A float assembly of a fluid-level sensor includes a float and an arm assembly. The arm assembly has a first attachment portion connectable to a fluid-level sensor and a second attachment portion connected to the float. The arm assembly further has an articulating joint that permits relative movement between the float and the first attachment portion. A sensor attached to the float.

A flow detection device comprises a fluidic input port connected to a fluidic output port via a channel and a float located within the channel. A specific weight of the float exceeds a specific weight of a fluid injected in the flow detection device. Respective locations of the fluidic input port, of the channel and of the fluidic output port on the flow detection device cause the float to rise within the channel when a sufficient flow of the fluid is injected in the flow detection device. A sensor is provided to detect a position of the float within the channel. The flow detection device may be integrated in a cooling circuit having a cooling device for an electronic device to detect an eventual lack of a flow of a cooling fluid in the cooling circuit. A status of the flow of the cooling fluid is reported to a processor.

Devices, systems and methods for leak detection are provided herein. Also provided are devices, systems and methods for monitoring and/or measuring fluid usage. In some aspects, a system comprising a sensor, a processing system, and a platform are provided. In some aspects, the sensor may be coupled to a spinning device. The sensor can be configured to detect fluid data, which can comprise, for example, displacement data of liquid and/or movement data associated with the liquid in a container and/or flow data associated with a flow of fluid in a conduit. The processing system can be coupled with the sensor and configured to communicate the fluid data. The platform can comprise an application communicatively coupled to one or more databases storing evaluation data (e.g., known pattern data) and configured to receive the fluid data and determine if there is a leak.

A support arrangement for a fluid monitoring system is provided, configured for being secured within a vertical shaft and for facilitating positioning of a fluid monitor suspended therefrom. The support arrangement includes an attachment arrangement to be secured to a vertical access shaft of an open channel fluid transport system, a cross rail assembly including a cross rail and being configured to be mounted to the attachment arrangement for being supported thereby, and a lifting assembly mounted on the cross rail and configured for suspension therefrom of the fluid monitor along a vertically-extending suspension axis. The cross rail is configured to be rotatable about a vertical axis when at least partially received within the attachment arrangement. The lifting assembly is configured to be selectively secured to one of a plurality of lateral positions along the length of the cross rail.

Disclosed is a composite hydrological monitoring system, in which a counterweight component and a test component are respectively connected to both opposite ends of a strip and a plurality of sensors are disposed at different vertical positions. Accordingly, the scour depth can be measured by sensing the location of the counterweight component, whereas the water level and/or flow velocity can be determined by signals from the sensors. When the counterweight component moves downward with sinking of the riverbed, the strip would be pulled down and thus causes the test component to present a change in mechanical energy. Accordingly, the sinking depth can be measured by sensing the change of the mechanical energy. Additionally, since the water level variation would cause signal changes of the sensors arranged in a row along a vertical direction, the change of water level can be determined accordingly.
