Identi-Leak IL-WDP-H | Probe Height Adjustment Bracket | Floor Mount, 12mm Range

FAQs

Why is a height adjuster needed for water leak detection probes?

Floor surfaces are rarely perfectly level, with many environments featuring drainage falls, expansion joints, or minor irregularities. The height adjuster compensates for these variations (up to 12 mm) to maintain consistent probe contact with the floor surface. Without height adjustment, probes on uneven floors may not make proper contact, potentially missing water leaks or generating false alarms from intermittent contact.

Can the height be adjusted after the initial installation?

Yes, the Identi-Leak Height Adjuster is designed for easy adjustment even after installation. This allows maintenance personnel to fine-tune probe positioning if floor conditions change, if initial calibration needs refinement, or if system performance testing reveals the need for adjustment without requiring complete reinstallation.

How much height variation can the adjuster accommodate?

The height adjuster accommodates up to 12 mm of height variation. This range covers most common floor irregularities including drainage falls, minor settling, expansion joint variations, and typical surface unevenness found in commercial and industrial environments.

What types of installations benefit most from height adjusters?

Height adjusters prove particularly valuable in plant rooms, data centres, server rooms, and technical spaces where floors may have intentional drainage falls or minor level variations. They’re also beneficial in older buildings where floor surfaces may have settled unevenly, or in any installation where maintaining consistent probe-to-floor contact is challenging due to surface irregularities.

How do height adjusters prevent false alarms?

False alarms often occur when probes make intermittent contact with uneven floor surfaces, causing the system to register brief detection events that aren’t actual water leaks. The height adjuster maintains consistent, stable probe contact regardless of minor floor variations, eliminating these intermittent contact issues and reducing nuisance alarms that waste time and reduce confidence in the system.

Are height adjusters compatible with all Identi-Leak probes?

Yes, the height adjuster is designed to work with Identi-Leak detection probes as part of the comprehensive water leak detection system. The mounting design accommodates standard probe configurations while providing the necessary height adjustment capability.
