Design And Construction Of An Over-Heating Indicator For Water Pipe

ABSTRACT

The hot water pipe from the water geyser of your bathroom may burst if it gets overheated and is left unattended. This overheating indicator circuit monitors the temperature of the water pipe. If the temperature of the pipe goes above a certain limit, it flashes an LED. The circuit uses a small sensor with an inbuilt thermostat. It is actually an automatically resettable thermal switch that operates whenever its temperature exceeds the set limit. It is available in two versions, viz, normally open (N/O) and normally closed (N/C).
