Page 7: Description
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 Description General The new HLE 5000/500 leak locator comprehensively deals with finding leaks in pipe networks for the supply of drinking water. The equipment can of course be used on other pipe systems, provided that the liquid comes out of the pipe under pressure and that the resulting noise carries to the surface of the ground. -
Page 8: Construction
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 Construction The leak location equipment is in a splash-proof housing made of robust plastic. The few control buttons are so arranged that they can also be operated wearing gloves. The display is equipped with backlighting. That means that work is also possible under poor lighting conditions, or at night. -

Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 Locking screws Fig 3 : Base plate with locking screws Automatic battery monitoring When working with the leak detection equipment, the state of the batteries is monitored continuously. Should the battery voltage drop too far, this will be indicated by a flashing battery symbol in the top right of the display. -
Page 14: Pam
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 2.6.1 PAM W-1 The PAM W-1 is an active piezo ground microphone roads hard ground coverings. The microphone is particularly well shielded from the wind, using a bell-shaped guard. The carrying pole can be removed with a quarter turn to the left. -
Page 15: 2.6.2 Pam U
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 2.6.2 PAM U PAM U was developed primarily as a sensor rod or contact microphone, but can be used universally by exchanging the contact point for various adapters. Sensor rod variant: In this variant the PAM U is suitable for listening to valves, hydrants or even directly on a pipe. -
Page 16: Headphones
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 Take care: When removing the microphone from a valve, always pull the body of the microphone and not the cable, otherwise you may damage the cable. 3-point foot variant: By screwing in a 3-point foot, the PAM U can also be used as a ground microphone on a hard surface. -
Page 17: Practical Work
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 Practical work Now that you have got to know the HLE 5000/500 leak detector, you can start with the practical use. Headphones and microphone connection Before switching on the HLE 5000/500, connect both the headphones and the microphone. The reverse is true when switching off: Always switch the equipment off first and then remove the microphone and headphones. -

Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 Setting the headphone volume 0 – 4000 Hz Fig 8 : Opening menu after switch-on Amplification setting Volume and amplification The HLE 5000/500 is equipped with separate controls for volume and amplification. Thus, every user can make the best settings for their personal characteristics. -
Page 19: Setting The Gain
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 3.3.2 Setting the gain The amplification of the microphone signal, the gain, is set via the two soft keys, bottom right (see fig. 10). The gain is shown via a horizontal bar. On top of this bar the gain values of 1 to 8 can be seen. -

Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 chosen. Should a measurement not be successful, then a broadband setting is to be recommended, to ensure that none of the leak sound is filtered away. 3.6.1 Filter selection A (Ground microphone PAM W-1, PAM U with 3-point foot) As a standard setting, a filter from 240 Hz - 540 Hz should be used. -
Page 23: Fig 16 : Histogram Measurement
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 The individual histogram displays consist of a dual segment analysis (DSA), which show the current value and the minimum value. This DSA is shown in fig. 15. The narrow segment stands for the current value and the wide segment shows the minimum value, which is of particular significance when looking for burst pipes. -
Page 24: Long-Term Measurement (Hle 5000 Only)
Operating instructions HLE 500/5000 The histogram measurement as shown in fig. 16 shows very different current values. On the other hand the 5th DSA shows a clear maximum for the minimum values. The burst pipe is thus in the vicinity of the 5th measurement location. Additionally a small graphical symbol indicates the maximum measurement for easy recognition. -
