Abstract:
A leak detector assembly for use with a backflow prevention device includes a housing defining a passageway for receiving a fluid. A flap assembly couples to the housing for generating a low flow error signal indicating minimal fluid passing through the passageway and a fully actuated error signal indicating significant fluid passing through the passageway. The flap assembly includes a flap mounted in the passageway such that significant flow of the fluid moves the flap to generate the fully actuated error signal. The flap assembly also includes a sensing element on the flap to determine a presence of the fluid without movement of the flap to generate the low flow error signal based on a low flow of the fluid.

Claim (Index 20):
A backflow prevention assembly as recited in  claim 19 , wherein:\n the first sensor does not require movement to generate the leak signal; the first alarm is a low flow error signal for tracking by maintenance personnel; and the leak detector assembly includes: a housing defining a passageway for receiving a fluid; and a flap assembly coupled to the housing, the flap assembly including a flap mounted in the passageway such that when flow of the fluid moves the flap, a second sensor is activated by flap movement to generate a second alarm, which is a high flow error signal generated by the printed circuit board indicating immediate attention is required by the maintenance personnel.
