External extension sensors

In addition to the monitoring areas already covered by the MultiSensors, the ability to connect external sensors opens up a wide range of other applications. For example, external units such as air conditioning systems, mains fuse monitoring, UPS systems or general system fault messages can be connected. In the usual Kentix consistency, our external sensors are connected either plug 'n' play via the Kentix system socket (SYSPORT) or via external I/O modules with Ethernet and POE.
Of course, all modules are monitored by KentixONE to prevent or immediately report failures or sabotage.

Water leakage sensor for Kentix systemport

Leakage sensor for detecting water and flooding
Sysport (TYPE A)
  • Plug 'n Play connection
  • Sensor sensitivity adjustable
  • 5-fold cascadable
  • Monitored for cable break
The leakage sensor is used to detect water leakage on the floor and is connected to an SiteManager or MultiSensor directly to the Kentix system port (TYP A). It continuously detects conductivity via multiple electrodes directly on the housing or additionally via a sensor cable.The sensor has an integrated point sensor with adjustable sensitivity. The versions with sensor cable (KLS03-ROPE-10/20) detect water in addition to the point sensor over the entire sensor cable length (10/20m). The sensitivity of the point sensor is 1-2ml water, the sensitivity of the sensor cable is approx. 10ml water over 20cm cable length.The leakage sensor can be cascaded up to 5 times and is therefore also suitable for large rooms.

How does leakage monitoring work?

The Kentix leakage sensor is a conductive sensor that is connected to a Kentix device with system port (TYPE A) and continuously measures the conductivity via several electrodes. It is connected to the Kentix system port via a standard patch cable and can therefore be easily "patched" into structured IT cabling.

The leakage sensor also has a 10m or 20m sensor cable whose integrated sensors detect water ingress at an early stage along the entire length of the sensor cable. The leakage sensor can be cascaded up to 5 times and is therefore also suitable for large rooms.

I/O expansion modules for external alarms with Ethernet (PoE)

Digital I/O-Module with 16 digital inputs
LAN (PoE)
  • 16 digital inputs (for dry contacts)
  • connection of external alarm messages
  • Integrated web server
  • Ethernet 10/100MBit (PoE)
The I/O expansion module connects to an AlarmManager/SiteManager and is used to connect external alarm messages. The communication takes place via Ethernet. Thus, the module can be mounted at any location. The configuration is done in the KentixONE..16 digital inputs for dry-contacts (e.g. air-conditioning, UPS system, external sensors, etc.)

I/O expansion modules

The I/O extension modules are used to connect external fault messages via electrical transfer contacts. For example, alarm messages from external systems such as generators, UPS systems, air conditioning systems, etc. can be easily integrated and monitored.

The I/O expansion modules are integrated into KentixONE via Ethernet and the power is supplied via PoE. This means that the modules can be installed anywhere in the network. The configuration is carried out via KentixONE. The module offers a simple basic IP configuration via the integrated web server and the option of testing the inputs/outputs without additional software.

When selecting the I/O modules, the different input signals must be taken into account. In 80% of applications, so-called "potential-free contacts" are connected. These are pure transfer contacts without voltage potential. The I/O module with 16 digital inputs (ART: KIO7053) is the ideal and most common solution for this. However, live connections with 12-50VDC or analogue signals with 0-10VDC or 4-20mA can also be integrated with the corresponding modules.
