Waterstop is a new electronic alarm system which provides an early warning of water leaks; it fits on to the wall at ground level and can be hidden completely behind the wall panel
Single function modules can monitor over current or over voltage and, when working as 3-phase monitoring modules, can supervise phase sequence and phase loss.
The modules with extended functions allow the measurement of over and under current and voltage with delay function.
Additional features are latch function and window comparator.
The 3-phase modules cover phase sequence/loss and phase asymmetry.
Full function modules feature programmable over and under current and voltage functions.
These modules, and those with extended functions, can detect regenerated voltages resulting from phase loss which is an important security factor for networks with drives and driven machines.
The full function modules have the additional benefit of being interchangeable with other modules which provides cost savings if they are held as spares.
Where suitable, all devices feature automatic AC/DC detection and are designed for multirange power supply.
To save installation time, double chamber terminals allow the simultaneous connection of different wires.
