Water detection sensor for industrial applications

Data loss, irreparable damage, lost revenue—all could have been avoided through the early detection with a Monnit Industrial Water Rope Sensor.

When liquid contacts the sensor’s conductive polymer rope, the sensor instantly activates its onboard RF radio and transmits water presence data to the iMonnit Sensor Configuration and Management software and facilitates a near-instantaneous text, call, or email alert.

The Water Rope Sensor detects conductive liquids anywhere along the length of the detection rope by using two wires covered with conducting polymer. When water or conductive liquid contacts the rope, the sensor will immediately turn on the RF radio. Then, the sensor transmits the data to the wireless gateway and the iMonnit Online Sensor Monitoring and Notification System, allowing you to immediately receive an alert by SMS text, email, or voice call. The sensor rope quickly dries so it can reset.


More ways to monitor for leaks and spills

The sensor comes with an industrial battery included with the life of up to 7 years. This water detection sensor comes with 10 feet of a sensing lead or detection rope. Additional 10-ft sections are available and can be connected up to 100 feet.

All industrial sensors are enclosed in a reliable, weatherproof NEMA-rated enclosure that are constructed for both indoor and outdoor use. These rugged enclosures protect the sensor circuitry against;

  • Falling dirt
  • Wind-blown dust
  • Rain, sleet, snow, splashing water, and hose-directed water
  • Ice formation on the enclosure
  • Increased resistance to corrosion


Features

  • Impressive wireless range of up to 1,200 feet through walls
  • Frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
  • Improved interference immunity
  • Improved power management for longer battery life
  • Encrypt-RF® Security (Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange + AES-128 CBC for sensor data messages)
  • Stores 2000 to 4000 readings if gateway connection is lost (non-volatile flash, persists through the power cycle)
    • 10-minute heartbeats = ~ 22 days
    • 2-hour heartbeats = ~ 266 days
  • Over-the-air updates
  • Free iMonnit basic online wireless sensor monitoring and notification system to configure sensors, view data and set alerts via SMS text and email


Applications

  • Frozen or Burst Pipe Monitoring
  • Reservoir Level Monitoring
  • Storage Unit Monitoring
  • Water Intrusion Monitoring
  • Freezers and coolers
  • Document retention center monitoring
  • Basement water monitoring
  • HVAC system operation and testing
  • Environmental monitoring
  • Boat bilge monitoring

Monnit Gateway Options

An integral component of any IoT network is the gateway. A gateway device allows for data from sensors to be transmitted to the iMonnit software platform.


Monnit Ethernet Wireless Gateway 4

Monnit’s Ethernet Gateways allow your Monnit Wireless Sensors to communicate with the iMonnit™ Online Wireless Sensor Monitoring and Notification System without the need for a PC. Simply provide power and plug the gateway into an open Ethernet network port with an internet connection. It will then automatically connect with our online servers, providing the perfect solution for commercial locations where there is an active internet connection.

Monnit 4G + Ethernet IoT Gateway

The ALTA® by Monnit Wireless IoT Gateway combines a 4G LTE CAT-M1/NB2 cellular engine and Ethernet platform with Monnit’s wireless access point network to aggregate and communicate data from Monnit ALTA Wireless Sensors. The ALTA IoT Gateway allows ALTA Sensors to operate on the world’s leading cellular networks and stay connected to the Internet. The gateway uses AC main power but also has redundant power through a battery backup lasting up to 60 hours.

To meet the global demand for enterprise IoT deployment, the IoT Gateway communicates with the cloud-based iMonnit® monitoring software via cellular transmission, making it ideal for remote locations or where the Internet isn’t available. The RJ-45 Ethernet jack allows local device configuration, diagnostics, and connectivity backup. The IoT Gateway is instrumental in sending sensor notifications via text, email, or call if user-defined conditions are met or exceeded.
