Wired Sensor APC NetBotz NBES0301 15ft 4.572m distance 0-15000m altitude

The APC NetBotz NBES0301 is a wired leak/fluids detection sensor designed for early detection of liquids in data centers and network closets. The sensor connects to NetBotz 250A and 700 series appliances and can monitor a spot location up to 15 ft (4.572 m) from the appliance or a sensor pod. Its compact dimensions (64 x 25 x 64 mm) and 270 g weight allow placement in confined spaces for targeted monitoring.

Advantages

The wired sensor provides reliable local leak detection within a defined 15 ft range and is compatible with both NetBotz 250A and 700 series appliances. When used with 700 series appliances and Leak Rope sensors, it supports continuous coverage along the rope length for early fluid detection. The compact form factor and straightforward wired connection simplify installation in racks, under raised floors, or near critical equipment.

Suitable for

• Monitoring a single spot near racks, PDUs, or water-bearing infrastructure up to 15 ft from a NetBotz appliance
• Integration with NetBotz 250A and 700 series appliances for environmental monitoring
• Use in data centers, server rooms, and network closets where precise local leak detection is required

Key specifications

• Model: APC NetBotz NBES0301
• Connection: Wired sensor for NetBotz 250A and 700 series
• Detection range: up to 15 ft (4.572 m) from appliance or sensor pod
• Dimensions: 64 x 25 x 64 mm
• Weight: 270 g
• Operational altitude range: 0–15,000 m

How to use

Connect the NBES0301 wired sensor to a compatible NetBotz 250A or 700 series appliance according to the appliance documentation. Position the sensor at the target spot where early fluid detection is required, ensuring the distance to the NetBotz appliance or sensor pod does not exceed 15 ft (4.572 m). For extended linear coverage, use Leak Rope sensors with NetBotz 700 series appliances. Verify sensor communication and configure alarm thresholds within the NetBotz management interface.

Recommendations

Install the sensor in locations where leaks are likely to originate (near condensate drains, under cooling units, or adjacent to plumbing). Avoid placing the sensor where routine maintenance or foot traffic may displace it, and periodically test the sensor through the NetBotz interface to ensure correct operation.
