GE Security 5501-M Moisture Detection Processor
Processor for moisture sensor, closed loop, terminal connection, accommodates up to 4 sensors, includes two long-life lithium batteries, mahogany brown
The 5500 Series moisture detector is designed to respond to the presence of water and other nonflammable conductive liquids. The sensor units can be surface-mounted or floor-mounted beneath carpet for detection of increased moisture levels in basements and bathrooms, and leakage in air conditioning and sprinkler systems. The moisture detectors work with the 5501 Moisture Processor. Simply push the processora's test switch to simulate the presence of water and verify proper operation. The processor accommodates up to four detectors and comes with two internal lithium batteries for long-life.
The 5501 processor comes with internal lithium batteries that have an anticipated life of 10 to 15 years. A test switch is provided that simulates the presence of water and will, when pressed for a period of 15 seconds, activate the processor output to the normal closed state. The processor offers flexability in mounting with no need for an external power source and minimal wiring required. Sensors include the Model 5515 surface mount unit and Model 5505 under-carpet sensor. Any combination of up to four (4) sensors may be used with the Model 5501 moisture processor.
