DPX Floor Water Sensors
Raritan has two types of DPX floor water sensors that work in
conjunction with Raritan's
DPX contact closure sensors -- DPX-CC2-TR.
Floor-mounted water sensor (DPX-WSF)
Cable water sensor (DPX-WSC series)
Note that only the DPX-CC2-TR support these water sensors. Other
Raritan contact closure sensor packages do not support them.
Note: If you order a Raritan DPX water sensor with the part number
containing the suffix -KIT, you get the DPX-CC2-TR, which supports it.
Floor-mounted Water Sensor
The floor-mounted water sensor (DPX-WSF) has a flat bottom so it can
stand on the ground. The water detector's dimension is 63.5 mm x 13.25
mm x 13.2 mm (W x L x D).
Use one of the following methods to affix this detector to the ground:
Screw the detector to the ground with your own screws. To avoid
breaking the detector's enclosure, do not over tighten the screws.
Put something weighing around 100 to 250 grams (0.22 to 0.55
pounds) into the empty bag shipped with this water sensor. Then use
cable ties to wrap the bag right above the detector. Make sure the
detector is not tilted so that its bottom evenly contacts the ground.
