ropeWater sensor
The AKCP ropeWater is a rope type water sensor designed for efficient water detection monitoring.The ropeWater sensor can be connected to any one of the sensorProbe or security-Probe's RJ-45 Intelligent Sensor ports enabling the unit to detect the presence or non-presence of water. This water sensor is a switch type that will be on or off and will detect the presence of water if any portion of the rope becomes wet.
This is ideal when monitoring for water leaks under raised floor, or false ceiling areas for example.
This sensor comes fully assembled and includes the rope portion that is the water sensing cable, the non-sensing area cable (from the rope to the sensing module) and the main sensing module. The sensing rope cable can be pre-ordered from a 10 foot minimum to any custom run length of up to 165 feet or 50 meters . The non-sensing cable comes in a standard 20 foot run length. See the detailed diagram of the sensor assemply on page number 2 showing the cable.
The sensing module is then connected to any of the RJ-45 Intelligent sensor ports on the AKCP base units using standard CAT5/6 LAN cable.The presence, or non-presence of water can be used to trigger alerts like e-mail, SMS, phone calls and SNMP traps.
The sensor has its own SNMP OID so that it can be monitored over the network using any Network Management System.Each ropeWater sensor comes complete with a 5 foot sensor cable that connects the main sens-ing module to either the sensorProbe or the securityProbes RJ-45 sensor ports, or you can use your own CAT5/6 LAN cable. This cable can be extened up to 100 feet or 30 meters.
Features:
Power source: powered by the sensorProbe, or securityProbe. No additional power needed. Both units autodetecs the presence of the ropeWater sensor.Full autosenseSensor module LED will activate when water is detected by the sensor.Sensor module will report a critical state if the cable breaks, is cut, or unplugged.
