Didactum DI14007 Analog Sensor for Connecting Water Detection Cables
The connector for water leak detection cables is used to detect water leaks by measuring the resistance drop in a connected water detection chain.
This sensor requires a water detection chain, which must be ordered separately and is available in various lengths.
This plug-and-play sensor easily connects to any analog port on Didactum monitoring devices.
The maximum number of sensors can be increased with the sensor expansion unit.
Applications: This sensor is essential for preventing water damage in critical environments.
Uses:
• Water leak detection: The sensor detects water by measuring the resistance drop in the connected water detection chain.
• Flexible installation: The cable can even be laid on a metal floor! Use on a grid floor is not possible, as short circuits may occur.
