  • Publication number: 20050275546
    Abstract: FlowSentry II is an apparatus designed to save water in a conventional operating toilet. When the level of water in a toilet tank drops 1/8 of a inch (absent a normal flush) FlowSentry II alerts the user of the toilet, by way of an audible alarm, that the toilet is leaking water. FlowSentry II only determines that the level of water in the tank has dropped or risen (in an overflow situation), it cannot diagnose the cause of the drop or rise in water level (i.e. leaking flapper, faulty overflow tube, etc.). During the normal flush process the Flow Sentry II monitors the time it takes the tank to refill with water and determines if the supply valve has closed properly. If the water level fails to return to normal level in 90 seconds or tank continues to fill exceeding normal level, a continues audible alarm will sound until corrective action is taken or the 9V battery is exhausted.
