Foreword 2 Foreword Dear Customer, thank you for purchasing our leak meter with camera. The new leak meter with integrated camera and leakage calculation are ideal measuring instruments which help to find and document even smallest leakages (0.1 l/min corresponds to approx. 1 € p. a.) easily even in far distances.
General function description 4 General function description When gases escape from leaks in piping systems (leaking screw connections, corrosion, etc.), noises are generated in the ultrasonic range. With the leakage detector even the smallest leaks, which are inaudible to the human ear and not visible due to their size, can be located several meters away. The inaudible ultrasound is converted to audible frequencies in addition to the display emission level shown in the display.

Device components and controls Assembly with acoustic trumpet The acoustic trumpet allows acoustic amplification by bundling the sound waves and specifies the location of the leak. Due to the special construction of the integrated laser pointer is still usable. The camera is integrated on the bottom of the acoustic trumpet and is electrically connected to the preamplifier module via the jack plug.
Device components and controls Assembly with Gosseneck Due to its flexibility, the gooseneck tool is used for punctual measurements in hard-to-reach areas. Connection to the leakage device is possible via the supplied spiral cable, see Figure 10. It is no longer possible to use the camera. To remove the component, remove the connection cable by pressing the release button on both sides and pulling off the cable.

Operation Home menu The operation is largely self-explanatory and menu-driven via the touch panel. The selection of the respective menu items occur via short "tapping" with the finger or a soft round pen. Attention: Please use no pens or other objects with sharp edges! The foil can be damaged! Before the leakage search is started, the device must be configured.

Operation Home Configuration Meas.Point The measuring point is stored for each leakage in its journal data. These can be seen later in the leakage report in the software. LeakTag: will be automatically increased by one after storing a measurement. All information about the measuring point can be changed by selecting the corresponding text field or the stored measuring points can be loaded from the internal database.

Operation Overview and application description of the different sensor types Acoustic trumpet (standard tool) Focus tube The focus tube allows only very few ultrasonic waves to pass in The acoustic trumpet incident ultrasonic waves and thus the direction of the ultrasonic transducer, allowing leakages to increases the range of the device.
Most insensitive stage (very large leaks, many noises - heavy-duty application) 40 – 100 dB By default, the UY000001 is set to the Auto level and will automatically change levels (10-70 dB to 40-100 dB) depending on the leakage size (ultrasonic level).
Operation 9.3.3.1 Parameter / Meas. Point (Re-Check) Store Parameter Store Meas. Point At this point, it is again possible to check and correct the parameters „Pressure" and „Distance" and the measuring point. Changing the parameters gives new values for leakage and cost. Execution of the corrections see description chapter "configuration".
Operation 9.3.3.2 Comment Store Textfield Comment In addition to the details of the measuring point with company, building and location, it is possible to enter a comment (up to 32 characters). To do this, select the text field „Comment“ and enter the comment.
