Installing the Sensor (Continued)
• Carefully align the 3 leads (small wires coming out of the bottom
of the cap) on the sensor with the 3 sockets in the top of the
probe. Insert the leads into the sockets and press them together.
Note:
You must be careful not to bend the sensor leads because this
can cause erratic operation (see
Troubleshooting
.)
• Place the tip protector (with filter installed) over the sensor and
tighten snugly by turning cap in clockwise direction.
Charging the Power Cells
Because the D-TEK’s power cells are nickel/cadmium, they are not
yet charged. To charge them, connect the cord of the AC power
adapter to the power jack at the rear of the instrument, and plug the
adapter into the appropriate mains outlet. Allow 10 hours for the full
charge.
Even while the power cells are being charged,
your D-TEK Leak Detector’s power cords allow it to
operate (
see
Using Your INFICON D-TEK).
Note:
Power cells must be installed in the detector for proper operation.

yellow lamps all go off, the unit is ready to use.
