Tane WS-1  Water Sensor

The WS-1 from TANE Alarm is an inexpensive flood / water sensor that can be used in areas where water can possibly leak and ruin the interior of building. The WS-1 is white in color and measures 2 1/2″ L × 1/2″ W × 1/2″ H. It is an open circuit and when water bridges the to probes it closes the loop. 

The WS-1 will work on any 12VDC volt alarm system and if EOL resistors are used then the minimum voltage requirement of the system must be 6VDC. This cannot be used with wireless transmitters that accept simple hardwired switches. The WS-1 comes with a 6 inch jacketed leads and draws 6 mA of current.
