PQWT-L series is the newly updated and multi-functional water leak detector, it

is applied to different detecting leakage of outdoor water pipe, fire pipe,

heating system, indoor water pipe, and underground heating floor pipe. By
collecting and analyzing leakage signal, it solves the problem of pressure pipe
water leak.

The major components of the instrument include: Host Machine, Noise

Reduction headphone, Medium Sensor(for outdoor normal environment),
Large Sensor(for outdoor noisy environment), Triangular Sensor (for indoor
ground), Square Sensor (for narrow spaces such as walls and cabinets.etc),
Telescopic Pole (for connecting sensors), Sound pole (for inserting soft soil,
lawn)

Demonstration of outdoor pipeline water leak detection

Preparation:
1. Make sure if there is a leakage problem in pipes. Take the fire pipes for
example, it is necessary to check the pipeline pressure holding or decreasing
pressure of the pressure meter in the pump station.
2. Search and check any unknown water flow around the pipe well.
3. Observe if there are any land subsidence around the pipes and if there
abnormal any wetlands.
4. Use the detector to check the valve and abnormal leaking noise of the
exposed pipes. It could be mainly checked if there are any signs of the
abnormal leaking noise.
5. Use the underground metal pipe detector to find the direction of the pipes, if
the direction is unknown.

Assembling the instrument.

Step 1: Connect the strap to the host machine;
Step 2:Connect the sensors to the telescopic pole;
Step 3: Connect the noise reduction headphone to the host machine;

Instrument operation process:

【 General Detection 】 which is mainly used to check the outdoor pipeline
water leakage in large areas.
(1) Click to enter the "Outdoor", select the soil texture of "Hard" and pipe
material of "Metal" according to the detecting environment;
(2) Click "General Detection" to enter the interface.
(3) Place the sensor above the pipe, turn on the knob switch to receive sound,
listen to the volume and observe the spectrum change on the screen. After
detection of the first point, press the knob switch to turn off the sound, and
move the sensor forward to detect the next points in the same way. When the
spectrum on the instrument' screen is high and the sound in the headset is
significantly increased, the area can be identified as a suspected leakage area
and marked.

【 Locating 】 which is mainly used to locate the leak points in suspected

leakage areas.
(1) Click to enter the "Locating" mode.
(2) In the suspected leakage area, start detection from the first point, click any
position in the spectrum bar, and the signal value will be displayed on the top
of the spectrum bar. The thin bar is the instantaneous noise of the environment,
while the thick bar is the sound from the underground, we mainly observe the
thick bar signal.
(3) After the thick bar is stable, click again any position in the spectrum bar to
lock it, the signal value changes from red to black, and the detection at the first
point is completed. The same method is used to compare different points in
this area. When the detection point has the highest thick spectrum bar, and the
signal value is the largest, it can be judged as the suspected leaking point. The
detection report in the locating mode can be stored after clicking the "Export"
button and connecting to the computer.

Demonstration of indoor pipeline water leak detection

Preparation for indoor pipeline water leak detection:

1. Conduct a pipeline pressure holding testing with a manual water pressure
tester
2. If the pipeline's direction is unknown, a thermal imaging camera can be
used to determine the direction of the pipeline.

Assembling the instrument.

Step 1: Connect the strap to the host machine;
Step 2: Connect the triangular sensor to the host machine;
Step 3: Connect the noise reduction headphone to the host machine.

Instrument operation:
【General Detection】 which is mainly used to check the indoor pipeline water
leakage in large areas.
(1) Click the "Indoor" then choose the "General Detection".
(2) Turn on the knob switch to receive sound, and pay attention to the sound
volume in the headphone and observe the spectrum change on the screen.
(3) When the spectrum on the instrument 'screen is high and the sound in the
headset is significantly increased, the area can be identified as a suspected
leakage area and marked.

【 Locating 】 which is mainly used to locate the leak points in suspected

leakage areas.
(1) Click to enter the "Locating" mode.
(2) In the suspected leakage area, click any position in the spectrum bar,
(3) After the thick bar is stable, click again any position in the spectrum bar to
lock it, and the signal value is the largest, it can be judged as the suspected
leaking point.

Notice:
1. It's forbidden to put the sensor into the water, and please put the sensor
gently.
2. It's forbidden to use in flammable and explosive areas such as gasoline and
natural gas.
3. If it is for outdoor pipeline leak detection, please select the corresponding
detection parameters according to the actual environment.
4. If the instrument is not used for a long time, please charge it once a month at
least.
5. When detecting the area like soft soil or a lawn, it is better to use the sensor
to connect to the sound pole and insert it into the soil.
