Description

The Renke RS-SJ-N01-2 Industrial Water Leak Sensor employs a specialized AC excitation detection principle. This method continuously alternates the polarity on the sensing electrodes, effectively preventing galvanic corrosion and oxide buildup that plagues traditional DC-based water detection probes. This ensures long-term, stable sensitivity to conductive liquids like tap water and purified water.

Designed for harsh industrial environments, the sensor outputs both a digital Modbus-RTU signal over an isolated RS485 bus and a physical relay contact. This dual-output architecture allows for seamless integration into modern SCADA systems via Modbus while providing a fail-safe, hard-wired alarm signal. The unit’s wide operating voltage and temperature range make it suitable for installation in control cabinets, underfloor spaces, and near machinery in manufacturing plants, data centers, and commercial facilities.

Key Features

  • Industrial-grade AC detection technology for reliable, long-term leak sensing.
  • Dual isolated outputs: RS485 for network integration and relay for direct alarm circuits.
  • High compatibility with PLCs, DCS, HMIs, and industrial configuration software.
  • Extended sensing capability with optional 30-meter leak detection rope or electrode.
  • Durable construction rated for operation in damp, non-condensing environments.
  • Low power consumption: 1.2W max (relay active) and 0.4W (RS485 only).
  • Simple installation with included mounting screws and cable grippers.
  • Optimized performance-to-cost ratio for large-scale industrial monitoring deployments.

Applications

  • Data center underfloor water leak detection and early warning systems.
  • Monitoring of pipe racks, pump seals, and valve glands in industrial plants for preventative maintenance.
  • Integration into Building Management Systems (BMS) for commercial property leak detection.
  • Protection of electrical cabinets and control rooms in manufacturing facilities.
  • Laboratory and cleanroom environment monitoring for water intrusion.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the RS-SJ-N01-2 sensor?

The sensor operates on a wide-range DC input of 10 to 30 volts. This makes it compatible with standard industrial 12V and 24V DC power supplies commonly found in control panels and automation systems, providing flexibility in system design.

How do the RS485 and relay outputs function?

The sensor provides two independent outputs. The RS485 interface communicates using the standard Modbus-RTU protocol, allowing direct connection to PLCs, SCADA, and data acquisition systems. The relay is a dry contact (normally open) that closes upon water detection, suitable for triggering audible alarms, indicator lights, or other simple control circuits.

What liquids can this sensor detect, and what is the maximum sensing distance?

It is designed to detect conductive liquids such as tap water and purified water. The sensor supports the connection of external leak sensing electrodes or specialized detection ropes, extending the monitored area up to a maximum distance of 30 meters from the control unit.

What is the benefit of the AC detection technology?

AC detection applies an alternating current to the sensing electrodes instead of a constant DC voltage. This prevents electrolysis and the subsequent oxidation or plating that occurs with DC methods, which can insulate the electrodes and cause the sensor to become less sensitive or fail entirely over time.
