Installation of Leak Detection System Cable
1.Attach the leak detection cable to the LT460 module.
2.Activate module and test detection cable. (Touch detection cable with a clean moist cloth or paper towel.) Dry detection cable to remove the alarm condition. (A hair dryer can be used to speed up the drying.)
Note: Do not try to saturate the detection cable for testing! It only requires a small amount of water to alarm. The detection cable will have to dry for the alarm condition to clear.
DETECTION CABLE PLACEMENT PRECAUTIONS
•Do not use detection cable that is damaged or
•Detection cable should not be dragged through contaminants (dirty or greasy areas). Floor must be clean for the detection cable to function properly and for the
•Careful consideration should be taken to place detection cable out of the direct discharge airflow path of environmental equipment. This type of equipment can discharge moisture into the airflow. Place cable six feet from discharge to avoid nuisance alarms during humidification.
•Tools or heavy objects can do permanent damage when dropped, rolled, or set on the detection cable. Avoid foot traffic on the detection cable as well.
•Do not use any type of adhesive tapes to secure the detection cable.
•Do not allow soldering or welding near the detection cable without providing protection from heat or contaminants. (Also avoid installing the detection cable in or near these type of areas.)
•Mild dishwashing liquid can be used to clean the detection cable of many contaminants.
3.Once the cable passes the test, lay it in the pattern desired.
