Installation
The main unit is installed on a wall, and the probe unit can be installed on a wall or
a floor.
When the metal probes on the probe unit come in to contact with water, a small
amount of electrical charge flows between the probes, which the main unit
recognizes as a water leak.

Installation precautions
R The
sensor is not designed to be used in situations that require high reliability.
We do not recommend use of the sensor in these situations.
R Panasonic takes no responsibility for any injury or damage caused by the use of
this product.
R When installing, make sure the battery is inserted properly and the main unit
cover is completely closed.
R When installing on a wooden surface, use the included wall mounting adaptors.
Secure the wall mounting adaptors to the wall using screws (not double-sided
tape).
R Mount the sensor on the stable location where the sensor can be adequately
supported when mounting.
R Do not mount the sensor on a soft material. It may fall down, break or cause
injury.
R Do not mount the sensor on the following places: gypsum board, ALC
(autoclaved lightweight cellular concrete), concrete block, plywood less than
25.4 mm (1 inch) thick, etc.
R The sensor may not be able to properly detect a water leak if the water contains
contaminants such as oil, or if the water is frozen (i.e., ice or snow).
For assistance, please visit www.panasonic.com/support
11
Setup
R Install the probe unit so that the metal probes are horizontal. A water leak can
on
ly be detected if water touches both of the metal probes; if water touches only
one of the probes, a water leak will not be detected.

Installation location
Ins
tall the water leak sensor in a basement, kitchen, utility room, or anywhere you
want to detect a water leak. Common installation examples include near a washing
machine, hot water heater, or a location where a water leak has occurred in the
past.
Note:
R Install the probe unit so that its metal probes are about 1 mm (1/32 inches)
above the floor. If the probes touch the floor, the sensor may make false
detections. If the probes are too far from the floor, water leaks can only be
detected after the leaked water has become deep enough to touch the probes.
R Install the main unit 1 m (3 feet 3 inches) or higher above the floor. The main
unit is not waterproof; if it becomes wet, the sensor may become damaged and
water leaks will not be detected properly.

Instalación
La unidad principal se instala en la pared, y la unidad de sonda puede instalarse en la pared
o sobre el piso.
Cuando las sondas metálicas de la unidad de sonda entran en contacto con agua, fluye una
pequeña descarga eléctrica entre las sondas, lo cual es reconocido por la unidad principal
como una pérdida de agua.

Precauciones de instalación
R El sensor no está diseñado para usarse en situaciones que requieran alta confiabilidad.
No recomendamos el uso del sensor en estas situaciones.
R Panasonic no asume ninguna responsabilidad por lesiones o daños provocados por el
uso de este producto.
R Cuando realice la instalación, asegúrese de que la batería esté colocada
adecuadamente y que la tapa de la unidad principal est
é cerrada por completo.
R Al instalar en una superficie de madera, use los adaptadores de instalación en pared que
se incluyen. Use tornillos para colocar los adaptadores para montaje en la pared (no use
cinta de doble cara).
R Monte el sensor en una ubicación estable donde se pueda sostener correctamente.
R No coloque el sensor sobre un material blando. Podría caerse, romperse o provocar
lesiones.
R No monte el sensor en las siguientes ubicaciones: tablas de yeso, hormigón celular,
bloques de hormigón, contrachapados con grosor inferior a 25.4 mm (1 pulgada), etc.
R El sensor no puede detectar adecuadamente una fuga de agua si el agua contiene
contaminantes tales como aceite o si el agua estuviera congelada (es decir, hielo o
nieve).

Configuración
R Instale la unidad de sonda de modo que las sondas de metal queden horizontales. Una
pérdida de agua solo se puede detectar si el agua toca ambas sondas de metal; si el
agua toca solamente una de las sondas, no se detectará la pérdida de agua.
Instalación correcta Instalación incorrecta
Las sondas de metal son paralelas al piso
Las sondas de metal no son paralelas al
piso
Ubicación de la instalación
Instale el sensor de pérdida de agua en sótanos, cocinas, lavaderos o en el lugar donde
quiera detectar pérdidas de agua. Los ejemplos comunes de instalación incluyen lavarropas,
calentadores de agua o lugares donde se produjeron pérdidas de agua anteriormente.
Nota:
R Instale la unidad de sonda de modo que las sondas de metal queden aproximadamente
a 1 mm (1/32 pulgadas) sobr
e el nivel del piso. Si la sonda toca el piso, es posible que el
sensor realice detecciones falsas. Si las sondas están muy alejadas del piso, las
pérdidas de agua solo pueden detectarse una vez que la pérdida sea lo suficientemente
profunda y toque las sondas.
R Instale la unidad principal 1 m (3 pies 3 pulgadas) o más sobre el nivel del piso. La
unidad principal no es a prueba de agua; si se humedece es posible que el sensor se
dañe y que las pérdidas de agua no se detecten adecuadamente.

Instalación de la unidad de sonda sobre un piso
Cuando instale la unidad de sonda sobre un piso, use la cinta de doble cara para pegar la
unidad de sonda directamente sobre el piso.
Nota:
R Si la unidad de sonda se inserta en el adaptador de instalación en pared y se pega en un
piso, las sondas estarán muy lejos del piso y, por lo tanto, solo se detectarán pérdidas de
agua una vez que el agua sea lo sufi
cientemente profunda como para tocar las sondas.
Instalación correcta Instalación incorrecta
Agua poco profunda toca las sondas
Solo el agua profunda puede tocar las
sondas
