Sensor installation
The sensor reacts to water contact at the
SHT 216
two metal contacts.
The assembly height of the sensor defi-

sound an alarm.
For quick warning in case of water
ingress, you mount the sensor close to the floor, so both sensor contacts
touch the ground.
For installing the sensor use the provided assembly material.
Startup
The SHT 216 water detector just has to be plugged into the socket (230 V
AC / 50-60 Hz). Connect the power plug of the washing machine or dish
washer to the earthed socket of the SHT 216. The locking of the power
plug helps to avoid unintended removal of the device plug. The LED (Func-
tion) lights up green and signals that the device is ready for use.
Alarm
As soon as the sensor has contact with water, an acoustic and an optic
alarm signal sounds. The LED lights up red. The device connected is deac-
tivated. The alarm remains active until Aquastop SHT 216 is disconnected
from the power line and the water doesn't contact the sensor any more.
Function Test
Function test of the device: touch both sensor contacts with a waterlogged
cloth or an electric conductive metal and the alarm is set off immediately.
