WD-1

Product description

The WD-1 water detector can be used in two ways. First, it can simply be used to monitor the floor or an area for the presence of water… like a leak detector. The other way to use the WD-1 is as a water verification monitor. Used this way, the water detector is placed where run-off will collect (or where water is delivered to the growing medium). Each output (solenoid valve or pump) on the Aqua-X can be ‘assigned’ to a specific WD-1. Every time the solenoid valve or pump assigned to the WD-1 is activated by the Aqua-X, the WD-1 must detect water within an adjustable time. If no water is detected (pump or solenoid valve failure), the Aqua-X sends the user an ‘irrigation failure’ alert. Up to 25 WD-1 detectors can be connected to a single Aqua-X.

*Use two water detectors (WD-1/2) to enable the new auto-fill function on the Aqua-X Pro. One water detector is placed at the bottom of the nutrient reservoir and another at the top of the reservoir. When the liquid level drops below the lower sensor, the Aqua-X Pro activates a solenoid valve or pump and the reservoir fills up to the upper sensor.
