ZWCFS100 Wireless Leak & Temperature Sensor
This product will provide you with peace of mind and the protection you expect. Leaking pipes, corroded
water heaters, fixtures in bathrooms and laundry rooms, or refrigerator drip pans can all cause water damage.
The ZWCFS100 is a Z-Wave® enabled device that will send a water alert on your Z-Wave® network.
Devices performing other functions and from other manufacturers can also be part of your
Z-Wave® network and can act as repeaters to extend your network range.

Functionality
The ZWCFS100 senses when water is detected and will also
provide a Z-Wave® alarm signal when the temperature drops
below a low temperature setpoint or rises above a high
temperature setpoint. The ZWCFS100 functionality is based
on wireless (RF) transmissions. Any wireless transmission can
be subject to RF interference and, although unlikely, this
interference may cause the device to not operate as intended.
The ZWCFS100 must not be used in life support and/or safety
applications.
Information provided in this manual is for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. The specifications and
this manual are subject to change without notice. It is your
responsibility to ensure that the ZWCFS100 meets your
specifications.

Using the ZWCFS100 in a Z-Wave® Network
•
The switch is used for including or excluding the ZWCFS100 in
a Z-Wave® network
•
Refer to your controller’s User Manual for specific details on
network inclusions, exclusion, and association
Inclusion in (adding to) a network:
1. Set up the inclusion mode at the controller
2. Inclusions and exclusion are always done at normal transmit
power mode.
Exclusion from (removing from) a network:
Set up the exclusion mode at the controller
Associations:
Once in a network, a controller can be used to associate the
ZWCFS100 with other devices in the Z-Wave® network, such as a
light or another remote audible alarm. Refer to your controller’s
documentation on how to associate ZWCFS100 with another
device in your network. The ZWCFS100 supports three
association groups with a maximum of 5 devices in each group.
Basic Set commands are sent at 30-minute intervals to the
associated groups while alarms are active.
•
A Basic Set Command is sent to the associated nodes, if any,
assigned to Group1 to indicate that EITHER a Water Alarm OR
Heat Alarm (under or over temperature) is active.
