Overflow detector

Product catalog summary
Overview
The EFS 8781 is an ultrasonic overflow detector designed for reliable water presence detection using patented ultrasound measurement technology. It is robust, reliable, and autonomous, featuring a composite IP68 housing and integrated battery for up to three years of operation.

Application Areas
  • Storm water overflow
  • Sewage networks
  • Industrial effluents
  • Surface water
  • Presence of liquid

Measurement Principle
The device measures variations in acoustic impedance between air and fluid, ensuring precise detection. It records internal information such as overflow start and end times, duration, battery voltage, temperature, and current time.

Communication and Outputs
  • RS485 Modbus communication for data reading
  • Discrete output for real-time overflow signal transmission

Main Features
  • Temporary or permanent installation
  • Energy autonomy with internal recording
  • Easy installation with two anchoring points
  • Stainless steel mounting plate

Technical Specifications
  • Dimensions: 46 mm x 72 mm x 125 mm
  • Weight: 0.5 kg
  • Cable length: 10 meters
  • Operating temperature: -20 °C to +60 °C
  • Immersion: IP68 @ 1 bar / 1 hour
  • Internal logger: 65535 events
  • Certification: ATEX zone 1, IECEx, CE
  • Battery: Lithium Thyonile 3.6 V, 3 years life

Installation and Wiring
The detector can be easily fixed on a vertical wall or platform bottom using two anchoring points. It includes a molded cable with RS485 communication and on/off outputs for overflow and battery status.

Overflow detector-1

Water presence detection Ultrasound measurement PRESENTATION This product is used to detect the presence of water. It ensure the self-monitoring of your storm water overflow for a the quantification of overflow times. APPLICATION AREAS Storm water overflow Sewage network Industrial effluents Surface water Presence of liquid • ULTRASONIC MEASUREMENT: measurement patented by EFS using ultrasound to obtain reliable detection: no false detection even if the sensor is fouled • ROBUST: the housing is made of IP68 composite material and has hydrodynamic shapes to limit soiling. • RELIABLE: all sensitive elements are integrated into the device housing and are therefore fully protected from external agressions. • AUTONOMOUS: integrated solution with its battery. Internal recording able to store 1 event every 10 minutes during 1 year.

HOW TO USE The overflow detector can be installed temporarily as part of a study or permanently. It can be installed: • Alone thanks to its energy autonomy and its recording • Connected to a data logger to control a sampler INSTALLATION Easy fixing by 2 anchoring points: • either on a vertical wall or • on the bottom of a platform. The detector is mounted on a stainless steel plate which allows it to be securely fixed to a support.
