Emerson 460 Manuel D’Utilisation

1. Attach the leak detection cable to the LT460 module.
2. Activate module and test detection cable. (Touch detection cable 

with a clean moist cloth or paper towel.) Dry detection cable to 

remove the alarm condition. (A hair dryer can be used to speed up 

the drying.)
Note: Do not try to saturate the detection cable for testing! It only 

requires a small amount of water to alarm. The detection cable will 

have to dry for the alarm condition to clear.

3. Once the cable passes the test, lay it in the pattern desired.

• Do not use detection cable that is damaged or dirty—for 

example, from plaster, spackle or construction debris.

• Detection cable should not be dragged through contaminants 

(dirty or greasy areas). Floor must be clean for the detection 

cable to function properly and for the hold-down clips to 

adhere to the floor surface.

• Careful consideration should be taken to place detection cable 

out of the direct discharge airflow path of environmental 

equipment. This type of equipment can discharge moisture 

into the airflow. Place cable six feet from discharge to avoid 

nuisance alarms during humidification.

• Tools or heavy objects can do permanent damage when 

dropped, rolled, or set on the detection cable. Avoid foot traffic 

on the detection cable as well.

• Do not use any type of adhesive tapes to secure the detection 

cable.

• Do not allow soldering or welding near the detection cable 

without providing protection from heat or contaminants. (Also 

avoid installing the detection cable in or near these type of 

areas.)

• Mild dishwashing liquid can be used to clean the detection 

cable of many contaminants.
