Water Leak Sensor (WLS-16 / WLS-16-R3)
Introduction
WLS-16 / WLS-16-R3 is a Water Leak Sensor. It is capable of sending wireless signals to the Control Panel
upon water detection. The Water Sensor can be mounted on the wall using the extension probe to detect
water leakage or flood condition.
The Water Leak Sensor includes the following models:
WLS-16: Water Sensor cover is secured by a fixing screw.
WLS-16-R3: Water Sensor cover is secured by two latches at top and bottom

Features
Water Detection
The Water Sensor will be activated when water is
detected by the probe and the Water Sensor will transmit
an alarm signal to the Control Panel, the LED will flash 6
times to indicate.
The Water Sensor will check if water is present every 2
minutes, if water persists after 2 minutes, the Water
Sensor will send an alarm signal again to the Control
Panel. If water still remains, the Water Sensor will not
send anymore alarm signal to the Control Panel unless
water is subsided.
If water is subsided, the Water Sensor will transmit a restore signal and the LED will flash 6 times.
Battery and Low Battery Detection
Water Sensor uses 1 CR123A 3V Lithium battery as its power source. Water Sensor can also
detect low battery status. When low battery voltage is detected, the low battery signal will be sent
to the Control Panel along with regular signal transmission for the Control Panel to display the
status accordingly.
Supervision
The Water Sensor conducts Self-test periodically by transmitting a supervisory signal once every
15~18 minutes.
Getting Started
1.
Remove the battery insulator to power on the Water Sensor.
2.
Put your Control Panel into learning mode (Please refer to your Control Panel manual for details).
3.
Press the Learn/Test button once to transmit a learn code to the Control Panel, the LED will flash
3 times to indicate.
