Abstract
A system for monitoring fluid flow in a water supply for detection of leakage. The system includes sensing means for detecting fluid flow and generating a proportional pulse, timing and memory means for recording an occurrence of the pulses, means for determining if a substantially continuous series of pulses occurred over a time period, and means for indicating the results of the determination.
