Installation Guide
Below diagram shows the general installation guide for WxS8800, it can be installed on any flat and solid surface, the lid is contacted with the surface and fixed via 2 self-tapping screws:
With cable characteristics, leaks can be monitored along with pipe routing.
It can also be split into multi-segment detection capabilities by the WxS8800.
Principle of detection
When the AB line of the cable is short-circuited by water, an alarm is issued. And through the layout of the cable to expand the monitoring area. Cable monitoring
length ≤ 100 meters.
If it is in the construction phase of the communications room,Detection cables can be freely deployed in areas such as communication cabling, air conditioning ducts, and underfloor spaces.
A variety of installation methods of the detection cable can be utilized, and the object to be measured can be stretched and arranged at will.
You can use the LPWAN's wireless coverage, no need to add transmission guides, and deploy in any corner of the room.
For a communications room that is already in operation, LPWAN's signal penetration capability can be used to eliminate construction such as breaking walls and drilling holes in the ground. The system directly monitors the designated area for leaks.
