Water Sensor SHT 5008

SHT 5008 Floor Water Sensor – The indestructible one for hard floors

Where normal sensors have long given up, the SHT 5008 is just getting started. Specifically designed for screed, concrete, tiles, GfK, or tarred surfaces — anywhere you need proper anchoring and screwing.

Three massive V4A stainless steel contacts, aluminum-reinforced drill hole, impact-resistant cast with Wepuran plastic resin: step-safe, corrosion-free, and virtually indestructible. 2 m LIYY cable (extendable up to 50 m), 3-wire for redundancy or rising water function on the SHT 5001 – or simply combine two wires and operate as the ultimate floor sensor on the SHT 5000/5001.

The design is uncompromisingly built for durability: No sensitive forks that break, no plastic that becomes brittle over time.

The SHT 5008 can withstand a broom, a chair, or the occasional step — yet still reliably detects the smallest puddle. Perfect for underground garages, boiler rooms, server rooms, industrial halls, or anywhere the floor is hard and the requirements even harder.

The SHT 5008 is every electrician’s favorite accessory who no longer has to worry about whether the sensor will survive the next winter. Once firmly anchored and connected, it does its job silently, reliably, and without ifs or buts for decades.
