The latest generation of AFRISO Europress pressure type leak detectors can be integrated into wireless building automation systems, just like all other AFRISO alarm units and products with an EnOcean-ready label. For this purpose, the optional TCM 320 EnOcean wireless module is plugged onto the PCB and the device is connected to an EnOcean centre, for example, to the AFRISOhome gateway. In the case of an alarm, a message is sent to the smart phone or tablet of the operator so that appropriate action can be taken immediately.
The compact leak detector in a robust wall mounting housing generates visual and audible alarms in the case of a leak; the audible alarm can be muted with an Acknowledge button. The device features a test button for performing function tests and indicating the pump running time, an integrated service indicator for annual maintenance and a switching output for integration into building control systems or connection of additional alarm equipment. The two hose connections (red, white) are used for the pneumatic connection to the interstitial space of the tank; the connection pieces can be used for 4 mm or 6 mm hoses. Europress is suitable for ambient temperatures of -5/+60 °C. For outdoor applications, the device is available in a protective housing or in a protective housing with heating (IP 55) for ambient temperatures of max. -25 °C).
The Europress leak detector is suitable for detecting leaks in double-walled steel tanks with all water-polluting liquids, in suitable plastic tanks for water-polluting liquids with a flash point of more than 55 °C und for the storage of AdBlue as per DIN 70070.
