RectorSeal delivered the gold-winning product in the Testing and Monitoring Products category of the 2013 Dealer Design Awards. RectorSeal’s Safe-T-Switch SS610E is an electronic condensate overflow switch that detects clogged a/c condensate drains and subsequently shuts off the system. The product is designed specifically for ductless mini splits.
According to the manufacturer, the small sensor on the product can fit in the confined internal spaces of most units. It can also be installed directly in the drain pan or clipped to the unit’s coils. SS610E’s CPU unit is housed in a casing that can be mounted directly to the side of the unit. The product’s logic circuit continuously samples the probes for water and will shut down the system if water is detected. Onboard LEDs indicate the condition of the unit at a glance, removing any guesswork for the contractor. The SS610 E will automatically reset once the water subsides, allowing the a/c to resume normal operation.
