In facility operation, liquid leakage often starts as a small abnormal condition. If it is not detected early, it can lead to equipment damage, production downtime, safety incidents, or contamination risk. Fast and reliable leak detection is especially important in data centers, electrical rooms, semiconductor and display cleanrooms, chemical facilities, power plants, laboratories, and other environments where liquid leakage can create a high operational impact.
YUMINST FLEXLEAK is a flexible water leak detection sensor based on printed electronic circuit technology. The product lineup can be configured for water, chemical solution, oil, petroleum-based liquid, and organic solvent leak detection. Its thin and flexible structure makes it suitable for floors, pipe routes, equipment bases, narrow spaces, and long monitoring sections.
Key Features
Fast Leak Detection
The basic water leak detection type is designed for conductive liquids. Depending on the alarm module setting, detection can be configured within approximately 1 to 10 seconds. This makes it useful for equipment rooms, electrical rooms, server rooms, and other areas where early leak recognition is required.
Multiple Liquid Types
The sensor lineup can support not only water, but also acidic and alkaline chemical solutions, oil, petroleum-based liquids, and organic solvents. The sensor model and alarm module should be selected according to the liquid type, site conditions, and required detection method.
Flexible Film-Type Structure
The sensor is manufactured as a thin film-type product, making it easy to place around floors, equipment bases, piping, narrow installation spaces, and long-distance monitoring areas. Depending on the model, sensor widths such as 28 mm or 38 mm are available.
Leak Location Detection
Distance detection models can identify not only the presence of leakage, but also the approximate leak location. This is practical for wide monitoring areas such as pipe lines, equipment perimeters, and long-distance leak detection routes.
Reusable Design Options
Some models are designed to be reusable after detection. Actual reusability depends on the concentration, properties of the detected liquid, and installation environment, so a preliminary reaction test and application review are recommended before deployment.
Product Lineup
Water Leak Detection
- LK08-T1-ST: Basic water leak detection flexible sensor
- LK08-T1: Distance detection flexible sensor
The basic type is used for water and conductive liquid detection. The distance detection type can be applied where operators need to identify the leak location along the sensor route.
Chemical Solution Detection
- LK14-T1-2001AC: Chemical solution detection flexible sensor
- LK18-T3-3001: Multi-leak alarm module sensor for chemical solution detection
Chemical solution detection models are intended for acidic and alkaline liquids. They are suitable for applications requiring durability, chemical resistance, and weather resistance. Some models are designed not to react to moisture such as snow, rain, or fog, allowing both indoor and outdoor installation review.
Oil and Organic Solvent Detection
- LK16-T2-2000HD: Oil and organic solvent detection flexible sensor
- LK18-T3-3002: Multi-leak alarm module sensor for oil and organic solvent detection
- LK23-T3-3003: Distance detection flexible sensor for oil and organic solvents
Oil and organic solvent detection models are designed for liquids such as gasoline, diesel, toluene, ammonia, NMP, petroleum-based products, and other organic solvent groups. Where leak location information is required, the distance detection configuration can be considered.
Multi-Leak and Magnetic Resonance Type
- LK18-T3-3001 / LK18-T3-3002: Multi-leak detection sensors with section communication and real-time temperature detection
- LK19-T5-1000: Magnetic resonance induction type leak detection flexible sensor
- TK19-T7-1001: Magnetic resonance induction type surface sensor for liquid leak detection
Multi-leak detection models are suitable for long sensor routes, efficient installation, and section-based location identification. Magnetic resonance induction type models support applications that require durability and chemical resistance through a non-contact conductor structure.
Application Areas
Flexible Sensor can be applied in the following environments:
- Data centers and server rooms
- Electrical rooms, MDF rooms, and UPS rooms
- Semiconductor and display cleanrooms
- Chemical plants and petrochemical facilities
- Power plants and wastewater treatment facilities
- Laboratories, hospitals, and schools
- Museums, public facilities, and hospitality facilities
- Pipe routes, equipment bases, and long-distance leak monitoring sections
Why It Matters
For liquid leakage, early detection is more effective than post-incident response. A small leak can escalate into equipment shutdown, asset damage, quality issues, or safety risk. Installing a suitable leak detection system helps reduce operational risk before the issue becomes visible during routine inspection.
FLEXLEAK is more than a basic water leak detector. Depending on the site requirement, it can be configured for water, chemical solution, oil, and organic solvent leak detection. With its thin film structure, fast detection response, location detection options, reusable design options, and industrial certification support, it is suitable for building leak monitoring systems across a wide range of industrial facilities.
