Centralite 3315-C Detects Water Leaks
Launch Date: 2023 .
Price: $24.95
Introduction
The Centralite 3315-C Water Sensor is a small, very effective device that is meant to let residents know about water leaks early on, so they can avoid flood damage. As a ZigBee HA 1.2-certified device, it works with a lot of different smart home devices. This sensor can find as little as 0.5 ounces of water, which makes it very delicate and good at letting people know about leaks as soon as they happen. It can also set off a whole-home water shutdown system that stops the flow of water right away when a leak is found. This keeps the home from getting too much water damage. The sensor can handle water and has a ZigBee repeater put in to make the network range better in the smart home ecosystem. It was designed to be as simple as possible, and the “pull-to- pair” installation process is so simple that people can do it themselves. With its powerful features and ease of installation, the Centralite 3315-C is an important tool for keeping any modern home safe and secure.

Dimension
Usage
- Placement : Install the sensor near potential sources of water leaks such as under sinks, near water heaters, or in basement areas prone to flooding. It can be placed directly on any non-conductive surface like granite, tile, or concrete.
- Integration with Smart Home Systems : Pair the sensor with any ZigBee HA 1.2 certified hub to ensure that it functions as part of your broader smart home system. This allows for real-time alerts and automation, such as triggering a whole-home water shut-off valve if a leak is detected.
- Testing and Monitoring : Regularly test the sensor by applying a small amount of water to ensure it triggers the system as expected. Monitor the sensor’s performance through your smart home app to keep track of any alerts or issues.
Care and Maintenance
- Battery Replacement : The sensor operates on a CR-2 battery. Regularly check the battery level through your smart home system’s interface and replace the battery when low to ensure uninterrupted protection.
- Cleaning : Keep the sensor clean and free from dust and debris. Gently wipe the surface with a dry cloth to prevent buildup that could interfere with sensor operation.
- Environmental Considerations : Avoid placing the sensor in environments where it might be exposed to extreme temperatures or chemicals, as these conditions can affect the sensor’s functionality.
- Regular Checks : Periodically check the sensor’s placement to ensure it has not been moved or covered. Ensure that its location still represents a likely point for detecting leaks.
Troubleshooting
Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
---|---|---|
Sensor not responding | Out-of-range or low-battery | Ensure the sensor is |
within the ZigBee hub’s range and check/replace the battery.
