AquaSense Leak Sensor, Wireless Water Leak Detector
FlowCheck is a wireless, battery-powered water leak detector with a 2 m probe cable and two detection channels. When water touches the electrodes, it sends an alarm over LoRaWAN EU868 to a MachineSens gateway. Alerts then appear in BuildOT One, so facility teams can act before a leak damages property or equipment.

Battery operated wireless sensor to detect water leaks.
FlowCheck is a wireless battery-operated water leak detector designed to detect water leakages and prevent potential damage to properties and assets.
This intelligent device uses a probe and rope sensor design for detecting water leaks. Upon detecting water immersion, the sensor promptly transmits alarm notifications to the designated application via wireless communication protocols such as LoRaWAN®. This enables users to remotely monitor status information and send instant notifications as alarms to remote control and monitoring systems.
FlowCheck water leak detector consumes low power, ensuring long lasting and cost effectiveness on battery replacements.
This sensor can be installed anywhere and takes up minimal floor space.
