System Description

The  WaterCop

®

  PRO  System  is  designed  to  detect 

leaks  in  your   plumbing  system  at  predetermined 

locations, and automatically shut off the water supply 

to help effectively reduce the chances of major water 

damage associated with a leak.

 

System Components

Brass  Valve:

  Full  Port,  brass,  125psi  cold  water, 

designed for placement on incoming water main.

WaterCop  Actuator:

  NEMA  4  (weatherproof) 

Polycarbonate enclosure for indoor/outdoor installation, 

AC/DC power converter with 20’ cord included, Liquid 

crystal display with back light for sensor/trouble status, 

ambient  temperature  35°F  to  105°F,  for  cold  water 

applications. Manual override, Local open/close water 

control.

Flood  Sensor:

  Power  using  2  AA  Alkaline  Batteries 

or optional AC/DC power converter (sold separately). 

Batteries  will  provide  back  up  power  upon  loss  of 

electricity.  Wireless  sensors  are  addressable  and 

supervised  for  conditions  such  as  water  detection, 

power lost, sensor short/open and low battery. Ten foot 

sensor  cord  allows  optimal  sensor  placement.  Flood 

sensors  can  support  one  or  two  sensor  wires.  Each 

WaterCop

®

 PRO actuator valve can support up to 45 

wireless sensors.

Range Enhancing Repeater:

 Enhances transmission 

range of wireless sensors. Plugs into any standard wall 

outlet. Receives and re-transmits sensor signals from 

outlying sensors to the WaterCop

®

 PRO actuator.

Monitoring Station-Standard:

 LCD display with back 

light  provides  instant  feedback  of  sensor  alarm  and 

trouble conditions as well as open/close status of water 

supply. Local push button water controls for instant on/

off  of  water  supply.  Audible  alarm  sounds  when  any 

sensor  detects  flooding.  Internal  mounting  bracket 

mounts to standard wall boxes for aesthetics and cord 

management.  AC/DC  power  converter  with  20’  cord 

included.

Monitoring  Station-Hardwired  (pictured  above): 

Accommodates  up  to  8  zones  for  WPSC  hardwired 

flood sensors (sold separately).
