Plug-in Water Detector SHT 450 with Sensor Cable

SHT 450 Water Detector – Comprehensive Protection with Sensor Cable

Water always finds the path of least resistance and often exactly where you cannot see it. The SHT 450 with a 2 m sensor cable from Elektrotechnik Schabus detects moisture at any point along the cable: under kitchen cabinets, behind the washing machine, around the aquarium, or along pipes.

As soon as water touches the cable, the plug-in device sounds a loud alarm (approx. 85 dB) and flashes red. Dry = automatically green again. 1 m white LIYY supply cable + 2 m black-white striped sensor cable – inconspicuously laid, abrasion-resistant, washable. Mains powered (230 V), no battery, extendable up to 50 m. The invisible bodyguard against costly water damage.

The technology is cleverly designed: Conductive polymer in the sensor cable reacts immediately anywhere – no need to search for the lowest point like with normal sensors. Cable is wipeable, corrosion-resistant, no exposed metal. Alarm directly from the socket unit – loud and clear. Automatic reset saves time and nerves.

The SHT 450 is more than a detector – it’s your comprehensive water watchdog. Whether dripping siphon, leaking washing machine, overflowing aquarium, or leak in underfloor heating: It finds it before you see it. Landlords, kitchen studios, aquarium hobbyists, and data center operators love the easy installation and 100% coverage. Once laid out, it simply does its job – potentially saving tens of thousands of euros in repair costs.
