LWSC10: Rope water sensor for detecting the specific location of water leaks 

over a large area, with field-extension capability 

Locate ropeWater sensor is ideal for detecting water leaks in hard to see areas, such as under raised floors and false ceilings. Locate ropeWater sensor provides the precise location of the water leak so you can respond promptly to protect your enterprise resources from water damage. It identifies the number of feet along the rope the first leak has been detected.

Combined with any of AKCP's environmental monitoring appliances, Locate ropeWater sensor provides advance notice of any water leaks or flooding. The specific location of water along the rope 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. The sensor also retains its error condition until it is read via an SNMP get. Therefore if the sensor encounters a critical condition at anytime it will report that condition before it returns to a normal state.

With Locate ropeWater sensor you can protect your essential equipment from potentially harmful water damage. Designed and manufactured by AKCP it forms an integral part of your solution for data center monitoring.

Lay this rope water sensor out around the perimeter of your room, or underneath aisles in your data center to give early warning of potential water leaks and avoid costly damage.

Locate ropeWater sensor comes fully assembled and includes:
• Yellow water-sensing cable
• Orange non-sensing cable (from the rope to the sensing module)
• Main sensing module

IP66 rated waterproof connectors join the two sections of rope together.

The sensing cable can be pre-ordered from a 10 foot minimum to any custom length (in multiples of 10 feet) of up to 160 feet.
The non-sensing cable comes in a standard 20 foot run length.

Locate ropeWater sensor comes complete with a 5 foot CAT-5 cable that connects the main sensing module to AKCP environment monitoring appliance RJ-45 sensor port. Users can replace this cable with their own CAT-5/6 cable as long as 100 feet in length.
