids

Liquid Chemical & Industrial Water Leak Detectors from Daitron

Our industrial water leak detectors offer a range of advanced features to ensure precise and reliable performance. These sensors operate on the principle of infrared photo-refraction, utilizing light refraction to accurately detect liquids, regardless of viscosity, reflectivity, or color. They feature a robust design with no moving parts, providing NPN or PNP transistor digital output signals for easy integration.

These liquid leak detection sensors are designed to sit in a drip pan or similar location to detect any accumulating water or liquids. They feature watertight IP67 construction and hold UL (File #E202019) and CE certifications, ensuring compliance with industry standards. Our liquid detection sensors are available with Polypropylene (PP) construction with PVC cable (3 conductor, 28AWG conductors) and a high-purity Teflon (PFA) construction with ETFE cable (3 conductor, 28AWG conductors) for harsh chemical environments.

How Do Industrial Liquid Leak Detection Sensors Work?

Liquid leak detectors operate by using a sensor that monitors an LED light. If the presence of liquid disrupts the light's path, the detector recognizes the leak and triggers the alarm. Even the smallest amount of water or liquid will cause these detectors to activate the alarm. Liquid leak detection sensors are typically placed in drip pans or similar locations to monitor for leaks.

How Accurate Are Chemical & Industrial Water Leak Detectors?

Liquid leak detection sensors are exceptionally accurate, with a response time of less than one second when detecting water. The innovative LED light system within the sensors is capable of detecting even the smallest amount of water or liquid chemicals.
