Easy-to-install indoor alarm system with WiFi connectivity, remote notification, 2 alarm inputs, temperature alarm, auto reset and battery backup
The CSION® WiFi alarm system monitors and reports 2 separate alarm conditions for sump pump basins, lift pump chambers, holding tanks, sewage, agricultural and other water applications. The system monitors and reports any residential alarm condition by notifying locally (audible and visual) and remotely (SMS text message and/or email) over a WiFi or Ethernet network to a smartphone, tablet or computer. The sleek design of the enclosure, with its unique shape, smooth rounded edges, and large push button with LED light ring, makes this attractive alarm ideal for residential applications.
When the tank level rises, the high water float activates the alarm to warn of potentially threatening liquid level conditions. The CSION® WiFi alarm system features an easy-to-see LED alarm light ring that illuminates red for alarm 1 and amber for alarm 2. The alarm horn can be silenced by pressing the large button, but the LED remains on as long as the alarm condition exists. Once the condition is cleared, the alarm automatically resets. A red “Low Temperature” LED activates when the temperature falls below 40°F (4°C) to help protect against freezing pipes; this can be disabled for installations in cold areas.
No cellular connection is needed (no monthly fees), but it does require the homeowner to have a reliable WiFi network and connection to the internet for the alarm system to send remote notifications. Text messages can be sent to a cellphone with active SMS service.

WS360 WATER SENSOR (OPTIONAL)
The WS360 water sensor is available exclusively with the CSION® WiFi alarm. When connected to a CSION® WiFi alarm, is designed to warn of potential water damage to end users. Place this sensor in any location where there is a risk of water damage: utility room, laundry, kitchen, bathroom, basement, AC drip pans, etc. When water reaches any side, top or bottom of the 360° sensor, an audible/visual alarm is activated; as well as remote notification sent via email/text to the contact(s) for the smart device set up with WiFi alarm unit. Up to five sensors may be connected in series to monitor multiple locations with one single alarm. One-year limited warranty.
