Check that the power cells are installed properly. The positive
(button) end of each power cell should be inserted first (toward
the front of the instrument).
Visually check that the power cells are free of oxidation or other
residue. If needed, clean the ends of the power cells with
pencil eraser.
Open the battery door. Using the AC power adapter try
operating the detector. If the leak detector does not turn on, the
power adapter has failed.
Note:
In very few cases the power
circuit on the electronic board in the leak detector may fail giving the
same symptoms. If possible, before ordering a new power adapter,
you may want to run this test with a different power adapter to insure
the electronic board is operating. This test is performed to verify proper
operation of the AC adapter. With the battery door open, the detector
will not operate to published specifications.
If your leak detector operates on the AC power adapter, test
each individual power cell for voltage output. Do this by using
a voltmeter (DC voltage), putting a probe on each end of the
cell. You should read from 1.0 to 1.4 volts DC on each cell. If
any of the cells fail to indicate the correct voltage, replace the
complete battery set (all 3 cells).
Problem
Your leak detector is erratic, it sounds off when moving the probe,
when the tip is bumped, or when it is sitting on the desk.
Diagnostics/Remedy
This problem can be caused by the sensor leads being bent, not
allowing for proper contact with sockets, by humidity being
absorbed over a long period of not operating the leak detector, or
