Product description
Professional water detector with 2 potential-free switching contacts and 5 sensor connection terminals. Universal detector for mounting in a control box with 35 mm DIN rail. The mounting height of the connected sensor(s) determines the switch-on point for the water alarm.
Applications
Relay with 2x changeover contact
You can simultaneously connect a GSM detector or BMS and external 230 V equipment (up to 5 A) to this water detection unit. This is because the internal relay contains two separate potential-free changeover contacts. On the connection terminals there is room for looping through the power supply voltage, on behalf of an external alarm generator, an electric valve (valve) or other device to be switched on in case of an alarm.
Monitoring technical rooms
In a technical room, place several sensors on the floor so that a leak is detected as quickly as possible. As soon as at least one of the connected sensors comes into contact with water, the Sensor LED turns on and both relay contacts switch. The water detection unit is intended for placement in a central location. The signal line between sensor(s) and water detector may be up to 60 m long. For this purpose, use a cable of 2 x 0.5 mm².
Water detector with memory function
Once the water level is lower than the contact pins of the sensor(s), the alarm goes off and the relay drops. This water detector also has a memory function, which you activate using a wire bridge: in this case, the relay remains in alarm condition until someone presses the Reset button.
Applications
Detection of water leakage in all kinds of utility and manufacturing buildings. The sensors can also be placed outdoors, for example, to monitor water drainage on a flat roof or in a drainage channel. Other applications: archive cellar, technical room, factory (securing water-consuming machines), fill level monitoring (water storage, tank, basin).
Check operation with test function
This water detector unit has a self-test function, to quickly and easily check proper operation. The green LED shows whether the power supply is present. In case of alarm, the red LED lights up and the relay is activated.
