Manual for locating water entries - Edition 09.2018
♦ Battery charger
The battery charger is equipped with two connecting plugs so that
the receiver and transmitter can be charged simultaneously.
Fully charged devices can be used for an entire workday without
recharging.
Both devices must then be charged using the supplied battery
charger (charging time: about 12 hours from empty battery).
While in use, a green LED will flash on both devices to indicate
that the rechargeable batteries are almost drained and need to
be recharged. Longer charging times are not crucial.
The battery charger is equipped with two connecting plugs for
transmitter and receiver. The charger is equipped with two red
LEDs, one for the transmitter and one for the receiver; they will
light up when charging.
6.1.2 Procedure for locating water entries
In order to pinpoint the exact location of water ingress one device
in the vehicle interior and the other outside the vehicle, both in
close proximity to the point where water was seen. During this
procedure, the doors and windows must be completely closed. In
addition, device accuracy can be improved by fitting the unidir‐
ectional attachment to the receiver.
If this is not possible due to space reasons, a second mechanic
can be called to assist where one holds the transmitter and the
other the receiver. The person inside the vehicle traces the same
route of the connection being checked as the person on the out‐
side, until the point of water entry can be found.
Note
Mounting of the transmitter or receiver on the inside or outside of
the vehicle will depend on the type of connection and accessibility
of each area to be tested.
WARNING
It is possible that the ultrasonic device identifies a leaky area
while this is not the cause of the water entry.
