The Leak Detector's circuitry is housed in a engineered grade plastic shell. The keypad layout allows for an easy and user 
friendly  operation, even when the user is wearing gloves. The monitor features a backlit LCD screen with a clear display. 

The connections to the ground microphone and headset are within easy access and can be turned on and off quickly.

The Aqua Trac™ Water Leak Detector is an electroacoustic sound listening device, the equipment registers the vibrations of 
an object or pipe where a water leak is presumed to be found, the Aqua Trac™ produces a specific frequency that can be 
found by a trained operator.

Some of the applications are locating leaks in water distribution networks and locating leaks in service and utility pipes.

•  Do not use the equipment at excessive volume, this may result in permanent hearing damage.

•  Do not drop the equipment, the circuitry and components inside of the casing can get damaged. The sensor/microphone 

is also a delicate piece of electronic equipment, do not drop it or hit it, this can cause damage to the microphone 
and internal connections and will not be covered under warranty. NEVER open the housing of the unit, this will also 
automatically void the warranty.

•  The unit leaves our facility in the original factory configuration, no need for calibration or special settings besides 

options available on the menu.

The Aqua Trac™ has all the necessary functions for the acoustic detection of water leaks in buried pipes. Through its potent 
ground microphone, the noises can be heard directly from the pipe as well as on the ground. The noise level is displayed on 
the equipment's screen in graphical form, as well as numerically. The unit identifies frequency of the audio collected which is 
then transmitted into the headset, this process is an intrinsical part of the whole system. The headphones are equipped with 
noise isolating features to allow the user to acquire the best audio possible to pinpoint the water leak location. 

The Aqua Trac™ features several specific functions for the interpretation of the results:

•  The filters can be customized to limit the bandwidth by setting high frequency and low-frequency parameters               

(Ex: 100 Hz to 1200 Hz or 101 Hz to 2500 Hz)

•  The sound level indicator represents the live audio with a graph and a numeric value on the display's screen

•  The screen also displays the Battery Life indicator
