The TTA-SIM has been designed for use with TraceTek sensing cables, point sensors and normally open, dry contact devices (float switch, pressure or vacuum switch, optical probe with adapter, limit switch, etc.). Up to 150 m (500 ft) of sensor cable can be monitored by the TTA-SIM.
When liquid is detected, the unit indicates the leak with an LED and audible alarm and switches a relay to provide local voltage-free contact closure. The leak location is measured and can be communicated to a host monitoring system. With the TTA-SIM-2 option, the leak location is displayed on a built-in LCD readout. No field calibration is required.
The TTA-SIM can be used as a stand-alone leak detection alarm unit, or it can be installed in networks with other TraceTek TTASIM, TTSIM, TT-NRM or TTDM-128 modules. The TTA-SIM can be configured using a Microsoft Windows™ based PC or a TraceTek TTDM-128 network master module.
