EM300 Device Installation

Installation Location

Keep the device away from metal objects and obstacles.

Wall Mounting

Step 1: Attach EM300 device to the wall and mark the two holes on the wall. The connecting line of two holes must be a horizontal line.

Step 2: Drill the holes according to the marks and screw the wall plugs into the wall.

Step 3: Mount the EM300 to the wall via mounting screws.

Step 4: Cover the mounting screws with screw caps.

Besides, it can also be mounted to the wall via a 3M tape.

Pole Mounting

Pass the cable tie through the mounting holes of the device and wrap the device to the pole.

Cable Installation

EM300-ZLD sensing cable consists of two black sensing wires and polyethylene. When the water cover the cable, touching sensing cables (soaking water length ≥ 3 cm and depth ≥ 1mm), the device will trigger the leakage alarms. It's important to note that this sensing cable does not pinpoint the exact location of the leakage.

Installation Locations

• The sensing cable can be wrapped around pipes, routed along to walls or placed on the floors.
• Ensure that the surfaces of the installation location are clean and free of debris, dirt, adhesive residues, water droplets, and other contaminants.

• Installation location should be away from foot traffic, sharp objects and areas where heavy items rolling, dropping on the cable.

• Keep the cable away from air-conditioning outlet or moist places to avoid error alarm report.

• The connectors should be kept away from the water to avoid error alarm report.

Connect Sensing Cable to EM300-ZLD Device

Connect the connector on one end of the sensing cable to the EM300-ZLD device connector, then tighten the connectors.

Note: The sensing cable comes with only one connector and does not support the connection of additional sensing cables to extend the detection length. If you need to expand the length, please contact Milesight to customize the cable length or purchase a sensing cable with connectors on both ends to replace the default one.

Install the Sensing Cable

Install the sensing cable at the designated installation locations.

Note:

• It is not suggested to fix the cable with glue which may damage the cable.
• Do not wrap the cable with metal objects to avoid the interference.

Install cable to floors/walls: Attach the sensing cable to the installation location without a gap and fix it tightly with cable clips. Do not fix the cable with glue or metal which may affect the detection sensitivity.

Install cable to pipes: Wrap the sensing cable around the pipe and fix it tightly with cable ties. When installing, the cable can’t be twined or accumulated together.

Maintenance

After removing the cable from the leakage location, dry the cable and ensure the leakage status back to “No Leak”. The cable can be reused in other places.

Tip: Although the sensing cable can resist dust and dirt, it is recommended to clean the cable regularly to maintain optimal detection sensitivity. When cleaning, remove the sensing cable from the EM300-ZLD device connector, then use alcohol or soap water to clean the cable and hang it to dry.
