*California requires annual certification of all leak detection equipment. The certification of discriminating sensors should include functional testing of both water and product detection capabilities.

ES820-100 Non-Discriminating Liquid Sensor

  Unleaded Gasoline Diesel Water
Detection time (sec) <1 <1 <1
Fall time (sec) <1 <1 <1
Lower detection limit (in) 0.35 0.34 0.35

ES820-200 Discriminating Liquid Sensor: This sensor can only respond to liquid directly in contact with the detection element, and is unable to detect a product release floating on an existing pool of water whose height exceeds the level of the detection element.
