Smart Water Leakage Sensor

The Smart Water Leakage Sensor is an Orvibo WL10ZW smart-home sensor designed to detect water leaks and flooding and send a Zigbee alert when water reaches its sensing contacts.

The model is WL10ZW.

It detects water leakage and flooding by sensing electrical conductivity between its water-detection contacts.

Yes. The sensor uses Zigbee 3.0 / Zigbee HA wireless communication.

No. The sensor communicates through Zigbee. A compatible Zigbee gateway can connect the sensor to the wider smart-home network and provide app-based functions.

Yes. A compatible Zigbee gateway is required for smart-home integration, remote monitoring and app-based notification functions.

The sensor uses a CR2032 button battery.

Battery life can reach approximately 24 months under suitable operating conditions. Actual performance depends on network conditions, detection activity and environmental factors.

Yes. Low-battery status can be reported through the compatible smart-home app ecosystem.

The specified communication range is up to approximately 100 metres in open-area conditions. Actual indoor range depends on walls, interference and the Zigbee network.

The specified operating temperature range is -10°C to +55°C.

The sensor supports up to 95% relative humidity under non-condensing conditions.

The sensor has an IP65 protection rating. It is designed for suitable damp environments but should be installed according to its environmental specifications.

It can be placed near potential leak sources such as sinks, washing machines, dishwashers, water heaters, pipes, bathrooms, kitchens and basements.

Yes. The area beneath a kitchen sink is a suitable location for monitoring potential plumbing leaks.

Yes. It can be positioned near a washing machine to help detect leakage from hoses, connections or surrounding plumbing.

Yes. It can be used in suitable bathroom locations near toilets, sinks, pipes and other potential water-leak points.

Yes, it can participate in a compatible smart-home automation where a Zigbee-enabled or otherwise compatible smart water valve is configured to respond to a leak event.

Yes. A compatible smart-home system can use a leak event to trigger an alarm or siren.

Yes. With compatible smart-home devices and automation rules, a water-leak event can be configured to turn on smart lighting.

Yes. When connected through a compatible Zigbee gateway and smart-home application, the system can send water-leak notifications to a smartphone.

Yes. The sensor can act as a trigger for compatible smart-home scenes and automation routines.

The sensor is designed for integration with the compatible HomeMate smart-home ecosystem.

The specified dimensions are approximately 60 × 60 × 15mm.

The housing uses PC + ABS material with a fire-retardant construction.

Yes. AES-128 encryption is specified for the Zigbee communication.

Yes. It is suitable for indoor water-leak monitoring in Dubai homes, villas and apartments when installed within its specified temperature, humidity and protection requirements.

Yes. It can help monitor areas around plumbing, water equipment and other potential leak points in offices and suitable commercial spaces.

No. The sensor is battery powered and communicates wirelessly through Zigbee.

After pairing the sensor with the compatible Zigbee gateway, place a small controlled amount of water so it reaches the sensing contacts and confirm that the expected alert or automation is triggered.

Check the battery, Zigbee gateway and network connection. If necessary, move the sensor closer to the gateway or improve the Zigbee network coverage.

Check the sensing contacts for moisture, condensation, dirt or residue. Clean the sensor carefully and make sure it is installed in a suitable location.

No. The Zigbee gateway is a separate component required for smart-home network integration.

No. A compatible smart water valve is required separately if automatic water shut-off is needed.
