Leak detection component for a liquid cooling system
A liquid cooling leak detection system includes a sensor cable, a leak sensor cable carrier, and multiple cable carriers. The sensor cable indicates a detected leak based on the sensor cable being in contact with a liquid. The leak sensor cable carrier is in physical communication with the sensor cable. The cable carriers are in physical communication with the sensor cable and with the leak sensor cable carrier. Each of the cable carriers includes a support structure and an absorbent material. The absorbent material is in physical communication with the support structure and with the sensor cable. The absorbent material transfers the liquid from a portion of the absorbent material to the sensor cable.
