~ What Equipment Is Needed
For Leakage Detection?
Two of the most important require-
ments, for a successful CLI program, are
having the right equipment and know-
ing how to use the equipment correctly.
Throughout this section, we will discuss
the features and functions of each piece
of equipment and briefly discuss the
most important operating procedures
needed for leakage detection.
The primary equipment needed for
successful leakage detection includes
the following:
• Leakage Detection Meters (CLI-
1450 and CLI-1750)
• Vehicle-Mount-Antenna –
Monopole VMA-3
• Dipole Antenna – HD-1
• Adjustable 10-foot Pole – PL-1
(optional for calibrated leaks and
government leakage tests)
• Tagger — LT1000 (optional for
signal detection sensitivity and
overbuild situations)
• Signal Transmitter LST-1700
(optional for home-wire-testing,
used with CLI-1750 only)
• Docking Station – DS-1 (optional
for patrol vehicles)

~ Leakage Detection Meters
(CLI-1450 and CLI-1750)
There are two types of leakage detec-
tion meters available through ACTER-
NA; these models include the CLI-1450
and CLI-1750. Both leakage detection
meters have many features in com-
mon. The primary difference between
both models, for leakage detection, is
the CLI-1750 can be used as part of the
Home-Wiring-Test-Kit (HWTK).
In the text below, a combined model
number (e.g. CLI-1450/CLI-1750) will
represent similarities between mod-
els.
For the purpose of this section,
we will only discuss meter functions
that are needed to measure leakage.
Please refer to the operation manual
for each model regarding specific
information or instrument capabilities
not discussed in this guide.
Features of the CLI-1450/CLI-1750
Include:
• Each meter can be hand-held for
convenience.
• Measurement Mode assists the
technician with locating leakage
sources up to 40-60 feet away.
