3.2 Einschalten und Aufwärmen

To power on the detector, press the EIN/AUS button. The device will enter a warm-up phase, which takes approximately 30 seconds. During this time, the display will show a warming-up message. Once warmed up, it will enter the infrared detection interface with a continuous beeping sound on standby.

3.3 Anpassen der Empfindlichkeit

Der SENS button allows you to adjust the detection sensitivity. You can cycle through High (H), Medium (M), and Low (L) levels as needed. The default sensitivity level is Medium (M).

3.4 Leak Detection and Automatic Reset

The Elitech Inframate C features an automatic reset function. This function resets the leaking level every 3 seconds, which is crucial for helping users pinpoint the exact leaking source by allowing the device to re-calibrate to the ambient air and then react to the leak as you move the probe.

3.5 Recording Peak Levels

Drücken Sie die GIPFEL button to record the current peak level of refrigerant concentration detected. Pressing it again will clear the recorded peak value.

3.6 Mute-Funktion

To mute the continuous beeping sound during standby or operation, press the MUTE Taste.

3.7 Ausschalten

Um den Detektor auszuschalten, halten Sie die EIN/AUS -Taste 2 Sekunden lang gedrückt.

4. Wichtige Überlegungen

To ensure accurate readings and prolong the life of your detector, please observe the following:

• Vermeiden Sie Verunreinigungen: Leaking areas are often covered with substances like compressor oil or dirt. It is crucial to prevent the sensor tip from coming into contact with these contaminants, as they can affect detection accuracy and sensor longevity.
• Trocken halten: Keep the sensor tip away from any moisture or other solvents to avoid false alarms and potential damage to the sensor.
• Wear Face Mask: When using the highest sensitivity setting, it is recommended to wear a face mask to avoid faulty alarms caused by exhaled breath.

6. Wartung

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your Elitech Inframate C Leak Detector:

• Sensorpflege: The infrared sensor is a critical component. Avoid exposing the sensor tip to compressor oil, dirt, moisture, or other solvents, as these can contaminate or damage it, leading to inaccurate readings or malfunction.
• Reinigung: Regularly wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the probe and sensor tip are clean before and after each use.
• Filterwechsel: The device comes with a packet of filters. Replace filters periodically or if you notice a decrease in performance or increased false alarms, especially when operating in dusty environments.
• Batteriemanagement: Use only the specified rechargeable batteries. Ensure they are properly charged before use and replaced when their performance degrades.
• Lagerung: Store the detector in its protective case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and corrosive substances.

7. Fehlerbehebung

Hier sind einige häufige Probleme und ihre möglichen Lösungen:

7.1 Device Beeps Continuously Upon Power On

Ausgabe: The device starts beeping immediately when turned on.

Lösung: This is normal behavior. The device beeps upon powering on. The alarm sound becomes more urgent when a leak is detected.

7.2 Leaks Cannot Be Detected

Ausgabe: The detector fails to identify leaks.

Lösungen:

• The product automatically calibrates. After moving away from a suspected leak point, approach it multiple times to confirm if a leak is present.
• Check if the sensor is damaged.
• Verify if the air pump has lost suction capability.
• Inspect for any blockages in the internal pipeline.

7.3 Product Alarms in Non-Leaking Environment

Ausgabe: The detector triggers an alarm even when no leak is present.

Lösungen:

• Deformation of the optical chamber can affect detection data; this is a normal occurrence.
• A loose critical optical filter might be the cause. Contact support for repair assistance if this is suspected.
• Check for routers or other electronic devices nearby that might be causing electromagnetic interference.
