Targeted Water Leak Detection with the Browan LoRaWAN® Sensor & Probe
Protect specific areas and equipment from water damage with the Browan Water Leak Sensor (TBWL100). This LoRaWAN® sensor utilizes a detachable probe connected via a 1-meter cable, allowing you to precisely monitor for leaks in hard-to-reach locations, drip pans, or under specific pipe joints while keeping the main sensor unit protected. Combined with integrated temperature and humidity sensing, the TBWL100 provides crucial environmental data and early warnings to prevent costly repairs and operational disruptions. Manusphere offers integration support to incorporate this targeted monitoring into your facility management strategy.
Precise Leak Monitoring Where It Counts
The TBWL100’s unique design offers specific advantages for industrial and commercial leak detection:
- Challenge: Monitoring for leaks in confined spaces, specific points like drip trays, or areas where the main sensor body cannot be directly placed due to space or environmental constraints.
- Solution: Features a water sensing probe connected by a 1-meter cable via a standard Micro-USB port, allowing flexible placement of the detection point while the main sensor unit remains accessible and in a suitable environment.
- Challenge: Needing early notification of water presence to prevent damage to sensitive equipment or materials.
- Solution: Provides immediate alerts via the LoRaWAN® network as soon as the connected probe detects water, enabling swift response and mitigation.
- Challenge: Understanding ambient environmental conditions in the vicinity of potential leak points.
- Solution: Integrates temperature (±1°C accuracy) and humidity (±5% accuracy) sensors within the main unit, offering valuable context alongside leak detection alerts.
- Challenge: Deploying sensors easily in various indoor locations without needing dedicated power wiring.
- Solution: The compact main sensor unit is powered by a single ½ AA Li-SOCl2 battery with up to 16 months of estimated lifetime (*dependent on reporting frequency and environment) and communicates wirelessly over LoRaWAN®.
Key Features & Benefits for Targeted Monitoring
Detachable Probe for Flexible Placement
The key feature is the 1-meter cabled probe connecting via Micro-USB. This allows you to position the water sensing contacts precisely where needed – under pipes, in sumps, beneath equipment – while the main sensor body stays clear.
Combined Environmental Sensing
Monitor temperature and humidity alongside leak detection using the integrated sensors in the main unit, providing a more complete picture of conditions in the monitored area.
Reliable LoRaWAN® Communication
Leverages LoRaWAN® 1.0.3 for long-range, low-power wireless data transmission of leak alerts and environmental readings (EU & US frequencies supported).
Compact & Battery-Powered
The small sensor body (50x50x20mm) is easy to mount or place. Powered by a single ½ AA battery for extended operation, reducing installation complexity and maintenance frequency.
Designed for Indoor Use
Suitable for deployment in typical indoor commercial and industrial environments with an operating temperature of 0°C to 50°C and an IP50 equivalent rating for the main sensor body.
