NOTE
Make a leakage test after any repair or service of climate systems.
SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT
The unit features sensitivity adjustment and can be adjusted during the course of detecting.
Press the button (▲ Sensitivity) causes an increase of sensitivity.
Press the button (▼ Sensitivity) causes an decreases of sensitivity. It does not mean, when to select,
the higher the flexibility is adjusted, the better the unit will work, because if the air is not fresh,
selecting higher flexibility will cause an improper alarm.
LEAK ALARM
When the leaked gas is detected, the buzzer will respond loudly according to the leaked quantity and
the number of the leak indicators will change as well.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Switch the unit on by pressing the ON/OFF key. The leftmost indicator will light with intermittent
humming noise.
2. Verify the battery level by observing the constant power indicator.
3. Select appropriate sensitivity and the unit can be adjusted at any time, which does not intemupt
detection.
4. Press RESET key to detect 6 seconds later after the unit is switched on.
5. Please reset the unit far away from the leak source so as to ensure the unit to detect accurately
with firm reliability.
OPERATING TIPS
• Adjust the sensitivity up, only when a leak can't be found. Adjust the sensitivity down only when
resetting the unit does not allow you to "home in" on the leak.
• When the buzzer alarms for leak, if the probe is remained at the part being detected long enough,
the circuit will equalize it.
• In areas that are heavily contaminated with gas, the unit may be reset to block out ambient
concentrations of gas.
• In windy areas, even a large leak can be difficult to find. Under these conditions, it its best to
shield the potential leak area.
• Be aware that the detector may alarm if the sensing tip comes in contact with moisture and/or
solvents, therefore, avoid contact with these when leak checking.
RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE (Part 1)
Note: On Automotive A/C Systems leak test with the engine not in operation.
1. The air conditioning or refrigeration system should be charged with sufficient refrigerant to have a
gauge pressure of at least 340 kpa (50 psi) when not in operation. t temperatures below 15"C
(59"F), leaks may not be measurable, since this pressure may not be reached.
2. Take care not to contaminate the detector probe tip if the part being tested is contaminated. If the
part is particularly dirty, or condensate (moisture) is present, it should be wiped off with a dry
shop towel or blown off with shop air. No cleaners, or solvents should be used, since the detector
may be sensitive to their ingredients.
3. Visually trace the entire refrigerant system, and look for signs of air conditioning lubricant
leakage, damage, and corrosion on all lines, hose, and components. Each questionable area
should be carefully checked with the detector probe, as well as all fittings, hose to line couplings,
refrigerant controls, service ports with caps in place, brazed or welded areas, and areas around
attachment points and hold-downs on lines and components.
4. Always follow the refrigerant system around in a continuous path so that no areas of potential
leaks are missed. If a leak is found, always continue to test the remainder of the system. At each
area checked, the probe should be moved around the location, at a rate no more than 25 to 50
mm/second and no more than 5 mm from the surface, completely around the position, which
could reach the best effect and when there's a rapid buzzing noise, it means the leak point is
found.
