SHT 8800 Active Water Sensor with Analog Voltage

SHT 8800 Active Water Sensor

Finally, a water sensor that perfectly matches modern analog inputs. As soon as water touches the two V4A stainless steel contacts, the output voltage immediately rises to about 80–90% of the operating voltage – ideal for high-impedance inputs from Loxone, WAGO, Beckhoff, KNX-BMS, Home Assistant, ioBroker, and all other systems that appreciate true analog values.

As robust as ever with Schabus: walk-on safe, impact-resistant, aluminum-reinforced mounting hole, fully encapsulated with Wepuran – and of course supplied with a 4 m LIYY cable (extendable up to 20 m). The electronics are active, and therefore extremely sensitive – detecting even water with very low conductivity (except pure distilled water).

The SHT 8800 is the favorite of integrators and building automation professionals. Once connected to the analog input, your system instantly and continuously knows: “There is water here!” – no relays, no discrete inputs, just clean analog technology.

The SHT 8800 at a glance:

  • Active analog signal: When water is present → 80–90% of the supply voltage.
  • 2 V4A stainless steel contacts: Maximum corrosion resistance.
  • Encapsulated with Wepuran: Impact-resistant, walk-on safe, durable.
  • Aluminum-reinforced mounting hole: Rock-solid floor installation.
  • 4 m LIYY 3×0.14 mm²: Extendable up to a maximum of 20 m.
  • High-impedance measurement: Perfect for smart home and BMS applications.
  • Extremely sensitive: Also detects weakly conductive water.
  • Made in Germany: Original Schabus quality.

Perfect for modern systems

  • Loxone, WAGO, Beckhoff, Siemens LOGO!
  • KNX building technology & BMS systems
  • Home Assistant, openHAB, ioBroker
  • PLCs & industrial controllers with analog inputs
  • Data centers & server rooms

Important: Not suitable for classic Schabus water detectors (SHT 5000/5001) – for those, use the passive sensors.

A small sensor with a big impact: finally, true analog water detection for building automation professionals.
