GOCONTROL SMART Flow detector

The GoControl

™

family of Z-Wave

certiﬁ ed wireless lighting products (smart

LED bulbs, switches, dimmers, outlets, plug-in modules), security devices

(alert sounder, motion sensor, and door/window sensor), and control products

(garage door controller and thermostat) bring a new level of intelligent wireless

capability to commercial and residential environments.

The Z-Wave wireless protocol is an international wireless standard for remote

home automation, security and other applications. Embedded in each device,

the Z-Wave smart chip enables two-way RF communication among hundreds

of Z-Wave enabled devices, allowing products and services from multiple

manufacturers to work seamlessly.

The FlowZ WL00Z-1 Smart Flow detector is simple to set up and provides

whole house monitoring of water ﬂ ow that can alert you to catastrophic water

leaks like slab leaks, cracked pipes or a chronically running faucet.

GoControl Z-Wave products are easy to install, are Z-Wave Plus certiﬁ ed, and

allow dealers to create an integrated wireless network with nearly limitless

expansion and interoperability with security, energy management, home

entertainment, appliances, and more.

As part of a Z-Wave network, the WL00Z-1 will also act as a wireless repeater

to insure that commands intended for another device in the network are

received. This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio

range of the wireless controller.

For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.

Z-WAVE PLUS FEATURES

The WL00Z-1 contains a Z-Wave 500 Series Module that supports

Z-Wave Plus

features. A Z-Wave certiﬁ ed portable or stationary Controller

can communicate with the Z-Wave 500 Series Module.

Depending on the capability of the Controller or gateway software, the following

operations will be performed by Smart Flow Detector. Refer to the controller or

gateway manual for details.

• Send an alert if water is running.

• Add or Remove Smart Flow Detector. Over-the-air firmware update by the

gateway or static Controller.

• Lifeline function which automatically notifies the associated modules and

the network that a manually reset device is no longer in the network, thus,

the corresponding association becomes invalid.

INSTALLATION

The WL00Z-1 Smart Flow detector module straps on a water pipe over the

foam pipe insulator covering the stick-on sensor strip that directly contacts the

pipe. The sensor strip that detects water ﬂ ow plugs into the detector module.

The detector module is powered by a UL Listed plug-in power supply that also

plugs into the detector.

Pipe Preparation

1. Examine the water piping of the installation. Find the incoming line from

the meter or the line to be monitored. The WL00Z-1 must be installed

indoors on a copper pipe 3/4 to 1”diameter. Monitoring of PVC,cast iron,

galvanized or any other type of pipe is not supported.

2. Determine the direction of the water ﬂ ow through the pipe to be monitored.

3. Clean a 6” section of the pipe with the included abrasive cleaning pad.

To ensure good contact with the ﬂ ow sensor, be sure to clean completely

around the pipe.

NOTE: This unit must be added to the Network only where it will be permanently installed. The proper operation of this node in the

mesh network is dependent on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes. You cannot “test bench” conﬁ gure this unit, then install.

CALIBRATION Flow Detector Installation 1. Look for the water ﬂow direction arrow on the stick-on sensor strip. 2. Carefully peel off the stick-on sensor strip backing and afﬁx the sensor strip long-wise to the cleaned off section of the pipe. Be sure the water ﬂow direction in the pipe matches the ﬂow direction arrow on the sensor strip. 3. Position the red silicone insulator completely over the sensor strip, then secure the insulator and sensor to the pipe with two evenly spaced wire ties (included).

e o t r n e e y a e e r e . n e g r t , e d Z-WAVE PROGRAMMING Associations The WL00Z-1 supports one level of Z-Wave association. Group 1 association is used to identify another Z-Wave device in the network that will receive unsolicited state changes and notiﬁcation (alarm) events. For instructions on how to “set lifeline association” please refer to your wireless controller instructions.
