Using the Water Detector
The Water Detector works as a stand-alone unit which can be placed where leaks may occur and
has an audible alert when liquid is detected. It may also be used with a Wireless Receiver (sold
separately) which can be placed in a living area, ensuring that you hear the alert.
Placement Guidelines
Water will naturally ow towards the low point of the area that is beings monitored. For the best
results, place Water Detector in an area where water is most likely to collect.
You may place the Water Detector upright in the desired location (Figure A), or mount the base with
the wired sensor placed on ground level (Figure B).
NOTE: The sensor is water-resistant and is designed to detect the presence of liquid/leaks. However,
to extend it’s life, place the Water Detector in an area where it will not remain submerged in liquid.
