AQUALEAK DETECTION LTD The Water Meters The WG2 uses 2 turbine water meters with pulse readers preconnected. One of the water meters needs to go at the boundary (usually adjacent to the authority meter) and the second one goes inside the building (where the pipework first enters) just after the main stop cock.
Connecting the Water Meters 15CB to 200CB The water meters are connected to the WG2 using a braided screened cable containing a pair of copper conductors. For distances of up to 100m please use a minimum of 1mm² conductor and distances up to 500m please use a 2.5mm²...

VL15 to VL50 If the latching valve option has been ordered, they need to be connected to the WG2 panel using a pair of copper conductors at least 1mm² in size. Aqualeak do not usually supply the cable to make this connection.

AQUALEAK DETECTION LTD Connecting power Connecting the battery to the WG2 panel. The WG2 panel requires a 230VAC supply from a 2A fused spur 12V BATTERY NB: The battery is packed separately in the same L E N box as the WG2 panel. When unpacking the WG2 panel please be careful to also unpack and save the battery somewhere safe.
Settings Menu) Water on: Resets the WG2 to normal guard mode after an alarm has been triggered and switches the water back on if valve has been fitted. It is also used to toggle between High and Low Guard modes, Daily mode, 7 Day mode and Weekend mode.

Press to store NOTE: All WG2 panels leave the factory with a default setting of 1 pulse. This means that only 10 litres of water will pass through the water meters before an alarm is given. The amount of water allowed through the meters before an alarm must be increased by setting the Hi Guard figure to more than 1 (see page 10).
Page 11
NOTE: When the unit is first powered live, the default setting is 1 pulse. If the building is occupied and water is being drawn, the WG2 will go into alarm. It is not possible to set the Hi Guard figure to a higher one if water is being run off when in the Guard Menu section.
