ELECTRONIC LEAK DETECTOR
ALWAYS CONNECT CABLES PRIOR TO POWERING ON THE INSTRUMENT
1. LEAK DETECTOR FUNCTION
The Tinker & Rasor Model ELD Leak Detector is an all-purpose electrical inspection
instrument that maintains a given inspection voltage despite the electrical load on the
circuit. It is recommended for use on non-conductive waterproof membranes as well as
on flat surfaces when such surfaces are coated with a highly electrical resistance
material, and when the surface beneath the coating is electrically conductive. The Model
ELD works equally well on damp or dry surfaces and is especially desirable where humid
conditions prevail.
The purpose of this instrument manual is to inform the user on the operation of this
instrument and is not meant as an instruction guide to leak detection in general. It is
recommended that only knowledgeable and trained operators use this equipment. We
suggest ASTM International (www.ASTM.org) for this type of training.
2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR UNPACKING & INSPECTION
1) Open the shipping carton and make note of the various accessories.
Includes:
NOTE: Additional accessories may ship in separate packaging.
2) INSPECTION should be made upon receipt. If damage has occurred during
shipment, file a claim with the carrier immediately.
3) If it is necessary to contact your supplier or the manufacturer concerning
damaged or missing items, be sure to include the serial number, purchase
order number, and invoice number of the instrument in question.

Summary of Contents for Tinker & Rasor ELD

  • Page 1 The Model ELD works equally well on damp or dry surfaces and is especially desirable where humid conditions prevail.
  • Page 2 Tinker & Rasor leak detectors, APS & ELD, are designed to generate between 800 to 35,000 volts, pulsating DC. While these voltages are high, the energy emitted is well within US, OSHA guidelines.
  • Page 3 If it isn’t raining, but the coating surface is wet, Tinker & Rasor ELD Detector is designed to minimize the effects of damp or wet coatings. In extreme cases, “ghost” leaks might be witnessed, should a continual path of water reach a leak.
  • Page 4: Product Instructions

    The LCD of the voltmeter measures and displays the output voltage of the leak detector. This display gives the user the ability to tune the ELD to a specific voltage within the 800v – 8,000v Low range and the 3,500v – 35,000v High range. Voltages increment in 100v steps.
  • Page 5: Accuracy & Calibration

    ELD and will not show accurate results. 5. ACCURACY & CALIBRATION The Model ELD voltmeter is accurate to +/- 5% of the output voltage, as shown on the LCD on the instrument panel. It is recommended that the Model ELD follow an annual calibration cycle to ensure the instrument is in good working order and that the LCD of the integration voltmeter is accurate.
  • Page 6: Charging The Battery

    NOTE: Do not use the Model ELD while the battery is being charged. Significant damage can occur to the battery and charger. The Green Power LED on the main panel of the ELD will blink when the battery is low. This indicates the battery needs charging.
  • Page 7 SECTION OF THE WAND ASSEMBLY ARE FULLY TWISTED TOGETHER. 10. FACTORY REPAIRS/ CALIBRATION SERVICE Model ELD’s returned to the factory for repairs should be sent TRANSPORTATION PREPAID. In most cases the detector can be repaired and returned the same day it is received at the factory.

  • Page 9: Operational Check

    NSTRUCTIONS OPERATIONAL CHECK Prior to use, the Model ELD Leak Detector should be given an operational check to ensure it is working properly. The Operational Check ensures that the audible and visual alerts are working properly and the instrument has voltage output. The Operational Check is not a calibration check and should not replace the recommendation of annual service.
