Typical Scenarios

WES3 Water Interface

Scenario One

I20 1 has a WES Water Cable Sensor fitted to the input of the device. This is 

configured to monitor the pipework in a plant room while refurbishment work 
takes place. This is located a couple of hundred metres away from the main 

shut-off valve. Nothing is attached to the output.

I20 2 is deployed next to the shut-off valve. Nothing is attached to the input 
but the output is connected to the shut-off valve. In this scenario the water 
is detected by I20 2 which triggers the input and raises a “WTR” alert on the 

WES3 network.

This triggers the output on all Water I20’s (in this instance I20 2 only. This then 
shuts off the valve via I20 2. A “WTR” alert is triggered on the WES3 Connect 

and (where used) the REACT cloud and mobile application.

Scenario Two

I20 1 has a WES Water Cable Sensor fitted to the input of the 
device. The shut-off valve in this case is co-located within the 
plant room so the output from I20 1 is connected directly to this, 
i.e. both the input and output are connected.

I20 2 is deployed next to an adjacent shut-off valve. Nothing is 
attached to the input,  the output is connected to the shut-off 
valve. In this scenario the water is detected by I20 1 which triggers 
the input and raises a “WTR” alert on the WES3 network.

This triggers the output on all Water I20’s (in this instance I20 2 

and also the valve connected to I20 1.  Both valves are therefore 
shut off. A “WTR” alarm is triggered on the WES3 Connect and 
(where used) the REACT cloud and mobile application.

Scenario Three

Two separate zones - I20 1 has a WES Water Cable Sensor fitted to the input of the device.  The shut-off valve in this case is co-located within 
the plant room so the output from I20 1 is connected to directly to this, i.e. both input and output are connected.  I20 2 is deployed next to an 

adjacent shut-off valve.  Nothing is attached to the input but the output is connected to the shut-off valve. 

In this scenario the water is detected by 120 1 which triggers the input and raises a “WTR” alert on the WES3 network.  This triggers the output 

on all Water I20’s (in this instance I20 2 and also its own valve at 120 1).  Both valves are therefore shut off.  A “WTR” alarm is triggered at the 
WES3 Connect and (where used) the REACT cloud and mobile application.
