Buy this sensor to detect water leakage. The commercial water sensor amplifies, shapes, and compares the water input signal based on the impedance change of the detection electrode after it is immersed in water through the signal processing circuit, and outputs a dry contact or high and low-level change signal to indicate whether there is water at the location of the detector. Relay output NO or NC, and the voltage can be selected from 5V/12V/24V/7-36V.

Tips: What is a water leakage sensor?

The water leakage sensor is a device designed to detect the presence of water in areas where it shouldn't be, helping to prevent potential water damage. These sensors are commonly used in homes, offices, and industrial environments to monitor for leaks in areas like basements, bathrooms, kitchens, or near water heaters, washing machines, and pipes.

The basic principle behind a water leakage sensor is that it detects moisture or water through two or more metallic probes. When water makes contact with these probes, it completes an electrical circuit, triggering an alarm or notification. Some advanced sensors can also monitor for humidity changes, which can indicate slow leaks or condensation issues.

The benefits of using a water leakage sensor include early detection of leaks, which can prevent costly damage to property and belongings, reduce water waste, and avoid potential mold growth. They are easy to install and provide an added layer of protection, particularly in places prone to leaks or flooding.
