About PermAlert®
Water, Dielectric Fluid and Hydrocarbon Leak Detection System
PermAlert, a division of Perma-Pipe, offers advanced liquid leak detection systems utilizing Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) technology. Their solutions detect a wide range of liquids—including water, hydrocarbons, and chemicals—with pinpoint accuracy. Applications span data centers, healthcare facilities, and industrial sites, providing real-time alerts and scalable protection.
PermAlert® Panel Types
PermAlert® Panels come in different models, each with a different use case.
PAL-TS
The PAL-TS series is the latest touchscreen LDS control that combines the PALCOM software capability with the PermAlert® TDR leak detection technology. The intuitive user interfaces quickly identify leak location in the real-time layout.
PAL-AT
PAL-AT® is a versatile leak detection controller with advanced features that can detect leaks of conductive and non-conductive liquid. The superior sensing technology can support wide range of applications for water, corrosive liquids, hydrocarbons and dielectric fluids. It can be communicated through BMS or BACnet.
FLUIDWATCH
FluidWatch® is a remote leak detection system that has been engineered to monitor small areas for water leaks. Typical applications include unmanned equipment rooms, small raised floor areas and small tanks.
LiquidWatch®
LiquidWatch® is a point leak detection system designed to detect liquids using discrete probes. The system is highly scalable to cover long distances.
PermAlert® Sensing Cables
AGT-GOLD Cable Sensor
The AGT-Gold is a wicking sensing cable designed for fast reaction time when come in contact with liquid. The AGT-Gold is capable of detecting water, and corrosive chemicals. Typical applications are clean rooms, subfloors, aboveground single-wall pipes and equipment applications. AGT-Gold should be installed in temperature and humidity controlled environments. This cable requires more drying time than AGW-Gold.
AGW-GOLD Cable Sensor
The AGW-Gold sensing cable is a highly versatile sensing cable that can detect water, fuel and highly corrosive chemicals. Typical applications includes secondary contained pipes, overhead chilled water pipe in data centers, around subfloors of clean room facilities, and high temperature steam pipe systems. The cable has passed UL 910 for Plenum Rating.
TFH-GOLD Cable Sensor
The TFH-Gold is a wicking sensing cable designed specifically for hydrocarbon detection only. The sensing cable can be direct buried in slotted PVC pipe or screen pipe application. Typical applications in refineries and oil fields.
ATP Cable Sensor
The ATP is a highly durable sensing cable designed specifically for insulated pipe and accurately detect water leak. The low profile design of the cable allows for cable to securely attached to the carrier pipe during foam insulation process and provide ease of field joint. The ATP cable will only work with the PAL-AT® system.
