The SHT 8800 is a high-quality active water sensor with two robust V4A stainless steel contacts, encapsulated in a durable plastic housing with Wepuran®. As soon as water or another conductive liquid touches the contacts, the output voltage rises to approximately 80–90% of the operating voltage. This allows for easy and reliable control of high-impedance analog inputs of home automation or building management systems.
The sensor cables (3 x 0.14 mm²) are flexible and can be easily extended (max. 20 meters).
Important: The connected analog inputs must be high-impedance to avoid loading the sensor.
LIYY cables are temporarily waterproof, flame-retardant, low-adhesion, self-extinguishing, and resistant to oils, greases, coolants, and lubricants.
The SHT 8800 is not suitable for direct connection to Schabus water detectors . Please note this during integration.
Active sensors such as the SHT 8800 have an electronic internal component and always require auxiliary power – either through an operating voltage or a bias current to query a potential-free contact.
The SHT 8800 reacts to water contact with an increase in voltage.
Other active sensor types (e.g. SHT 8815 , SHT 8824 ) react differently (change in resistance or current).
Each sensor type is specifically tailored to the requirements of the respective control system.
Active sensors are more sensitive than passive sensors and can also detect water with low conductivity.
Chemically pure, repeatedly distilled water cannot be reliably detected even by active sensors – at least some free ions must be present.
Suitable for regularly dry environments with rare water events.
In permanently humid environments, electrolysis can cause contact corrosion because the sensor operates with direct current.
The high-impedance query of the sensor signals is a prerequisite for long and wear-free operation.
The current limit in the sensor protects against excessive wear.
