Abstract

A fluid detection device features a collection container having an inlet port for coupling to a fluid line of the fluid source and an outlet port for coupling to a corresponding fluid line of the pump; and a circuit board containing a water detection sensor configured to respond to the presence of fluid in the collection container and provide a water detection sensor signal for activating or deactivating the pump for pumping the fluid from the collection container. The fluid detection device may take the form of an inline field effect fluid detection device that includes the collection container having at least one inlet port, at least one outlet port, a mesh filter and the circuit board containing the at least one water detection sensor to measure the presence of the fluid, e.g. water, and the circuit technology (e.g. field effect sensing) to activate the pump. At least two wires would exit the device that will connect to the power source and the pump.
