VT591 / Water leak rope sensor

Function and purpose

For installation at the bottom of IT racks and cabinets; at the bottom of raised floors; at the bottom of trays and under equipment that can potentially leak. When water is in contact with the metal cores, the sensor indicates the emergence of moisture.
Attention! Metal cores are detectors of water, mount strictly downwards as close as its possible to a floor.
