Detection Capabilities: Can detect water present using a separate water detecting cable or spot detector (P/N C5000 or C5001). Provides a WET/DRY indication in software.
Maximum reading rate: one reading every second
Housing Dimensions: 8 cm (3.1") x 4 cm (1.6") x 2 cm (0.8")
Housing Material: injection molded ABS thermoplastic
Housing Colour: light gray
Sensor type: Requires separate C5000 water detecting cable (purple) or C5001 spot detector. These attach to this device through its 10 ft cable terminated with a two-pin molex connector.
Electronics Operating temperature range: -40 º C to +60 º C (-40 º F to +140 º F)
Communications connector: 8 position modular jack, (accepts 8 position plug RJ45)
Power source: Port-powered (RTS and DTR, both asserted) or via External DC power connector
Power supply current drain: < 10 mA
External DC power connector: 2.1 mm power jack, automatic polarity correction and over-voltage protection.
External power supply voltage: 6.0 - 12.0 VDC
Communications Interface: RS232C using TX,RX,RTS,DTR and GND. One device per serial port.
Maximum communications cable length: 305 m (1000 ft.) using recommended cable type. Low capacitance shielded cable or UTP is recommended.
Firmware Version: 2.01
Communications Protocol: Sensorsoft Device Protocol (SSDP) Version 2.0 and Version 3.0. For software that supports only Version 2 of the protocol a polling method is used. For software that supports Version 3 of the protocol a real-time method is used.
Error control: 16 bit CRC (cyclic redundancy checking) for detection of communication errors between the device and host computer.
Applications: water leak detection and flooding.
