Installation Instructions
BW-WS Water Sensor
Water
Sensor
The water sensor is designed to warn you of a potential flood. If you are installing
it in the sump pit, it must be installed between the basement floor and the primary
float switch. If there is a failure with either the main pump or the plumbing system,
the water level will rise past the primary float switch and activate the water sensor.
When the water sensor is activated, it will send a signal to the connected module
and you will receive a notification on the registered mobile device.
Note: This water sensor is only designed to give you a warning of a potential
problem; it will not activate the primary pump.
Installing the Water Sensor
The water sensor should be mounted near the top of the pit or where it is appropriate for your
installation (see diagram). Attach the water sensor very securely with the included hose clamp.
Be sure the water sensor is positioned vertically with the mounting bracket at the top. Plug the water
sensor into the bottom of the controller. Do not tilt the water sensor. Do not position the water sensor
on the side of the discharge pipe facing the drain tile or any incoming rush of water.
Testing the Water Sensor
Li up the float on the water sensor with your ngers. As long it is up, the high water alarm warning
light and the audible alarm should be on. When the float is down, the warning light and audible alarm
will turn o.
Maintenance
Each time the high water alarm is activated it must be cleaned and retested to ensure it is working
properly.
