Abstract

One example discloses a liquid exposure sensing device, including: a first sensor configured to be coupled to a reference material; wherein the first sensor configured to generate a first signal in response to either a liquid phase and/or vapor phase of a substance passing through the reference material; a second sensor configured to be coupled to an exposed material; wherein the second sensor configured to generate a second signal in response to the liquid phase and/or vapor phase of the substance passing through the exposed material; and a controller coupled to the first and second sensors and configured to generate a liquid detection signal in response to a time delay between the first signal and the second signal that exceeds a threshold time delay.
