Black Box EMERW-020-R3 Rope Water Sensor with 20-ft. (6.0-m)
Overview
The Black Box EMERW-020-R3 is a 20-foot (6.0-meter) rope-style water sensor designed to detect the presence of liquid in critical infrastructure environments. It integrates with compatible monitoring systems to provide early warning of leaks or spills, preventing costly damage and downtime. This sensor is ideal for deployment under raised floors, around critical equipment, or in areas prone to water ingress.
Compatibility
This sensor is designed for use with Black Box water detection and environmental monitoring systems. It is compatible with specific Black Box alarm panels and network monitoring devices that accept analog or digital sensor inputs. Consult your Black Box system documentation for exact model compatibility, as it is not a standalone device.
Installation Notes
The EMERW-020-R3 features a flexible rope design for easy placement. The sensing cable should be laid out in a manner that maximizes coverage of the area requiring monitoring. Ensure the sensor cable is not subjected to excessive tension or sharp bends that could damage the internal conductors. The sensor requires a compatible Black Box host device for power and signal interpretation; it does not have its own power source.
