Flood Detection System

Leaks are common and if allowed to continue unchecked can cause extensive damage, disruption, and loss.

Westminster's unique Flood Detection System range of leak sensors and control systems offer flexibility, reliability, value, and are easy to install and use. The Flood Detection System allows early action to be taken to prevent damage, reduce disruption and limit loss.

Flood Detection Systems are installed in sensitive and critical areas to give an early warning of leakage from any source, e.g. pipes, tanks and air conditioning plants.

The systems works using lengths of water sensing detection cable or point sensors which are connected individually, or in groups, to multi-zone control panels (Flood Detection System) or to self-contained single control modules (Flood Detection Solo). Each sensor or group of sensors is allocated a separate zone with each zone having its own address.

Flood Detection zoned systems are flexible, accurate, easy to install, use and maintain and offer the best cost / benefit option for any application large or small, complex or simple.

Essential benefits of a zoned system

  • Each zone is separate - an event in one zone has no effect on the normal function and monitoring of adjacent zones or the rest of the system;
  • Each zone is continually monitored for either a leak or system fault - each alarm is shown separately;
  • True multi-zoning - the system can handle, display and report any number of simultaneous and / or consecutive alarms;
  • No minimum or maximum zone size;
  • Separate outputs / communication can be provided for each zone;
  • Alarm prioritisation - "double-knock" - for important zones;
  • Better control of costs through choice of zone size;
  • "Mix & Match" different types of sensor from zone to zone;
  • Easy to understand and use;
  • Easy to service and repair;
  • Easy to expand in future.
