CAUTION Damage to the device due to improper storage.
  • Page 14: Installing The Leak Detector

    Mounting and commissioning The leak detector must not be installed in hazardous areas or in access chambers of underground tanks. If the case of outdoor applications, the leak detector must be mounted in a protective housing with IP 55 protection. If the leak detector is installed in a protective housing, an additional weather-proof audible alarm must be installed outside of the protective housing.

Fill the drying filter with orange drying beads.
  • Page 23: Commissioning The Device

    Operation Commissioning the device The information on the nameplate of the tank have been ac- counted for (DIN number, test pressure 0.6 bar, number of dry- ing filters). The interstitial space does not contain any leak detection fluid. The correct number of drying filters has been determined The leak detector has been installed as per chapter 6.3, page 14.
  • Page 24: Function Test

    Operation The red LED “Alarm” remains on. Immediately notify the installation company. When the problem has been fixed, you must perform a full func- tion test as per chapter 7.2, page 24. Determining the tank with the leak if several tanks are con- nected to one leak detector Close all stop cocks of the two distributors (pressure line and measurement line).
  • Page 25 Operation The pressure in the interstitial space is regenerated. The alarm signals must switch off automatically. Function test by measurement The free lateral connection of the red measurement valve is provided for connecting a pressure gauge to test the system. Connect a pressure gauge (0-1000 mbar).
  • Page 26 Operation Set the test valve (white connection) to position "Normal Opera- tion". The pressure in the interstitial space increases, but it must not exceed 570 mbar! Set the measurement valve (red connection) to position "Normal Operation". The pump must switch off immediately. Function test of the indicators Press the "Test"...
