HW-group WLD A Prolong Cable

Water leaks pose a major risk to server rooms, data centers, and industrial facilities. While many organizations focus on fire safety, access control, or redundancy, water intrusion risks are often overlooked. The HW-group WLD A Prolong Cable is essential for extending detection range, enabling scalable monitoring setups, and ensuring reliable protection against hidden leaks.

Used as an extension between sensitive water detection sensor cables and controllers, the WLD A Prolong Cable itself is non-sensitive, serving only to transmit signals and extend monitoring range. Supporting total coverage of up to 185 meters, it enables large-scale facilities to secure hard-to-reach areas.

Importance of Range Extension

Effective leak detection depends on full coverage. In large server environments, critical cooling and water lines often run below raised floors, distant from controllers. Without range extension, critical areas remain unprotected. The HW-group WLD A Prolong Cable solves this, ensuring uninterrupted coverage across extensive areas without reducing detection precision.

Technical Features

• Standard length: 5 m, extendable up to 100 m of prolong cables
• Max total detection chain: 185 m (100 m prolong + 85 m sensing cable)
• Non-sensitive cable – signal transmission only
• Compatible with HWg-WLD2, NB-WLD, SD-WLD, WLD Relay 1W-UNI
• Flexible installation using clips or adhesive
• Durable design for long-term use in industrial and IT environments
• Robust build for raised floors, machine halls, or labs

Integration into Monitoring Ecosystem

Part of HW-group’s monitoring portfolio, the WLD A Prolong Cable integrates with SensDesk and HWg-cloud. Combined with WLD detection cables and controllers, users receive real-time alerts via email, SMS, or SNMP traps, as well as PDF reports and detailed event logs. Open standards ensure easy integration into SCADA or IT systems.

Typical Applications

• Server rooms – reliable leak detection from AC units or pipes
• Data centers – continuous coverage under raised floors
• Industrial plants – monitoring cooling circuits and pipelines
• Building automation – securing archives, basements, and wet zones
• Critical infrastructure – medical and laboratory environment protection

Installation & Maintenance

The WLD A Prolong Cable installs easily between detection cables or between detection cables and control units. A terminator ensures correct end-of-line resistance. Its rugged design supports placement along walls, floors, or pipelines in tough environments without functional issues.

Long-Term Value

WLD A Prolong Cables allow systems to evolve flexibly. Operators can extend monitoring coverage step by step, adapting infrastructure protection to new demands while lowering damage risks and repair costs. This makes it an indispensable tool for professional leak detection in IT, industrial, and facility monitoring.

The HW-group WLD A Prolong Cable is more than just an extension – it is a core component for scalable leak detection systems. Reliable, robust, and fully integrated into SensDesk and HW-Group monitoring ecosystems, it ensures complete leak protection across IT, industry, and building environments.
