Water Sensor SHT 5006 Fork Sensor

SHT 5006 Fork Water Sensor – The proven classic used millions of times

For decades the standard beneath washing machines, dishwashers, and in technical rooms: The SHT 5006 fork sensor from Elektrotechnik Schabus.

Two nickel-plated brass contacts, cleanly injected into white plastic, 6 meters LIYY cable (extendable up to 50 m) – and it reliably detects any leakage before it becomes a disaster. Thanks to the wide fork, biofilms, condensation, and light moisture are excluded – alarm only triggers on actual puddles.

The design is simple, ingenious, and almost indestructible: No moving parts, no sensitive gold contacts that corrode. Simply place on the floor or fix with an adhesive pad – done. Perfect for all regularly dry areas: under washing and dishwashers, near heaters, in server rooms, or anywhere you want early warning of leaks.

The SHT 5006 is the original that generations of installers trust. Used millions of times, unchanged for decades – because it simply works. Once connected to SHT 5000, 5001, or 5002, it performs its job for decades – maintenance-free, battery-free, hassle-free.
