Skylink FLOOD SENSOR FS-433 - Manual

1. INTRODUCTION
Flood Sensor
Model FS-433
The Flood Sensor is designed to alert you when there is water present
& potential flooding. Place this sensor along the baseme nt wall, near the
water heater, washing machine etc. When the probe of the sensor is
covered with water, the sensor will send a signal to one of the Skylink’s
receivers (Security Control Panel SC-001, Emergency Dialer AD-433S,
Audio Alarm AA-433, Silent Alarm SW-433) and these receivers will
perform their tasks. You must program the sensor to these receivers
before they can recognize each other.
In this package, you should find a Flood Sensor

screws.
