Cable-based locating Water Leak Detection (WLD) systems with TraceTek, RLE SeaHawk and Aquilar — protect data centres, server rooms, UPS rooms, basements, MV/LV substations and raised-floor environments from costly water damage. Designed and installed by certified engineers across Kolkata, West Bengal and pan-India.
A WLD system uses a network of sensing cables, spot probes and sump-level sensors connected to a locating controller. The sensing cable contains pairs of conductors separated by a permeable insulator — when water bridges the conductors, the controller measures the change in resistance and calculates the precise distance along the cable to the leak. Alarms are pushed to BMS / FACP, mobile apps and email/SMS, and the leak position is shown on facility floor-plan graphics. Below is the typical WLD topology Febino Digital deploys for data centres and critical facilities across Kolkata and India.
Febino Digital delivers complete water leak detection solutions for data centres, server rooms, UPS rooms, MV/LV substations, basements, museum archives, hospital MRI rooms and pharma facilities across Kolkata. Our designs follow Uptime Institute Tier-III/IV best practice and integrate seamlessly with BMS, FACP and DCIM platforms.

A Water Leak Detection (WLD) system uses sensing cables, spot probes or distance-read controllers to detect the presence of water at floor level — typically under raised floors in data centres, near CRAC units, around UPS batteries and in basements. When water bridges the conductive elements of the sensing cable, the controller raises an alarm. Locating systems (TraceTek, RLE SeaHawk, Aquilar AquiTron) report the exact distance along the cable where the leak occurred, allowing facility teams to act before damage spreads.
WLD systems are essential in any space where a water leak would cause significant downtime, equipment damage or safety risk: data centres (under-floor, around CRAC / CRAH, condensate pans), server rooms, UPS battery rooms, telecom MSCs, MV/LV substations, MRI rooms, museum archives, electrical panel rooms, basements with cable trays and roof-leak monitoring under skylights. Insurance underwriters and Tier-III/IV data centre standards (Uptime Institute) increasingly require WLD as a baseline.
Cable-based (linear) systems use a continuous sensing cable that detects water anywhere along its length — locating systems additionally report the precise distance. Spot detectors are small fixed-point sensors placed at known low points (drip trays, condensate pans). Probe sensors detect liquid level in sumps, pits and tanks. Most data centres deploy a hybrid: locating cable around perimeter and CRAC units, spot detectors at known drip points, and probes in sumps. Febino Digital designs hybrid WLD systems matched to your facility risk map.
WLD system cost in Kolkata depends on protected area, sensing cable length, locating accuracy required (zone vs distance-read), number of spot probes and BMS / FACP integration. Entry-level zone-based systems for a small server room with 30–50 m of cable start from ₹80,000. Mid-size data halls with locating controllers and 200–500 m of TraceTek cable run ₹3–10 lakh. Tier-III/IV data centres scale further. Febino Digital provides BOQ-based quotes after a free site survey.
