Watts A2C-M1 automatic washing machine shutoff 0004640
Series A2C-M1 IntelliFlow Automatic Washing Machine Water Shutoff Valves with Leak Sensor are used in residential applications to protect against catastrophic water damage from a burst inlet hose connected to a washing machine in use or unattended. The Series A2C-M1 IntelliFlow senses when the washing machine is on or off, and then opens or closes the hot and cold inlet valves as needed to allow or prevent water from flowing to the washer. If the Series A2C-M1 detects a leak, current flow to both the hot and cold water valves are immediately interrupted and closed. It consists of an electrical three-prong outlet to receive a washing machine power cable, leak sensor, a power cord, and a replaceable internal strainer screen. Maximum Pressure: 150psi.
Maximum Pressure: 150psi (10 bars)
Maximum Temperature: 180 F (82 C)
Current draw (with appliance off): 20mA
Maximum appliance current rating: 15A
Circuit breaker requirement: 15 amp. GFI
It is suggested that the electrical power source be ground fault protected.
Comes with Leak Sensor (A2C-LS) shown below

IntelliFlow Automatic Washing Machine Shutoff Valves
Protect your home or business against water damage.
A burst washing machine hose can discharge 500 gallons of water in one hour and cause a flood of problems.
The Intelliflow's automatic operation protects against catastrophic water damage, should a water inlethose burst while the machine is not in use and unattended.
Protect your home or business with the IntelliFlow automatic washing machine shutoff valve and enjoy peace of mind.
The Watts IntelliFlow Automatic Washing Machine Shutoff Valve uses a state-of-the-art electronic control device that senses the washing machine current flow. When the washing machine is turned on, the controls detect the current flow to the washer, opening both hot and cold water inlet valves to allow water to flow to the washing machine. When the washing machine completes the full cycle the device senses the lack of current and closes the water inlet valves. These valves remain closed until the machine is used again. The IntelliFlow s automatic operation and floor mounted leak sensor protect against catastrophic water damage should a washing machine inlet hose burst while the machine is in use.
Used in conjunction with the A2C-M1 or A2C-WB-M1, the leak sensor provides the maximum level of protection. Should water be detected at the leak sensor at any time, the water flow to the washing machine hoses will be cut off immediately. This protects against catastrophic water damage regardless of the operating cycle of the washing machine.
FOR USE with 120 VOLT - FOR 220 VOLT APPLICATIONS SEE INTELLI-TIMER BELOW
The Watts A2-IntelliTimer is used in conjunction with the Watts IntelliFlow Automatic Washing Machine Shutoff Valve. It is a remote timer which allows the IntelliFlow to be used in applications where the washing machine or a combination washer/dryer is 220 VAC powered. (The IntelliFlow is not compatible with 220 VAC powered appliances). The timer initiates a two-hour cycle when the button is depressed. The A2-IntelliTimer low voltage power supply is plugged into the IntelliFlow power outlet. The remote solid-state timer is installed in a location that is convenient to the user and connected to the low voltage power supply.
Activation of the push button on the timer causes current flow, which is detected by the IntelliFlow . The IntelliFlow then actuates the solenoid valves, allowing water to flow to the washing machine. This also begins a timing sequence of two hours, which, upon its completion, deenergizes the IntelliFlow , shutting off the flow of water to the washing machine. The timing sequence can be interrupted by activating the push button a second time. A Green LED is illuminated whenever the A2- IntelliTimer is energized.
