Title:
LIQUID DETECTION CABLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/054894
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Disclosed is a liquid detection cable (400) that is capable of quickly detecting the presence of liquid and resetting, so that the liquid detection cable can be reused after removal from the presence of a liquid. The liquid detection cable uses a reactive layer (414) that has not been doped with a conductive material, rather, a conductive layer (412) is used adjacent the reactive layer, which allows the reactive layer to react quickly and reset after removal from the presence of the liquid. A braided binder is also provided between sensor wires and the conductive layer to provide a layer of insulation, so that the liquid detection cable does not provide false alarms when an external force is applied to the cable.
