Abstract

A system () for monitoring a pipe system () includes a first sensor device (). The first sensor device () includes at least one sensor, a wake-up circuit (), and a processor (). The at least one sensor is configured to sense an operating characteristic of a piping section () of the pipe system (), and includes a transducer configured such that an audio signal emanating in the piping section induces the transducer to produce a voltage signal indicative of the audio signal. The wake-up circuit () is operatively connected with the transducer, and generates a wake-up signal in response to the voltage signal being above a predetermined threshold. The processor () is operatively connected to the wake-up circuit () and to the at least one sensor, and is configured to identify an operating condition of the pipe system () with reference to the operating characteristic sensed by the at least one sensor in response to receiving the wake-up signal.
