Leak Detection: SeaHawk

The challenge

Fluid leaks contribute to 27 percent of business downtime, damaging facilities, equipment, and other critical resources. A cooling system leak can take down an entire data center.

Without a customized leak-detection solution in place for your facility, you take a high-stakes risk. Between the cost of repairing or replacing damaged assets, lost productivity, and lost business opportunities, the total cost of a fluid leak can escalate quickly. One pharmaceutical company lost a $250,000 blood analysis machine overnight, due to an undetected overhead plumbing leak.

RLE’s answer

RLE’s experienced specialists can customize a leak detection and notification solution to the unique requirements of your facilities, whether a single server closet or an entire data center, a manufacturing plant or a research library.

Our patented leak detection cable reliably senses escaped conductive fluids—water, glycol, alcohol, others—and notifies you immediately so you can act immediately.

Range of capabilities

You can mix and match spot detectors with sensing cable for a versatile solution.

Spot detection—for areas where fluid is contained, such as small rooms, air conditioning drip pans, and around floor drains. Products: LD300 LD1000

Zone Detection—for open areas where the path of a potential leak cannot be clearly defined:

• Single-zone products cover one defined area of installed sensing cable or a combination of spot detectors and sensing cable. Products: LD300 LD1000

• Multi-zone products have many inputs for sensing cable or spot detectors and can detect leaks in several defined areas or zones. Products: LD1500 LD2000 LD5100 LDRA6

• Distance Read Systems—for hidden areas where the location of a leak is difficult to visually identify and where the path of a potential leak cannot be clearly defined. Products: LD1500 LD2000 LD5100

• Combination of Leak Detection and Simple Alarm Summary—for control areas, such as in a guard station, 911 call center, or network operations center. Easy-to-interpret audible and visual annunciation for leaks or other alarms. Products: LDRA6
