Aqualeak
What can you do with Aqualeak and Niko Home Control?
Get a notification when water leakage is detected
If you connect your water leakage sensor to Niko Home Control, you can get a notification when water is detected. You will be informed via the Niko Home app on a tablet or smartphone and/or the Touchscreen.
We recommend the following options to make even better use of this connection:
Close the water valve automatically when water leakage is detected, see https://guide.niko.eu/en/smnhc2/lv/creating-a-condition.
What do you need?
Niko requirements
Your Niko Home Control installation meets the following requirements:
It has a wireless smart hub or a connected controller II.
It is configured with the most recent programming software.
Depending on the basic modules of your Niko Home Control installation, you need to install the following additional products:
Required additional products | Reference numbers | |
|---|---|---|
Connected controller | Digital potential-free sensor module with one free input per signal that you want to use in Niko Home Control If the output contact on your third-party device is not potential-free, you need an additional potential-free contact module (e.g. Finder 22.32.0.230.1xx0 for 230 V connections, Finder 22.32.0.012.1xx0 for 12 V DC connections, Finder 22.32.0.024.1xx0 for 24 V DC connections) | |
Connected controller with a wireless bridge | Connected (double) switch with one free input (E) per signal that you want to use in Niko Home Control If the output contact on your third-party device is not 230 V, you need an additional 230 V contact module (e.g. Finder 22.32.0.230.1xx0 for potential-free connections, Finder 22.32.0.012.1xx0 for 12 V DC connections, Finder 22.32.0.024.1xx0 for 24 V DC connections) The connected (double) switch can be placed on a DIN rail using a modular holder (e.g. Legrand 412950) | |
Wireless smart hub | Connected (double) switch with one free input (E) per signal that you want to use in Niko Home Control If the output contact on your third-party device is not 230 V, you need an additional 230 V contact module (e.g. Finder 22.32.0.230.1xx0 for potential-free connections, Finder 22.32.0.012.1xx0 for 12 V DC connections, Finder 22.32.0.024.1xx0 for 24 V DC connections) The connected (double) switch can be placed on a DIN rail using a modular holder (e.g. Legrand 412950) |
