3 • INSTALLATION / ASSEMBLY / CONNECTION
Please observe the following before installing the device:
• The height at which the detector is mounted on the wall will determine the water level
at which the detector is triggered.
• Two installation methods are possible:
1. The detector is directly mounted at the desired mounting height.
2. The detector is mounted separately from the housing base containing the
sensor surfaces.
• If you choose option 2, detach the housing base from the sensor surface by pressing
the latch and carefully remove (fig. 1).
• Make sure that the housing base containing the sensor surfaces is installed flat on the
floor, for example by screwing it down.
• To mount the detector, secure 2 screws vertically one above the other (58 mm apart)
into the wall and leave approx. 2–3 mm protruding.
• Open the battery compartment on the side of the housing and carefully pull the battery
clip (fig. 2.1).
• Insert the 9 V battery the right way round and close the battery compartment (fig. 2.2).
To test, bridge the two sensor surfaces on the housing base with a moistened finger.
The detector will emit a loud alarm signal and will stop when you let go of the sensor surfaces.
Now hang the detector on the wall using the screws and pull it slightly downwards.
If possible, check that the alarm is working by putting a little water on the floor.
• If you wish to use the floating contact, be sure to observe the instructions for the device
that you want to connect to the detector.
• Use J-Y(St)Y2x2x0.6 or AWG 23 cables.
• Test the equipment every month.
• Replace the batteries after 1½ years or when the alarm is no longer loud and clear
when tested. The detector does not give any warning signal when the battery is depleted.
