At Cannon Water Technology, we offer different types of power failure alarm devices and monitoring equipment which can be connected to the system and remotely managed through the software on your phone. While we have our own product line of power failure alarms, we also source them from reputed brands such as Gizmo, which offers our clients a huge variety under one roof.
How Alarm and Power Failure or Outage Monitoring Equipment Works?
Alarm monitoring equipment provides notifications of potential malfunctions, which can lead to breakdowns. Many modern water treatment systems have built-in alarms, which alert operators when a malfunction is about to occur. However, remote monitoring equipment provides data logging functionality and is available with different sensors.
This allows you to prevent unscheduled shutdowns, perform predictive maintenance, optimize the best efficiency for systems, and so on. When these portable mechanical devices receive any input from external sources, they sound a loud and audible alarm and show a bright LED strobe.
These two are major indicators of some issues in the system. The operator shuts off this audible alarm with an illuminated button present on the front panel. You can reset the alarm depending on the requirement. The LED strobe will continuously blink until the issue is dealt with. The equipment has a lithium-ion battery or can be plugged into an external source for a continuous power supply. The circuit monitors and controls the battery life and beeps if detected low.
Types of Alarm Devices We Offer
Here are some types of alarms we offer.
- Level monitoring alarms: In industries such as chemicals, water treatment, oil & gas, liquids and gases are transferred from one location to another via pipelines. These are stored in tanks or chambers. There is limit defined for the amount of storage as well as flow rate based on the manufacturer’s guidelines as well as application requirements. If the levels exceed or fall beyond the defined limits, the level monitoring alarm buzzes and the connected visual indicator lights up. The alarm is audible enough to be heard despite other noises in the industrial unit. We offer these alarms in various types, wherein one is a basic, easy-to-install alarm which are placed in storage drums for level monitoring. Made of polypropylene, it is attached to the liquid suction tube. The other type of level monitoring alarm has a microprocessor controller inside and built-in relay.
- Power failure alarms: This is useful in case of power outages, loose connections, and voltage fluctuations. This alarm monitors all the power outlets and flashes an LED light as well as produces a beep sound in case of any interruption. This also comes with a snooze feature and has a long-lasting Li-ion battery. The buzzer is loud enough to cut through all the noises around. Some models of our power failure alarms are also enabled for level monitoring, leak detection, overflow detection, and more.

Applications of Power Failure Alarms in Industrial and Commercial Units
Most of our power failure alarm devices are designed to test parameters required across industries, such as level monitoring, spills and overflow monitoring, dry runs and underflows, and so on. These are widely used in water treatment, chemicals, mining, agriculture, and many other industries. Here are some cases of applications of our power failure alarms in manufacturing and commercial units across industries.
- Our power failure alarms find applications in chemical manufacturing, food & beverages, wastewater treatment, and related industries where level of liquid, flow rate, and so on are crucial for normal functioning. This is because these devices can check chemical dosing levels, flow rates, spills, and so on, aside from power monitoring.
- They are used in conveyor systems and storage bins to regulate material flow and avoid blockages. They are also used for liquid control for appropriate drug formulations in pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
- They find wide usage in irrigation systems, water level monitoring in water treatment, agriculture, and so on as well as dewatering systems in trenches and construction sites.
- In case of power outage or frequent voltage fluctuation, these devices raise alarms to force shut down systems as well as backup resources to prevent loss data and minimize downtime.
- The power monitoring feature finds use in data centers, hospitals, data and voice network service providers, commercial establishments, retail stores, and so on.
- They find use in HVAC systems, refrigeration units, especially in the food industry as power outage may perish food contents eventually.
- Stable power supply is required in most sensitive applications. Power failure alarms, in such cases, alert the personnel to switch to backup power.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Power Failure Alarm Device
While we offer services and assistance to select the right power failure alarm device based on your application, here are some pointers which may be helpful in making an informed decision.
- The most important factor is to understand your application requirements well. After browsing through our product features, their operating temperature ranges, level monitoring ranges, and more, weigh all of this against your requirements and operating environment.
- In case of power outage issues, check what you exactly need to monitor, such as volage fluctuations, frequency variations, and so on. The same applies for level monitoring, such as checking for appropriate ranges, resistance to abrasive and corrosive fluids, and more.
- Check if the alarm device is compatible with your existing system and its components as well as power backup systems. If there are some variations, look for custom options to suit specific requirements.
- Look for remote monitoring features so that you can control it via your smartphone regardless of your location. This ensures safety as any situation can be immediately controlled.
- Ensure the device has a strong battery backup. Prefer the ones with robust, long-lasting, rechargeable Li-ion batteries.
- Look for the maintenance schedule of these devices, and if you can manage it on your own at times. We offer maintenance services as well.
- The device must be scalable and fit into futuristic systems or new versions of existing systems.
