Leak Detection Methods
Lick Elevator Inc. uses various methods to detect leaks in their elevators, including:
- Water level sensors: These sensors measure the water level in the elevator car and compare it to a set point to detect any changes.
- Temperature sensors: These sensors monitor the temperature of the elevator car and can indicate if there is a leak.
- Pressure sensors: These sensors measure the pressure inside the elevator car and can detect if there is an increase or decrease in pressure, which may indicate a leak.
Lick Elevator Inc. has identified several types of leaks that can occur in their elevators, including:
- Clogged or damaged valves: These can cause the elevator to move unevenly or stop mid-trip.
- Faulty joints and hinges: These can lead to worn-out parts that need to be replaced or repaired.
- Corrosion: This can occur due to exposure to chemicals or moisture, causing damage to the elevator's electrical and mechanical systems.
