Headphone sets may be used with the D-TEK Select. When the headphones are 
plugged into the detector, the audio signal will only be heard through the headset.
Only use headphone sets supplied by INFICON, PN 032-0430. 
serious hearing damage may occur if other headphone sets are 
used.
Finding Leaks
1. Place the tip of the leak-detector probe as close as possible to the site of the 
suspected leak. Try to position the probe within 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) of the possible 
leak source.
2. Slowly (approximately 1 - 2 inches (2.5 - 5 cm) per second) move the probe past 
each possible leak point.
NOTE: It is important to move the tip of the probe past the leak to get a 
correct reading. The D-TEK Select only responds to changes in 
concentration of the refrigerant from the leak. Moving the probe 
permits the instrument to respond properly to these changes.
3. When the instrument detects a leak source, its yellow LEDs will illuminate and 
it will beep rapdily.
4. When the D-TEK Select signals a leak, pull the probe away from the leak for a 
moment, then bring it back to pinpoint the location.
5. If the concentration of the refrigerant gas is high, press the sensitivity switch to 
change to the LOW sensitivity setting. The LOW sensitivity setting helps find the 
exact site when a leak is large.
6. Once you have isolated the leak source, return the sensitivity setting to HIGH 
to continue using the D-TEK Select.
7. When you are done leak checking, press the Power switch to turn the D-TEK 
Select OFF.
