Didactum Monitoring System 100 – Protection against water leakage and water ingress
Didactum Monitoring System 100
Water is one of the biggest enemies of modern IT and building technology. Even the smallest leaks in air conditioning systems, cooling water pipes, or sprinkler systems can have devastating consequences for data centers, server rooms, and technical installations. With the Didactum Monitoring System 100, companies receive an IP-based monitoring system specially designed to prevent water damage and protect against water leakage and intrusion. It operates completely autonomously, alerts in real time, and seamlessly integrates into existing security and monitoring solutions.
The importance of reliable water leakage monitoring must not be underestimated: An unnoticed drop under a raised floor in a server room can have just as fatal consequences as a creeping leak in a production hall. The Didactum System 100 addresses all these scenarios by supporting a wide range of sensors – from point water sensors in the server room to water leakage cables up to 50 meters long that can secure large areas. This ensures that IT or building managers receive immediate and clear status messages about the current situation at all times.
What makes the Didactum Monitoring System 100 special is its versatility. In addition to leakage monitoring, it offers comprehensive functions for physical room and infrastructure monitoring: temperature and humidity sensors, vibration detectors, or smoke detectors can be integrated as well as access control and power sensors. This makes this IP-based monitoring system equally suitable for data centers, technical rooms, production environments, and critical areas in logistics and industry.
In an emergency, every second counts. If a sensor detects moisture, the Didactum System 100 immediately triggers a reliable water damage alarm. In addition to visual and acoustic warning signals, which can be used directly in the affected area, the solution also informs via e-mail, SMS, or SNMP trap. This enables responsible IT administrators or facility managers to respond immediately before a costly damage occurs from a leak. Forwarding to building control or security systems is also possible and ensures a comprehensive alarm chain.
Comprehensive Monitoring of Critical Infrastructures
The Didactum Monitoring System 100 offers much more than simple leakage detection. It operates around the clock and combines sensor values from different categories. Typical applications include data center leakage monitoring, securing warehouses and archives, as well as monitoring power supply systems such as UPS or backup generators. Thanks to support for numerous interfaces and protocols, the system can be integrated into any existing IT environment.
Flexible Sensor Integration
A major advantage of the Didactum System is its modularity. Users can freely decide which sensors are needed for their security requirements. Several options are available for protection against water intrusion: point leak detectors for server rooms, which respond to even small drops, or large-area water leakage cables that cover surfaces up to 50 meters long. Combined with humidity sensors for IT infrastructures, a seamless safety net against all forms of moisture damage is created.
Data Recording and Compliance
All measurement values are continuously recorded by the integrated data logger of the appliance. This function is important not only for the analysis of threshold violations but also for proof to auditing bodies or for compliance requirements. Exporting in common formats (XML or CSV) facilitates evaluation in programs like Excel, Cacti, or with network tools. This ensures the system meets important requirements of modern documentation and verification obligations.
Integrated Alarm Functions
Administrators can create individual alarm plans via the multilingual web interface. Logical links, escalation levels, and automated switching can be defined. This makes it possible that the triggering of a leakage sensor simultaneously activates a siren, sends an SMS, and reports the incident via SNMP to the network management system. This intelligent escalation logic makes monitoring for critical infrastructures especially reliable.
Scalability and Investment Security
By default, up to 36 sensors can be connected. By integrating additional CAN or Modbus expansions, the number can be flexibly increased. Thus, the Didactum Monitoring System 100 grows with the company’s requirements. From small server rooms to large production facilities, the solution offers sustainable protection against water damage and numerous other risks.
Proven Technology from Europe
The Didactum Monitoring System 100 is manufactured in the EU and offers German-speaking support. A key feature is cyber security: the system is based on a hardened Linux OS with SSL-encrypted communication. TLS/STARTTLS-encrypted e-mails are available for alerting. This combination of security, functionality, and regional support makes it a future-proof solution for any organization valuing reliable protection.

Summary
How does the Monitoring System 100 protect against water damage?
The system monitors rooms, raised floors, or facilities using leakage sensors and water leakage cables and immediately alerts via e-mail, SMS, or SNMP trap at the first drops or increased moisture.
Can large areas like production halls also be monitored?
Yes, by using water leakage cables up to 50 meters long, extensive areas can be secured. The monitoring can additionally be expanded using CAN modules.
Can the system be integrated into existing security and monitoring solutions?
Yes, the Didactum Monitoring System 100 is fully SNMP compatible and supports common monitoring and network solutions such as Zabbix, Nagios, or PRTG.
