Gmic Acoustic Leak Sounding System
Introduction
The Gmic (pronounced Gee Mike) is a highly effective ground microphone. It
consists of a lightweight portable amplifier module, a set of mono headphones, and a
combination listening probe and ground microphone.
It is an effective electronic instrument for locating and pinpointing leaks from buried
water pipes.
Both visual and audible indications of signal strength (and consequent proximity) are
provided to enable operators to quickly and accurately confirm leak positions.
The control module is battery powered and provides up to 50 hours operational use
before a recharge is required.
Although the system is rugged and shower-proof (to IP65), it contains electronic
circuitry and should handled with care. The equipment should be kept dry and clean.
Where necessary it should be cleaned with a damp cloth; abrasive materials must
not be used.
Note
: The headphones supplied with the Rmic cannot be interchanged. The
impedance of the headphones is matched to the Rmic control unit during
manufacture.
