Flood Detector

Recommended Posts

Panel only been installed 2 yrs I'm told. client has big system with the remote lcd keypads etc only available on the powermaster. Don't think its viable to tell them to spend money ripping panel out just for a flood detector addition as spent £3k putting it al in!!!!

Can you send me a link to the Powermac One you are referring me to ? Can't locate!

Thanks

That float detector will need a certain amount of water before it sits up and triggers which could be 10 -20 cm deep

 

you need something thats detects water by resistance

Hi Nova, thanks for your advice. I've looked into this but these require power to which I don't have in this location. (see orig posting) Float moving up shaft to trigger event I think will be acceptable for this situation.

Interested to see what a powermax one receiver is ?

In the meantime I am thinking I can use the aux input on the door contact module and hard wire a flood sensor to that... 

 

Soz, re read your post, your hardwiring back to a wireless contact, cant see why the float switch wouldn't work then as long as it gets enough water to tip it over and float.
