Water damage is one of the biggest hidden threats to technical equipment and critical infrastructure. Leaks are rarely visible to the naked eye, technical rooms often hide problems until equipment fails, and most repairs are reactive.
But with Water-Tech’s sensor-driven platform, you detect damages early, preventing costly failures before they happen.
Water-Tech was co-developed by VDB Vochtwering and Cboost, to bring cutting-edge water damage detection technology to infrastructure.
Common infrastructure issues due to water damage
Issues caused by water damage are particularly challenging. Damages occur invisibly; they are extensive and disruptive.
Elevator pits are a clear example: rainwater, groundwater, or pipes leak in, corroding cables and controls below ground. The first sign is often an elevator breakdown, but by then, the repairs are expensive, and the lift is out of service.
These hidden issues are made worse by extreme weather; the pressure from heavy rain and floods puts extra strain on all infrastructure.
Reduce costs, optimize resources, and improve safety with predictive maintenance technology
Not only does predictive maintenance help you spot water damages early, but it also reduces operational costs, optimizes your maintenance resources, and improves the safety of your infrastructure:
- Reduces costly unplanned downtime by detecting issues before failures occur, keeping facilities operational longer and avoiding service interruptions
- Optimizes maintenance resources by enabling maintenance only when needed based on real-time data, cutting maintenance costs
- Improves safety by early detection of leaks or moisture issues, preventing hazardous failures and costly damage to your infrastructure
Ultimately, predictive maintenance allows you to make smarter decisions through AI and advances sensors.
Water-Tech - the solution for predicting and preventing water damage
Water-Tech is an AI and data science platform connected to advanced sensors that keeps your infrastructure failure-free. Water-Tech includes three very important steps towards predictive maintenance:
Monitor: Advanced wireless sensors are placed on-site and measure humidity levels, temperature, conductivity, 24/7.
Water-Tech offers a platform paired with advanced sensors for monitoring water levels, humidity, temperature, and conductivity. The platform automatically alerts you to early flooding based on preset maximum values, allowing timely measures to be taken to prevent further flooding.
Analyze: Smart software powered by AI and data science predicts the risk of water damage and leakages through constant and real-time monitoring.
The data collected from the platform is analyzed using AI, enriching this information with weather models and groundwater levels. This allows Water-Tech to predict potential leaks and flooding, minimizing the impact of water damage.
Resolve: Professionals are on standby to intervene if they receive automatic alerts from the platform warning of water damage risk.
In the event of an impending or existing flooding, Water-Tech helps you eliminate the cause of the flooding, whether it’s leaking (cable) ducts, floors, or walls. A specialized company will be called in to resolve the cause of the flooding immediately, permanently, and with a warranty.
