A tap timer system, method and apparatus capable of detecting burst-off accident of the tap timer and notifying user immediately comprise a power supply module, a solenoid valve (or a motor), a conduit, a wireless module, a timer control module, an acceleration sensor module, a wireless gateway (also known as the base station or access point) and cloud server. The acceleration sensor module is used to detect if the tap timer accidentally falls off the faucet. If such an accident is detected, the timer control module sends an alarm message to the wireless gateway and the cloud server, and then the cloud server notifies the user immediately through various means such as push notification, email, automated phone call and short message. )RAWIN GS Water inlet acceleration Solenoid valve 1019 108 104 Power supply module 102 Water outlet Figure 1 Acceleration sensor 106 detects movement of water timer No Timer control module 105 sends alarm message to gateway 108 or cloud server 109 Figure 2
