System Description

The WaterCop

®

System is designed to detect leaks in

your plumbing system at predetermined locations, and
automatically shut off the water supply to help effec-
tively reduce the chances of major water damage
associated with a leak.

System Components

The WaterCop

®

Systems are composed of two basic

parts:

• A motorized ball valve that houses a wireless radio 

receiver which automatically turns off your water 
supply when any flood sensor detects water or low 
temperature sensor detects potential freezing.

• Flood sensors which detect water from a leak or 

overflow, house wireless a radio transmitter that
sends a signal to the WaterCop

®

to turn off your 

water supply.

General Safety Information

Warning

Do not apply electrical power to the unit unless the unit
is fully assembled (as it shipped).  Failure to do so
could result in personal injury and/or damage to the
unit.

Warning

Disconnect power source before working on or
servicing the unit.  Failure to do so could result in
personal injury.

Caution

It is strongly recommended that eye
protection be worn while servicing
the system.  Failure to do so could
result in personal injury
.

How the System Works

Flood sensors constantly monitor their selected areas
for accumulating moisture. When a leak is detected, a
sensor will send a radio frequency signal to the
WaterCop

®

unit instructing it to shut off the water sup-

ply to the home. The WaterCop

®

valve will remain

closed until it is manually reset.

The flood sensors are a battery powered device
