BREEAM Compliant Water Leak
Detection Systems
BREEAM WAT 04 Water shut-off system – Type BPIR
Application of the BREEAM Water Shut-Off System
The BREEAM WAT 04 Water Shut-Off System (BPIR) consists of an infra-red controller and one or more motorised ball shut-off valves. The system effectively turns off water flow during non-occupied periods in areas such as changing rooms, WC, or any wet area. As a result, this significantly reduces the chance of water leaks and wastage due to faulty taps or toilets.
Designed to meet the latest BREEAM requirements:
EXISTING (in-use) buildings:
- WAT08 (leak prevention)
NEW Construction buildings:
- WAT01 (water consumption)
- WAT04 (water efficient equipment)
How does the BREEAM Water Shut-Off System works?
The BREEAM WAT 04 Water Shut-Off System consists of infra-red sensors that boast a wide coverage area of 6m in diameter. When a person enters the room, the sensors activate and send a signal to the BPIR, prompting it to open the ball valve, allowing water to flow.
You have the flexibility to adjust the time settings of the infrared sensor, allowing it to activate the ball valve and cut off the water supply when the room has been vacant for a predetermined period.
Flexibility of the BREEAM Water Shut-Off System
- Valves of different sizes ranging from 15mm to 32mm offer a variety of options.
- To ensure comprehensive coverage, it is possible to control up to three valves.
- The time delay on infra-red sensors is adjustable, allowing for a minimum duration of 5 seconds and a maximum duration of 15 minutes.
- You can use any number of infra-red sensors to ensure full coverage of your area.
Standard Features:
- 230VAC PIR no need for external power supplies or equipment
- Wall or ceiling PIR sensors are available
- Non occupancy valve turnoff periods settable between 5 second and 15 minutes
- You can connect any number of PIR sensors
- Detection range: 6m diameter and a height of 2.5m
- PIR can also be used to turn of the lighting
- Efficient Low power shutoff valves
- Shutoff valves only run warm; some other solenoid valves can reach 95°C
- Shutoff valves can be fitted to the pipe in any direction or orientation.
- Zero flow or water pressure loss, suitable for power showers
