Hardwired Sensors: Ten foot white cord with single sensor.
PRO sensors are easily secured to floor using mounting
holes. Sensors provide the same feedback to monitoring
station as the wireless WaterCopPRO sensors. Use
hardwired sensors for convenience or if conditions prevent
wireless communication. Sensors sold individually and can
be wired with up to 200' of 22/24 AWG 2-conductor cord
(not included).
General Safety Information
Warning
Do not apply electrical power to the unit unless the unit is
fully assembled. Failure to do so could result in personal
injury and/or damage to the unit.
Warning
Disconnect power source before working on or servicing
the unit. Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
Caution
It is strongly recommended that eye
protection be worn while servicing the
system. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury.
How the System Works
Flood sensors constantly monitor their selected areas for
accumulating moisture. When a leak is detected, a sensor
will send a radio frequency signal to the WaterCopPRO
power (common 115 VAC, grounded outlet) and will not
operate during a power outage unless receiving auxiliary
power from a backup device such as an uninterruptible
power supply unit (UPS). Additionally, the use of a certified
surge protection device is highly recommended.
Selection of WaterCopPRO Installation Sites
The WaterCopPRO valve should be installed in the main
water line just downstream from the main shut-off valve in
your home. The front control panel of the WaterCopPRO
should be easily visible in order to see the valve position
(open/closed). It should also be easily accessible for
resetting the valve after it has closed due to the detection
of a leak and the leak has been repaired. The installed
WaterCopPRO is completely supported by the piping in your
plumbing system. The WaterCopPRO should NOT be used
as a step or to support heavy loads. The WaterCopPRO
requires household electrical power, and the provided
power cord must be plugged into a properly grounded
power source (115 VAC).
actuator instructing it to shut
off the water supply to the
home. The WaterCopPRO
valve will remain closed until
it is manually reset. The flood
sensors are battery powered
devices enabling them to
be located anywhere a leak
is likely to occur, or where
water might cause damage.
The WaterCopPRO actuator
requires household electrical
ensure that the installation is in complete compliance.
(See Installation section for details.)
Placement of Flood Sensors
Each WaterCopPRO can support up to 45 wireless flood
sensors. Additional sensors may be added at any time.
A sensor consists of a transmitter and a sensor probe
(a small disc at the end of the wire, with two short gold
prongs protruding from one side). Flood sensors should be
placed in locations where leaks are most likely to occur.
Suggested Locations
• Washing Machines
• Dishwashers
• Kitchen Sinks
• Bathroom Sinks
• Pipes that are prone to freezing (freeze sensors are
also available)
The transmitter in the flood sensors and the receiver in
the WaterCopPRO communicate by radio frequency. The
smaller the distance between them, the stronger the signal
will be. Transmission distance is somewhat dependent
upon the building layout and type of construction. The
transmitter (attached to the sensor) must be kept dry.
It is NOT splash proof. Sensors should never be placed
outdoors. The sensor probe detects the water from a leak
and is completely waterproof. Sensor probes should be
placed on the floor or in areas where water would tend to
accumulate rapidly in common leak or overflow situations.
Make sure that any water from a leak will drain toward
the sensor probe, not away from it. Avoid high traffic areas
where the cord or sensor could be stepped on or kicked
and where children or pets may disturb it. The sensor
probe should be placed FLAT on the floor so water can be
detected as soon as it begins to accumulate. The sensor
probe may be secured to the floor with screws. To avoid
damage to transmitters and to provide for the strongest
signal possible, the transmitter portion of the flood sensor
should be mounted in a convenient location (on the wall,
in a cabinet, closet, etc.) 2' to 3' above the floor (see
illustration). (See Installation section for details on
sensor installation.)

Do not use an extension cord.
The shut-off valve must be
installed;
• In the main water line;
• In place of or just downstream
from the main water shut-off
valve;
• Where it is accessible;
• Where the case is protected
from use as a step or from other
excessive loads.
Local electrical and plumbing
codes should be consulted to
• Toilets
• Icemakers/Refrigerators
• Automatic Humidifiers
• Water Heaters
