The first part of above tables shows the connections for a “string” 8 zones. Further “strings” continue
with the next available terminals. “Strings do not have to be of 8 zones – they can be 7, 6 etc. or even 1.
Returning Sensor To Use
The detection cable can be wetted and dried any number of times as long as it does not become
contaminated with a substance which irrevocably changes its electrical characteristics. An example may
be vending machine syrup, chemical floor treatments, paint etc. The detection cable will dry out
naturally and the effected part of the cable must be completely dry before the zone can be reset. This
may take 10 minutes to 1 hour or more depending on the environmental conditions and the length of
cable wetted but increased air circulation and warmth will speed up dying time. If a length of cable
seems to take an excessive time to dry out water may be trapped in the retaining clips and these should
be eased to expose the wet area to the air.
In the event of any damage only the affected section of cable (either all or part of a zone) need be
replaced with a new length of detection cable which can be easily jointed in.
M8 Detection Cable (Plug & Play)
Introduction
The M8 detection cable is the least sensitive of all the Floodline tape/cable detection sensors. It senses
water anywhere along its entire length typical applications include:
• In voids below raised floors.
• Run in drip trays.
• Laid around the base of plant, apparatus or tank.
• Laid in loops or wave pattern for general monitoring of larger areas.
• No minimum or maximum zone length.
