Water-resistance protection
For those models with water resistance (TW models), which
have been tested by the independent testing firm ETL SEMKO
and certified to be in compliance with the manufacturer’s
specifications for water-resistant protection. Products were
immersed in up to 1’ of water for up to 72 hours and withstood
water leakage.
Water-resistant models must be bolted down.
The supplied hardware MUST BE USED to bolt the
safe to the floor to assure the watertight seal, or the
water-resistant claim is invalid.
NOTE: It is normal to feel a slight amount of resistance
when closing the door and locking water
resistant models.
NOTE: Sentry Group is not responsible for any costs
incurred if unit is to be replaced.
