LEAKGUARD Basic monitoring device for local and district heating

The LEAKGUARD Basic device series from BRUGG Pipes is the compact and cost-effective monitoring solution for district heating and cooling pipes with a monitoring wire pair in the insulation.

The devices are simple to install and easy to operate. Alarm signals (lamps, sirens, etc.) can be controlled via integrated output contacts. LEAKGUARD Basic monitors the flow and return of a district heating pipe on 2 channels in parallel. For this purpose, it permanently measures the insulation and loop resistance of a pair of wires in the insulation of your pipe system according to EN 14419.

In the event of leaks in the pipe, interruption of the measuring loop or the pipe connections, it immediately sounds the alarm and thus helps to prevent major damage and losses. The insulation and loop resistance alarms can be acknowledged via device keys. The configuration, input of limit values for the loop resistance and the insulation resistance as well as the readout of the measured values can be carried out on site with a laptop using a web browser via the Ethernet interface. No additional operator software is necessary.

We look forward to your request.
