Dry Contact Sensor
DCS-10
The DCS-10 monitors the state of up to three dry-contact pairs and reports status changes over wanwave LPWAN. It supports immediate status-change notification and periodic data updates at intervals of less than six hours, providing remote visibility into connected contact states. BLE is available for local configuration.
Powered by a 3.6 V lithium thionyl chloride battery, the sensor has a battery life of ten years and transmission power below 25 mW. Its compact, IP68-rated enclosure measures 89 × 80 × 48 mm and weighs 255 g.

Connectivity & integration
DCS-10 monitors compatible dry-contact outputs and transmits status changes over wanwave’s proprietary network through a compatible gateway. The gateway forwards the data to wanwave monitoring platforms or your existing IT systems. Leak detection requires a compatible connected leak detector. The sensor operates on battery power, and Bluetooth is used for configuration.
