Design and Function The pressure leak detector DLR-P monitors both walls of the double- walled system for leaks. The monitoring pressure during operation is higher than any pressure on the inner or outer wall, so that leaks will be indicated by a pressure drop. Air is used as leak detection medium.
With sufficient pressure resistance of the interstitial space, the over- pressure valve can be omitted if so agreed between the manufacturer of the pipe/fitting and SGB. Dry filter A dry filter is needed to dry the incoming ambient air to the point where condensation does not occur in the interstitial space.

Design and Function 4.6.2 Function "Turn off audible alarm signal" Shortly press "mute" button once, audible signal turns off, the red LED blinks. Pressing the button again will turn the audible signal on. This function is not available during normal operating conditions and malfunctions.
Page 19
Design and Function 4.6.5 Acknowledgement of the “Dry filter notification” (only if filter check FC provided) Briefly press the button “Acknowledge dry filter alarm” to shut off the audible signal. The visual signal (alternate flashing of the red and yel- low LEDs) continues.
Installation 5. Installing the System Basic Instructions o Prior to commencing work, the documentation must be read and un- derstood. In case of ambiguities, please refer to the manufacturer. o The safety instructions in this documentation must be adhered to. o Only qualified service companies may be used for installation o Comply with relevant regulations for prevention of accidents.

Commissioning 6. Commissioning (1) Only perform commissioning once the steps in section 5 "Mount- ing" have been fulfilled. (2) If a leak detector is commissioned on a pipe (fitting) that is al- ready in operation, special protective measures must be taken (e.g.
Page 31
Commissioning (8) After the operating pressure of the leak detector has been reached (pump in leak detector shuts off), turn three-way valve 20 180°, switch off the pump and remove it. (9) Turn three-way valve 21 180° and remove the measuring gauge. (10) Perform a functional check according to section 7.3.
Functional Check and Maintenance 7. Functional Check and Maintenance General (1) If the leak detection system has been properly installed and is free of leaks, trouble-free operation can be assumed. (2) Frequent switching on or continuous running of the pump indi- cates leaks, which should be corrected within a reasonable time.
Page 33
Functional Check and Maintenance 7.3.1 Test scope Two persons may be required to perform a functional check, depend- ing on the type of pipeline and how it is laid. (1) Coordinate the work to be performed with those responsible for operation on site.
Page 34
Functional Check and Maintenance 7.3.3 Testing the switching values (1) Attach measuring gauge to connection on three-way valve 21 and turn valve 180°. (2) For pipelines in accordance with 5.8.1 and 5.8.2: Close the shut-off valves on the manifold except for the interstitial space on which the test is being performed.
Page 35
(1) The system tightness requirement is defined in section 6.1. Determine the test time for each interstitial space (and/or the en- tire monitored system) connected (calculate or use test reports prepared by SGB GmbH). (2) Attach measuring gauge to connection on three-way valve 21 and turn valve 180°.
Alarm (Malfunction) 8. Alarm (Malfunction) Alarm (1) The red indicator light lights up, the audible signal sounds. (2) Turn the audible signal off. Malfunction (1) In case of a malfunction, only the red signal lamp will light up (yellow is off), and at the same time the audible signal cannot be acknowledged.

Disassembly and Disposal 11. Disassembly and Disposal 11.1 Disassembly Prior to and during works, make sure the unit is free of gas and the breathing air contains sufficient oxygen levels Seal any openings gas-tight through which an explosion atmosphere can carry over. Avoid using spark-producing tools (saws, parting grinders, etc.) for disassembly whenever possible.
