Flood detector
Made in Czech Republic
• The ood detector is used to detect water leakage - the activation occurs the mo-
ment the ooding of the contacts located on the underside of the detector occurs.
• Provides a quick solution to learn about unwanted ooding in your bathroom or
kitchen that you can react too immediately.
• With a wireless LoRa communication network the device can be immediately put in
the desired location and run immediately.
• Flood detection is signalled by vibration, optical and acoustic signalling. In the case
of water detection, data is sent to the server, ...
• Data is sent to the server from which it can be subsequently displayed as a smart-
phone, application, or Cloud notication.
• Anti-sabotage: If access to the device is unauthorized, a message is immediately
sent to the server.
• Power supply: 1x CR123A battery.

Function
The detector is designed to detect the presence of water in flooded areas such as cel-
lars, bathrooms, warehouses, etc. It is suitable for dealing with potentially recurring
situations such as bath overflow, washing machine, dishwasher, boiler, blockages or foul
waste, and floods due to groundwater, river or other emergencies.
Detector states
• Alarm - when the scanning contact is connected, the detector sends the data message
and starts the set alarm. The signalling type can be set by the DIP switch. Signalling
stops after 3 minutes even if the reason for the alarm has not been removed. In case of
positive detection, the audible alarm is restored after 5 minutes.
• Terminate the alarm after a few seconds after the flood has dropped (disconnect the
connection contacts).
• The data status report is sent at twelve-hour intervals (can be edited by a message
from the server). In case of detection 2 seconds after connection of sensing contacts.
Commissioning
• Remove the protective tape from the sensor contacts.
• To activate the detector, place a conductive object (such as the included paper clips) on
the sensing contacts. Hold for 20 seconds. The detector triggers a light and beep and
sends an initial message.
• CAUTION: The ood detector detects only the presence of liquid that has reached the
sensor. Liquid may be present in other areas.
• Always be aware of potential dangers, develop safety awareness, and take precautions
to avoid dangers whenever and wherever needed. The detector can reduce the likeli-
hood of catastrophe but cannot guarantee 100% safety.
Important Notice
Internet of Things (IoT)
• The IOT wireless communications category describes the Low Power Wide Area
(LPWA). This technology is designed to provide full-range coverage both inside and
outside buildings, energy-saving and low-cost operation of individual devices. The
LoRa network is available to use this standard.
LoRa network information
• The network is bidirectional and its communication uses free frequency band.
• 865 - 867 MHz India
• 867 - 869 MHz Europe
• 902 - 928 MHz North America, Japan, Korea
• The advantage of this network is the possibility of freely deploying individual stations
in local locations, thus strengthening their signal. It can therefore be used eciently in
company premises or, for example, in local parts of cities.
• For more information on this technology, please visit www.lora-alliance.org.
Caution for proper operation:
• Products are installed according to the wiring diagram given for each product.
• For proper device functionality, it is necessary to have sucient coverage of the se-
lected network at the installation site.
• At the same time, the device must be registered in the network. Successful device reg-
istration on a given network requires a charge for trac.
• Each network oers dierent tari options - it always depends on the number of mes-
sages you want to send from your device. Information on these taris can be found in
the current version of the ELKO EP pricelist.

Replacement of a battery
1. Use a screwdriver to open the detector.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Use a metal object (such as a screwdriver) to connect the battery holders (to reset the
device). Caution - Do not touch other parts of the device with a metal object!
5. Insert the battery and check the correct location (when the battery is inserted, the
detector functionality message will be sent to the application).
6. Replace the seal, attach the front cover - make sure the correct location. Screw in,
tighten the screws to maintain IP protection.
7. Commissioning: To activate the detector, place a conductive object (such as the in-
cluded paper clips) on the sensing contacts. Hold for 20 seconds. The detector triggers
a light and beep and sends an initial message.
Notice:
Only use batteries designed for this product correctly inserted in the device! Immediately replace
weak batteries with new ones. Do not use new and used batteries together. If necessary, clean the
battery and contacts prior to using. Avoid battery shorts! Do not dispose of batteries in water or
re. Do not dismantle batteries, do not try to charge them and protect them from extreme heating
- danger of leakage! Upon contact with acid, immediately rinse the aected area with a stream of
water and seek medical attention. Keep batteries out of the reach of children. If it is suspected that
the battery has been swallowed or somehow placed inside the body, consult a doctor immediately.
Give the doctor information about the type of battery (from battery case, device or its manual, etc.)
to determine the chemical composition of the battery. Batteries must be recycled or returned to an
appropriate location (e.g. collection container) in accordance with local legal provisions.
Signal settings
1. Use a screwdriver to open the detector.
2. Set the DIP as required (all DIP switch positions are on by default).
- Position 1: turn o optical signal
- Position 2: turn o mechanical signal
- Position 3: turn o sound signal
6. Replace the seal, attach the front cover - make sure the correct location. Screw in,
tighten the screws to maintain IP protection.

Safe handling
Placement recommendations
Place the activated detector on a flat, non-conductive surface where flooding is likely.
The detector requires no maintenance and is intended for indoor use.
If a ood is detected, your immediate attention and action is required.
It is essential to identify the source of the ood and take appropriate action.
What to do when flood is detected
When handling a device unboxed it is important to avoid contact with
liquids. avoid unnecessary contact with the components of the device. Do
not touch the metal objects inside the unit.

Warning
Read the operating instructions before installing the device and putting it into opera-
tion. Instruction manual is designated for mounting and also for user of the device. It is
always a part of its packing. Installation and connection can be carried out only by a per-
son with adequate professional qualication upon understanding this instruction man-
ual and functions of the device, and while observing all valid regulations. Trouble-free
function of the device also depends on transportation, storing and handling. In case you
notice any sign of damage, deformation, malfunction or missing part, do not install this
device and return it to its seller. It is necessary to treat this product and its parts as elec-
tronic waste after its lifetime is terminated. Before starting installation, make sure that all
wires, connected parts or terminals are de-energized. While mounting and servicing ob-
serve safety regulations, norms, directives and professional, and export regulations for
working with electrical devices. Do not touch parts of the device that are energized – life
threat. To ensure the transmission of the radio signal, make sure that the devices in the
building where the installation is installed are correctly located. Unless otherwise stated,
the devices are not intended for installation in outdoor and damp areas, they must not
be installed in metal switchboards or in plastic cabinets with metal doors - this prevents
transmission of the radio frequency signal. iNELS Air is not recommended for control-
ling life-saving instruments or for controlling hazardous devices such as pumps, heaters
without thermostat, lifts, hoists, etc. - radio frequency transmission may be overshad-
owed by obstruction, interference, transmitter battery may be discharged etc., thereby
disabling the remote control.
