In the digital age, data centres, server rooms and communication hubs are the backbone of countless operations. Ensuring their uninterrupted functionality is paramount. One of the threats to these mission-critical operations is the risk of leaks from water, refrigerant gases and oil – which can lead to significant damage, operational downtime, financial loss and reputation damage.
Data centres rely heavily on cooling systems with CRAC units and often extensive pipework, in order to maintain optimal operating temperatures. These systems, while essential, introduce potential points of failure where leaks can occur.
Water ingress, for instance, can compromise electrical systems, leading to short circuits or equipment failure. Similarly, refrigerant gas leaks not only diminish cooling efficiency but also pose environmental and health risks.
Andel's Floodline® systems offer robust and flexible solutions to these challenges. Designed with versatility in mind, Floodline® provides:
Zonal and distance measuring leak detection: Monitor vast areas with precision, ensuring even the smallest leaks are promptly identified.
Hybrid monitoring capabilities: Simultaneously track water, oil, and gas leaks, along with temperature and humidity fluctuations, all through a single integrated system.
Automated response mechanisms: In the event of a detected leak, Floodline® can trigger alarms, send notifications and initiate automatic shut-off valves to mitigate damage.
Integration with Building Management Systems (BMS): Seamlessly incorporate Floodline® into existing infrastructure for centralised monitoring and control. Floodline® systems trigger audio-visual alarms as well as sending onward communication to BMS.
Floodline® sensors are successfully deployed in a number of vulnerable locations, including:
Underfloor and ceiling spaces: Ideal for areas where cabling and pipework are concealed, ensuring comprehensive coverage. Floodline® high-sensitivity water leak sensor cable has a fine, multi-filament cellulosic outer covering which draws liquid into detection cores allowing the system to detect and react to the smallest amounts of water.
Drip trays and HVAC units: The system monitors potential leak points in cooling and heating systems in floor voids and drip trays to protect the server halls, ensuring early leak detection with alarms and automatic valve shut-off systems.
Fuel storage and generator rooms: Detection of oil leaks that could jeopardise back-up power systems.
Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our collaborations with leading global organisations, ensuring their critical infrastructure remains protected against leak-related threats.
With over three decades of experience, Andel stands at the forefront of leak detection innovation. Our Floodline® system is not only award-winning but also comes with a 10-year warranty when enrolled in our Service and Maintenance Plan. We pride ourselves on delivering solutions that are:
Reliable: Proven performance in diverse environments.
Scalable: Adaptable to facilities of all sizes.
Sustainable: Designed with environmental considerations in mind.
