Partition Sensor

No, the contact on the receiver is not a dry contact. The Partition Sensor operates with a powered circuit, as it requires a 10-30VDC supply voltage and provides a sensor control output. This means the contact is not voltage-free but instead part of an active circuit.

Thank you for your question regarding powering the Wattstopper Partition Sensor from a 12VDC GPIO on a control processor. The Partition Sensor requires a supply voltage of 10–30 VDC, which means a 12VDC GPIO output falls within the acceptable range for basic power requirements​ . However, there are important considerations to keep in mind: 1. Current Requirements: The sensor can sink up to 100mA. It’s crucial to verify that your GPIO output can supply sufficient current to meet this demand without compromising system stability. 2. Support Limitations: Connecting the sensor outside of the manufacturer’s specified configuration—such as directly to a GPIO rather than through the recommended BZ-50 power pack—may result in performance issues. Wattstopper may not be able to provide support for installation, maintenance, or troubleshooting in such setups. 3. Warranty Considerations: Using the device outside its intended application may affect warranty coverage, as it’s not being operated within the scope of its designed use.

PARTITION-SENSOR is the name/part# of the device.

Have you found a mounting solution for this? We also have instances where a different style bracket would be ideal.
