  • Page 10: Product Description

    Product description General The CG 150 generator is used to energise pipes for acoustic location. The generator is therefore also often referred to as the transmitter. Pipes that are not electrically conductive can be made to vibrate by the generator with a connected striker or stopper. The acoustic signals generated in this way can be located acoustically using a suitable system (e.g.
  • Page 11: Remote Control

    2.2.3 Remote control The remote control can be used to pause the generator (pause function). The signal strength can also be adjusted when using the striker. This is not possible when using the stopper. The remote control has the following keys: ●...
  • Page 12: Frequencies

    The following settings for the striker can be adjusted on the generator: ● Signal behaviour Generator settings are not saved when it is switched off. When the generator is switched on, it always starts with the lowest frequency. If the striker is being used, the generator starts with the lowest signal strength. 2.4.1 Frequencies The frequency measures how quickly the pulses acting on a pipe follow each other.
  • Page 13 Striker When using the striker, the generator can optionally be operated with the following signal behaviour: ● Steady signal ● Discontinuous signal Signal Signal curve Steady Discontinuous Stopper When using the stopper, the generator always emits a steady signal. 2 Product description │ 7...

    ● Press the Down key to reduce the signal strength. The signal strength display changes with each keystroke. Note: Even when no signal strength is displayed, the generator will still send pulses. 3.3.2 Signal strength of the stopper The signal strength of the stopper can be changed in steps. ● Turn the signal strength controller on the stopper clockwise to reduce the signal strength.

    Fig. 4: Striker, attached to a house service connection 1. Attach the striker to the line. a) Place the fastening chain around the pipeline. b) Hook the fastening chain onto the striker. c) Clamp the fastening chain using the star knob until the striker is adequately secured to the pipe. 2.
  • Page 17 The hydrants must meet the standards of DIN Note: The section below explains how to use the stopper on an underground hydrant with standpipe. The stopper is connected directly to above-ground hydrants. 1. Connect the standpipe with flushing adapter to the hydrant. 2. Rinse the hydrant/pipeline to remove any dirt. a) Open the shut-off valves on the hydrant and the standpipe. b) Wait until the water runs totally clear.
  • Page 18: Using The Remote Control

    Using the remote control 3.7.1 Using the remote control for the first time The remote control comes with a film strip to protect the battery, which must be removed before first use. ● Pull the battery protection strip until it comes off. 3.7.2 Pause function The pause function can be used to pause operation of the generator without switching the generator off. While paused, the generator does not send any pulses. The pause function can be used for both the striker and the stopper.

    The Pause symbol disappears from the display. 3.7.3 Setting the signal strength (striker only) Note: The remote control can only be used to adjust the signal strength for the striker, not for the stopper. The signal strength is adjusted using the remote control in the same way as on the generator itself (section 3.2). ●...
