EN
Leak Detection & Automatic Water Shut-off System Installation and Operating Manual
INSTALLATION
1.
Close the main water supply valve
2.
Open faucet nearest toilet or
dishwasher to relieve water pressure.
3.
Shut off the manual cold-water
valve that supplies water to the
toilet/dishwasher.
4.
Thread the spinning nut on the
FloodStop valve directly onto the
male 3/8" threads on the supply
valve. The arrow on the side of the
FloodStop valve will be pointing
to the toilet or dishwasher. Thread
the 1/4" female connection on
the supply hose to the 1/4" male
threads on the FloodStop valve.
If a compression connection on a
copper line, then attach the compression nut/ferrule onto the male
1/4" threads on the FloodStop valve. NOTE: Ensure Leak Sensor is
lying flat on the floor.

5.
Mount the FloodStop Control Panel in
an easily accessible location within
30 inches of the FloodStop Valve.
You may mount the panel using the
screws and anchors, or the Hook &
Loop Mounting Pad provided. When
using the Hook & Loop Mounting
Pad, make sure the adhesive is put
on a clean, dry surface.
6.
With the contacts of the wire
harness connector facing you, plug
the 6-pin connector end of the Wire
Harness into the bottom of the
Control Panel.
7.
Take the short wire coming from the
Control Panel and connect to the
FloodStop Valve wires (make sure
the arrow on the side of the plugs
line up with each other). NOTE: The
Leak Sensor comes with a Paper
Sleeve. If the Leak Sensor is going
to make contact with the toilet or
dishwasher, or any other piece of
metal, make sure you leave the
Paper Sleeve on. If the Leak Sensor makes contact with metal, it
will signal the FloodStop Valve to shut off. The Paper Sleeve acts as
a barrier between the Leak Sensor and the metal. When the Paper
Sleeve becomes wet, it will signal the FloodStop Valve to shut off.
8.
Connect the plug on the end of the
long flat wire coming from Control
Panel to either set of prongs on the
Leak Sensor, pushing until plug
snaps in place. Then place Leak
Sensor on the floor at the base of
the refrigerator. NOTE: Additional
Leak Sensors can be connected
in series for added protection. For
additional Leak Sensors, purchase
FloodStop Water Leak Sensor (Part #2007 – FSAX01) available
where you purchased your FloodStop System. CAUTION: Do not
place Leak Sensor or cord in a walkway, or other location that may
cause someone to trip and fall. NOTE: The Leak Sensor comes with
a Paper Sleeve. This prevents the Leak Sensor from coming into
contact with conductive materials (metal, tile, concrete, etc.) If the
Leak Sensor were to contact one of these materials, it could trigger
an inadvertent alarm. The sensor will still be able to detect water with
the paper sleeve on.
