The Extra Sensors that work with this console are shown below.

• FG586 Supervised Water Sensor. Supervised wired water sensor. 2" x 3" x 0.88" This sensor is a little shorter than a business card. Comes with 15' of two wire cable.
• 
  FG587 Supervised Under Carpet Water Sensor. This sensor is thinner than the FG586, so it is ideal for under a carpet. 2" x 3" x 0.18" Comes with 15' of two wire cable.

The FG580 comes with four FG 586 Supervised Water Sensors. You can add up to 4 additional supervised water sensors (sold separately), or 8 non-supervised additional water sensors.

• One year parts and labor; subject to conditions of limited warranty

The FG580 is easily mounted on a wall above the sensors with wires going to the sensors. The water sensors are built to minimize false alerts by not triggering from condensation or high humidity.

The Supervised Sensors FG586 and FG587 allow the FG580 to monitor the condition of the wire and sensor for alarm conditions such as water leaks. The FG521, FG522, FG523 are non-supervised sensors. They may be used with the FG580, but the alarm and LED status lights will not be functional. Use the FG586, or FG587 Supervised Sensors to take advantage of all the benefits offered by the FG580.

This is a wired sensor system. If you connect this to your water system, you will need to run a 4-wire 18 AWG cable (one 150 ft. cable is provided with the FG500) from the FG500 Water Controller to the FG580 Console to connect power, and the sensor alert to your water shut-off system.

If you intend to use this as a stand-alone water alarm system, you will need to order the FG589 power transformer to power the FG580

One year parts and labor; subject to conditions of manufacturers limited warranty. Comes with Installation and Owners Guide.
