Description
Shelly Flood S Gen4 Smart Water Leak Sensor
The Shelly Flood S Gen4 is a compact, battery-powered smart water leak sensor designed to provide early warning of leaks before they develop into costly water damage. Its low-profile housing allows it to be positioned under appliances, beside plumbing fixtures and in other tight or difficult-to-access locations where water leaks are most likely to occur.
A large-surface, triple-pad stainless-steel sensor provides fast and reliable water detection. Its high sensitivity allows the device to detect not only normal tap water, but also clean or low-conductivity water such as air-conditioning condensate, distilled water and desalinated water. The IP67-rated housing provides additional protection in areas that may be exposed to splashes, spills or high humidity.
The Shelly Flood S Gen4 can operate in either Flood Detection or Rain Detection mode, allowing it to be configured for a range of residential and commercial applications. When water is detected, the integrated buzzer provides an immediate audible warning at the installation location, while remote notifications can be delivered through the Shelly Smart Control app or a connected automation platform. Three selectable alarm profiles—Intense, Normal and Economic—allow the alert behaviour to be adjusted to suit the application and desired battery performance.
Gen4 multiprotocol connectivity provides a choice of Wi-Fi 6 or Zigbee 3.0 operation, with Bluetooth available for setup and provisioning. Matter-over-Wi-Fi support enables integration with compatible Matter ecosystems, while support for Shelly Cloud, Home Assistant, MQTT and webhooks provides flexible options for professional smart home and building automation installations.
Detected leaks can also be used to trigger automated actions, such as closing a compatible motorised water valve, switching off equipment or activating additional alarms. Supported local automation capabilities help maintain essential protection without relying entirely on an active cloud connection.
Powered by an included CR123A battery, the Shelly Flood S Gen4 offers an estimated battery life of up to approximately two years, depending on network conditions, configuration and usage. Its combination of compact construction, flexible connectivity and sensitive water detection makes it suitable for installation beneath washing machines, dishwashers, sinks, hot water systems, air conditioners, refrigerators, water filters and other leak-prone equipment.
