Why TraceTek prevails among competing solutions

Over time, various competitors have entered and exited the market with copycat variants. However, the modular and exceptionally robust design of the TraceTek system has consistently been favored and specified by leading global players requiring advanced and early leak detection in their facilities.

The power of automated faulty detection in TraceTek

One of TraceTek’s standout features, highly regarded in professional settings, is its automatic internal measurement sequence. This sequence identifies and reports faults such as breaks, damage, earthing faults, and connection issues on its own connections and cables. Such incidents are monitored and reported independently from the main leak detection alarms as such. In larger facilities, dealing with these types of errors becomes routine. This level of nuance and specificity in alarm messages is achievable because the sensor cable employs a sophisticated distributed symmetrical two-circuit system based on semiconducting polymeric material, as opposed to the simpler, traditional single-circuit systems with inherent limitations (most conventional point and strip/tape measurements on the market rely directly on Ohm’s law applied to simple one-wire circuits). The increased focus on reducing false alarms and the associated costs, especially when they turn out to be imprecise or erroneous, has become more pronounced in recent times. Additionally, the consequences of ignoring or not receiving water alarms have grown more severe in modern larger scale datacenters.

The significance of system stability over time

Prioritizing system stability over time in the real operating environment of equipment and sensors is crucial. The need to reduce or eliminate false alarms becomes even more critical as the system ages. Differential measurements in symmetrical two-circuit systems automatically self-calibrate due to their precisely balanced construction, offering significant advantages over traditional single-circuit systems regarding fault detection and deviations throughout the installation’s life. Many systems are often either disconnected or  indicate constant active alarms because of stability issues, grounding problems, or other complications that make operation costly or hinder the identification and resolution of activated and possible crusial faults.

AVA Systems integrated solution for enhanced monitoring

AVA SYSTEM also provides an integrated solution enabling IP addressing of monitoring devices. This allows for remote access and communication through existing Ethernet or even the internet. Furthermore, the system has capabilities that allows integration with wireless solutions, facilitating secure transmission of alarm messages via the established public GSM network, a technology commonly used in various industries.
