About Invetex Corporation Water Sensing and Temperature Range Monitoring Solutions
Invetex Corporation, headquartered in Huntsville, Ala., has designed a unique product line that detects
water leaks and temperature changes above drop ceilings and at floor level. The Halotile and Aquapede
products, in conjunction with the Invetex monitoring system, are the most comprehensive fully functional
water leak detection system on the market today.
Halotile.
The Halotile is the only product on the market that adequately provides complete water detection coverage
in the suspended ceiling area of computer rooms. Made from a unique durable closed cell foam and fabric
that offers excellent water and temperature change detection, it detects water leaks and temperature
extremes in offices and server room environments. Each 2'x2' Halotile contains 36 water sensors for
enhanced water detection. Each tile also contains a temperature sensor to detect temperature extremes.
IMS Monitoring System. The IMS Monitoring System provides visual and audio alarms as well as
independent contact closures to interface to existing alarm systems, auto dialers, and computers for remote
locations. Advanced notification and tracking applications are also available with the IMS 2000
RS232/USB/Ethernet/Wireless interface.
Aquapede.
The Aquapede is a modular floor water sensor that snaps together to form large geometric shapes that
provide areas of water detection on the floor or other flat surfaces. Each Aquapede link is constructed using
durable plastic fitted with two floating metal blades that run parallel to one another under a durable plastic
cover. The floating feature allows the blades to adjust to uneven floors and still maintain their full sensing
capabilities. The Aquapede has a unique advantage over traditional cable sensors because of its flexible
coverage and elimination of memory re-coil, which often occurs with the cable sensors currently on the
market. Cable sensors are also susceptible to cleaning agents commonly used in commercial buildings.
