    摘要: Methods and apparatus for leak isolation and detection are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus includes first housing portion to be coupled to a fluid manifold with a first seal positioned therebetween, the manifold corresponding to a thermal cooling loop associated with cooling of a compute device, a second housing portion to be coupled to the first housing portion with a second seal positioned therebetween, the first and second seals to define a substantially sealed internal volume that at least partially surrounds the manifold, and a sensor in the internal volume to detect a presence of leaked fluid in the internal volume.

    摘要: A leak in the membrane of a generally horizontal roof support deck includes dividing the membrane into separate zones and locating a sensor to detect moisture underneath the membrane. A unique digital code address is assigned to sensor where inputs of the sensors are connected to a single power and signaling cable system using a daisy chain. The serial bus controller is to interrogate each of the sensor devices using the address to identify zones where moisture is detected. A transmitting antenna is provided at each sensor which is switched on when moisture is detected for detecting of the sensor from above the membrane by a utility locate device to confirm the location of the sensor.

    摘要: Systems and methods for routing a plumbing line along a wall include tracks having clip-retaining mechanisms and being attachable to the wall; plumbing-retaining members for gripping the plumbing line and being removably anchored to the clip-retaining mechanisms; and covers removably securable to the tracks. The systems and methods can further include a leak detection system comprising strips of conductive material on the tracks, the covers, or both. The strips are connected to a controller configured to detect a short or a voltage change across the strips indicative of a leak in the plumbing line, and to issue an alarm or to shut-off one or more plumbing valves.

    摘要: In some respects, concepts disclosed herein generally concern systems, methods and components to detect a presence of a liquid externally of a desired primary flow path through a segment of a fluid circuit, e.g., throughout a cooling loop. Some disclosed concepts pertain to systems, methods, and components to direct seepage or leakage of a liquid coolant toward a lead-detection sensor. As but one example, some disclosed liquid-cooled heat exchangers incorporate a leak-detection sensor, which, in turn, can couple with a computing environment that monitors for detected leaks, and, responsive to an indication of a detected leak, invokes a task to control or to mitigate the detected leak.

    摘要: A water heater includes a leak detection system. The leak detection system includes a leak sensor assembly that is disposed in a bottom pan of the water heater. The leak sensor assembly includes a sensor housing that has a sensor channel that is formed therein such that the sensor channel is disposed at an elevation from a base of the bottom pan when the sensor housing is disposed on the base of the bottom pan. Further, the leak sensor assembly includes a leak sensor that is disposed in the sensor channel of the sensor housing. The leak sensor detects water that leaks from the water heater and accumulates in the bottom pan when a level of the water in the bottom pan rises to the elevation of the sensor channel and the leak sensor that is disposed therein.

    摘要: There is provided a housing unit having an immersion detection function, as a housing of an electronic device requiring waterproofing.
    A housing unit includes a casing liquid-tightly defining an internal housing space and housing an internal device in the housing space, and an immersion detector that detects whether liquid leak into the housing space of the casing, The casing includes a sealing means for waterproofing a joint, an entryway, or an opening. The immersion detector includes an electrolyte salt and a continuity detector that detects a change in conductivity when the liquid comes into contact with the electrolyte salt. The electrolyte salt is arranged inside the casing and further inside the casing than the sealing means.

    摘要: Particularly, there is provided a liquid detection sensor in which a liquid contact area is formed integrally with a separator, and that improves detection accuracy with a small number of parts. A liquid detection sensor (1) according to the present invention includes a metal-air battery (2) formed by laminating a negative electrode sheet (3), a positive electrode sheet (5) and a separator (4) interposed between the negative electrode sheet (3) and the positive electrode sheet (5), and the separator (4) is formed wider than an area in which the positive electrode sheet (5) and the negative electrode sheet (3) overlap with the separator (4) interposed therebetween, and includes a liquid contact area (4′) exposed from at least one of the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet.

    摘要: A liquid leakage detector, LLD, configured to detect liquid leaking from a liquid containing/guiding element. The LLD comprises a pipe configured to receive liquid leaking from a predefined area of the liquid containing/guiding element and a sensor that detects liquid entering the pipe. The LLD comprises a first connection structure configured to be connected to and hereby bring the LLD into fluid communication with a first liquid transport structure of the liquid containing/guiding element, such that the first connection structure extends from and protrudes from the first liquid transport structure and a second connection structure configured to be connected to and hereby bring the LLD into fluid communication with a second liquid transport structure, such that the second connection structure extends from and protrudes from the second liquid transport structure. The LLD comprises an insulator arranged and configured to electrically separate the sensor from the liquid transport structures.
