1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Liebert Liqui-tect Monitoring System is the ultimate in leak detection and retrofitting capabilities for computer rooms and other large areas. The Liqui-tect Monitoring System provides direct-read
at the control unit location, as well as the ability to communicate with the Liebert SiteScan Web
enterprise monitoring system or a building management system.
The Liqui-tect Monitoring System features an easy-to-use liquid crystal display (LCD) panel with
readout of normal and alarm conditions, as well as leak location. Display and measurement modules
are contained in a single compact package.
The Liqui-tect Monitoring System can monitor up to 10,000 ft. (3048m) of Liebert LT500Y leak detection cable. Points along the cable may be mapped by one person, making it easy to configure within
the critical space and pinpoint the location of leaks when they occur. The system determines the location of the water on the detection cable and reports the distance from the Liqui-tect panel in feet or
meters. To ensure proper protection, the system continuously monitors operation, signaling system
normal, leak detected and cable fault.
The Liqui-tect panel offers these and other features to protect your installation from leak damage:
• audible and visual alarms
• adjustable sensitivity setpoints for leaks and contamination
• continuous scrolling of data
• history logs
• connection to a building management system
• automatic detection of broken cables and contaminated cables
• password protection
• retention of configuration after a power failure
Introduction
Two interfaces permit easy access and configuration of the Liqui-tect panel:
• LCD on the front of the enclosure
• Liebert’s SiteScan Web enterprise monitoring system through a dedicated connection port
1.1 Equipment Inspection
Upon arrival of the unit, inspect all items for visible and concealed damage. Damage should be immediately reported to the carrier and a damage claim filed with a copy sent to Liebert or to your sales
representative.

1.2 Outside Enclosure Overview
Liqui-tect
Monitoring System
The enclosure for the Liqui-tect panel’s controller board comes in two sizes:
•The large enclosure is designed to accommodate the Transformer Module and future compo-
nents, in addition to the controller board.
•The small enclosure is built to hold the controller board only.
Both enclosures are 2-3/4" deep.
Both enclosures have a built-in liquid crystal display (LCD) and a key lock, as shown in the example
below. The metal enclosures accommodate secure conduit fittings and protect components against
external forces and debris.

2.0 INSTALLATION
2.1 Installation Considerations
The Liqui-tect panel must be installed indoors and may be mounted on the surface of a wall or flushmounted, depending on the user’s application and the type of wall the unit will be mounted on. The
unit’s location must meet the following criteria:
• The panel must be placed close enough to the areas to be monitored to permit proper connection of
the leak detection cable. The panel will monitor two zones; each zone can accommodate up to
5,000 ft. (1524m) of leak detection cable.
• The Liqui-tect panel should be mounted where it can be easily accessed. Personnel would access
the unit through the LCD on its front cover or through SiteScan.
• The site also must have electrical service and must permit connection of the panel’s four digital
outputs, two inputs for leak detection cables and two analog outputs for connecting to a building
management system or external alarm.
• The wall material must be capable of supporting the weight of the Liqui-tect panel: see 7.0 -
Specifications.

2.2 Surface-Mounting the Liqui-tect Panel
NOTE
Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the Liqui-tect panel on the wall will ease
installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. It is imperative to remove
the knockouts if the unit is to be flush-mounted.
After determining where to place the unit, check to ensure that you have all the hardware required to
install the panel on the surface of a wall. Obtain the needed tools and material.
Required tools
• Electric drill (if surface is too hard to drive screws without pilot holes)
• Screwdriver
• Marker to denote layout of holes
• Four screws, each #10
2.2.1 Mounting the Panel
CAUTION
!
Check building plans and other relevant documents to determine whether mounting the
Liqui-tect panel at the selected location might cause cutting or otherwise damaging electrical
or communication wiring or pipes.
1. Mark the wall for mounting holes, using the back of the unit as a template (see Figure 4).
2. Drill holes, if required, to install the four #10 screws that will secure the Liqui-tect panel to the
wall. Clean up the debris.
3. If the wall material is not strong enough to hold the screws securely, use wall anchors.
4. Install the top two screws—the screw heads must be small enough to slip through the larger,
bottom portion of the pear-shaped mounting slot in the Liqui-tect panel (see inset in illustration
at right). The screws must also be large enough to extend over the edges of the top of the
mounting slot.
5. Hang the Liqui-tect panel on the screws, letting the panel slip down until the screws are in the
smaller, upper portion of the slot.
6. Tighten the screws until they are snug.
7. Insert the remaining two screws in the bottom holes on the back of the panel and tighten.

2.3 Flush-Mounting the Liqui-tect Panel
NOTE
Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the Liqui-tect panel on the wall will ease
installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. It is imperative to remove
the knockouts if the unit is to be flush-mounted.
The rectangular access doors on the top and bottom of the Liqui-tect panel must be removed
from the outside of the panel and reinstalled on the inside of the panel. Leaving the doors as
shipped from the factory prevents them from being opened when the panel is flush mounted in
a wall.
The Liqui-tect panel may be flush mounted according to company practices—either with screws
through the sides of the panel into wall supports or with hanging hardware that attaches to the back
of the panel. After determining how and where to place the unit, check to ensure that you have all the
hardware required to install the panel in the wall. Obtain the needed tools.
Required tools
•Saw
• Electric drill
• Screwdriver
• Marker to denote layout of the hole to accommodate the Liqui-tect panel
• Trim ring and associated hardware
• Mounting hardware
Installation
2.3.1 Mounting the Panel
CAUTION
!
Check building plans and other relevant documents to determine whether mounting the
Liqui-tect panel at the selected location might cause cutting or otherwise damaging electrical
or communication wiring or pipes.
1. Mark the wall for the cutout to accommodate the panel, using the back of the unit as a template.
2. Drill a pilot hole for the saw blade, if required.
3. Use the saw to cut out the marked section of the wall (if not new construction).
4. Rest the Liqui-tect panel in the wall and mark where mounting screws will be inserted into the
wall studs or other support member.
5. Remove the panel and drill the holes for the mounting screws or wall anchors. Clean up the
debris.
6. Reverse the slide direction of the rectangular access doors on the top and bottom of the Liqui-tect
panel. Leaving the access doors as shipped from the factory prevents them from being opened
when the panel is flush mounted in a wall.
7. Attach any field-supplied mounting hardware.
8. Reinsert the assembly into the wall.
9. Insert and tighten the screws or wall anchors.
