    Abstract: A liquid tank device (1) comprises a tank housing (2) for storing a liquid (11) within a tank volume (3) inside of the tank housing (2) and further comprises at least one conduit (4, 5, 15) for the liquid (11) that is connected in a liquid- tight manner to a corresponding opening (7, 8, 16, 17) within the tank housing (2) such that the liquid (11) can be supplied to or removed from the tank volume (3) within the tank housing (2) through the opening (7, 8, 16, 17). The liquid tank device (1) also comprises a containment housing (19), whereby the containment housing (19) is arranged on an outer side of the tank housing (2) in such a way that it surrounds at least one opening (8, 16) and an adjacent section (18) of the at least one conduit (4, 5, 15). The containment housing (19) can comprise an opening (23) for the conduit (4, 5, 15) or for a power line (12) that runs through the corresponding opening (8, 16, 13) of the tank housing (2) into the containment housing (19). The containment housing (15) confines in a liquid-tight manner a containment volume (17) for any liquid (11) leaking in the vicinity of the opening (7, 8, 13) of the tank housing (2).

    Abstract: A leakage mitigation system includes a leakage detection device having a canister configured to: (i) contain a first reactant and a second reactant and, (ii) based on a volume of liquid leaked from a tank, allow the first reactant and the second reactant to react with each other to produce a gas. A shut-off valve coupled to an inlet pipe of the tank is configured to actuate between an open condition and a closed condition. Further, a conduit extending between the leakage detection device and the shut-off valve allows flow of the gas from the leak detection device to the shut off valve. In order to mitigate the leakage of water, the shut-off valve is actuated between the open condition and the closed condition based on the pressure exerted thereon by the flow of the gas.

    Abstract: A leakage mitigation system to trigger a preventive action against detected leakage from a liquid enclosure, includes a leakage detection device disposed along base of the liquid enclosure. The system includes an absorbent that actuates the leakage detection device from a first state to a second state based on a volume of liquid leaked from the liquid enclosure. The device includes a valve coupled to an inlet pipe of the liquid enclosure and configured to allow flow of liquid through the inlet pipe in an open condition thereof and restrict flow of liquid through the inlet pipe in a closed condition thereof. The system further includes a shut-off actuator coupled to the valve and configured to actuate the valve from the open condition to the closed condition in response to the device being actuated from the first state to the second state.

    Abstract: A screen cover for attaching to an open end of a conduit of a water heater is provided. The screen cover includes a first diametric portion having a first diameter and a second diametric portion having a second diameter. The first diameter is greater than the second diameter. The first and second diametric portions are coaxially aligned and configured to allow flow of air or gas therethrough. The screen cover includes a shoulder portion defined between the first diametric portion and the second diametric portion. The screen cover further includes a mesh disposed at a first opening of the first diametric portion. The mesh prevents entry of external objects into the water heater through the open end of the conduit.
