AQUALEX Sense

What if dispensing water happened completely on its own? With AQUALEX Sense, it becomes reality. This patented technology automatically recognizes your bottle or glass, knows whether you prefer chilled still or sparkling water, and dispenses exactly the right amount.

  • Completely hands-free

  • Automatic water selection

  • Intelligent dosing

A new standard in drinking water technology

No buttons. Just water.

You fill your water bottle, start chatting with a colleague, and before you know it, your bottle is overflowing. Why should you have to keep an eye on your water when smart technology can do it for you?

That is why we developed AQUALEX Sense. Our patented technology in the AQUALEX drip tray recognizes your bottle or glass, automatically selects still or sparkling water, and dispenses exactly the right amount. As soon as your bottle or glass is full, the water stops by itself.

The result? An effortless water experience where innovation, ease of use, and design come together.

Small tag. Smart technology.

At the bottom of every Nova Sense bottle and Nova Sense glass is a small, smart tag. It communicates automatically with the reader under the drip tray and signals which type of water and what quantity is needed.

  • Discreet: the tag is subtly integrated at the bottom of the bottle or glass.
  • Dishwasher-safe: resistant to the heat of the dishwasher.
  • Durable in use: designed to last.
  • Interactive: you can easily scan the tag with your smartphone and discover the story behind AQUALEX. A fun extra experience for guests in hospitality and visitors at the office.

How does AQUALEX Sense work?

Frequently asked questions about AQUALEX Sense

AQUALEX Sense is a patented, smart control technology that lets you dispense chilled still or sparkling water completely hands-free. Using a tag, the system automatically recognises your bottle or glass, selects the correct water type, still or sparkling, and dispenses precisely the desired amount.

A smart tag on the bottom of your Nova Sense bottle or glass communicates with a reader beneath the drip tray. The AQUALEX Intelligence Hub then controls the water type and the amount dispensed.

AQUALEX Sense is ideal for settings such as offices and restaurants, where employees and guests use the same bottles and glasses every day. Sense works with Nova Sense bottles and glasses, which are included as standard in your all-in service. They are equipped with a smart tag that the system recognises, automatically activating the correct water type and amount.

AQUALEX Sense is currently available as a control option for the Fino. The Fino Sense is paired with a round AQUALEX drip tray.

No. Simply place your compatible Nova Sense bottle or glass on the drip tray, and Sense starts filling it automatically. Once the set amount, for example 25 cl or 75 cl, has been reached, the water stops flowing. Remove your bottle or glass before it has finished filling? The water stops immediately.

Sustainability

Why use more water than necessary?

AQUALEX Sense automatically dispenses the right amount. And as soon as you remove your bottle, the water stops immediately. This way you avoid unnecessary water consumption while filling.

Combined with reusable bottles and filtered tap water, every refill becomes a natural choice for less packaging waste.
