Product description
The Water Sensor 'Home' has a voltage-free NO+NC alarm contact. Can be connected directly to a home automation system, GSM detector, water detector or other alarm system with potential-free input. Download the datasheet for installation instructions.
Applications
Build your own alarm system
This water sensor is intended for fixed wiring. This means you need to install wiring. Advantage: works more reliably than a wireless water alarm. It is possible to link the alarm contacts, so you can connect up to 8 of these water sensors (in 2 groups) to one GSM alarm detector.
Very compact, can be placed anywhere
Compact water sensor, with water detector, electronics and switching contacts in one housing. Operates on safe low voltage of 12 or 24 volts: choose the appropriate option when ordering. Note: only suitable for direct voltage (DC). Universal water alarm with de-energized make and break contact for alarm inputs. Note: the alarm contact cannot control sirens, lights or other alarm generators!
Waterproof housing
Features: high sensitivity and fast response in case of leakage. The floor sensor is encased in a hermetically sealed housing, with 2 metal detector pins at the bottom. This water sensor is resistant to permanent submersion, due to flooding.
