Abstract
A multi-layer seal formed with a first layer for visual detection of leak by incorporating coloring agent that is water soluble, a second layer for electrical detection of a leak by a sensor, the second layer incorporating disbursable agent which disburses into the water upon contacting water and causing a change in chemical, and/or electrical property of the water, and a third layer made of water swelling material which swells upon contact with water. The three layers may be arranged in an orientation wherein a leak would first reach the first layer, then reach the second layer, and lastly reach the swelling layer. The sealing layer arrangement may be correlated to the fluid flowing direction. The layers may form independent parts placed side-by-side or may be integrated into a single seal loop.
