Product description
Complete set for shutting off the water supply after leakage. The 230 volt valve is controlled directly by a water detector with sensor, which detects leakage. The electric valve -available in three versions- is plugged directly into the water detector via the corresponding control cable. You place the water detector (sensor) on the floor, under the pipe or a water consuming device.
Applications
Automatic water supply blocking
The 4-piece pipe leak valve is suitable for a houseboat, in a technical room or near a machine connected to the water supply. Deployable in residential houses and for professional use. The sensor is equipped with 10 m connecting cable.
No water at 230 volt loss
When the detection pins of the sensor get wet, it triggers the alarm. This disconnects the supply voltage to the valve, stopping the water supply. This also happens when the mains voltage is lost. Thanks to this function, the pipe leakage valve can also protect a water-consuming production machine.
Testing the pipe valve
When you connect the pipe leakage valve to the mains, it opens only after 20 to 30 seconds. The time delay occurs only when switching on and serves to eliminate short interfering signals. Test operation by placing the sensor pins in a cup of water or on a wet cloth. This causes the detector to interrupt the 230 Volt supply voltage of the valve within a few seconds. There is no voltage on the sensor pins, so they are safe to touch. Regularly check the proper operation of the pipe leakage valve to prevent jamming due to dirt.
