Detector Testing

When the detector contacts are exposed to liquid, the resistance between
them drops. To activate the alarm, it is sufficient that at least one contact
pair of LeaksProtect is closed.
1. To check the flood detector, close the contact pair with a wet finger for 3
seconds (the delay will prevent any false actuation). If water is detected,
the detector LED will light up red for 1 second.
2. Wipe the contacts with a dry napkin – when the detector detects that the
flood has ceased, it will also switch on the red LED for 1 second.
If you drown the detector with soapy water, it may continue signal flooding
after getting dry. The issue is about the soapy film closing the contacts. To
eliminate the problem, wipe the detector contacts with a napkin moistened
with pure water and then dry them up.
