Page 17: Installation
Installation 1.6.1 Unpacking Unpack the HLD5000 immediately after delivery, even if it is to be installed later on. Examine the shipping container for any external damage. Completely remove the packaging materials. Notice Retain the shipping container and the packaging materials in the event of complaints about damage. -
Page 18: Rs232 Interface
1.6.5 RS232 Interface The HLD5000 is equipped with a RS232 interface which is located on the rear of the main unit under the mains connection (Fig. 1-2). This interface is of the DCE type (Data Communications Equipment) and allows the connection of a PC for monitoring and data logging. -
Page 19: Use Of The Flexible Sniffer Tip
1.6.6.2 Use of the flexible sniffer tip In addition to the rigid sniffer tip included with the HLD5000, also a 400 mm long flexible tip (Cat. No. 511-024) may be used. By correspondingly bending the flexible tip, areas which are hard to access can be reached. - Page 20 If, even so, liquid has been sucked into the sensor system, let the HLD5000 run for about 10 minutes (not in the standby mode) to pump out the liquid from the sensor system via the supply pump in the main unit.

Page 21: Principle Of Operation
Infrared light from a corresponding source is made to pass through a cell through which also the gas taken in by the HLD5000 flows. This light is filtered so that only light having a specific wavelength is allowed to pass on to an infrared light detector. -

Page 45: Cleaning The Opening Of The Calibrated Leak
6.2.3 Cleaning The housing of the HLD5000 is made of plastic. Therefore to clean the housing use cleaning only agents which are recommended to clean plastic surfaces (for example mild household cleaning agents). Do not use any solvents which attack plastic materials. - Page 46 Switch off the HLD5000 on and run a new calibration after about 5 minutes. A residual amount of refrigerant might be left under pressure (more than 5 bar) in the canister of the empty leak standard.
