MicroSonde VMS6-33
3(8)
High mechanical stress, high ambient temperatures or immersion into liquids
can cause leakage, fire or explosions of the batteries.
Precautions: Protect the batteries from mechanical influences and high
ambient temperatures. Do not drop or immerse batteries into liquids.
OPERATING THE DEVICE
When the battery is inserted and the battery compartment attached, the
MicroSonde will start emitting a 33 kHz signal. The location can now be detected
with a receiver that operates at the same frequency, such as the Vesala CL43.
Before use, ensure the MicroSonde is fully functional by locating the signal with a
corresponding receiver. Refer to the user manual of the receiver on pinpointing the
location of the MicroSonde.
You can attach the MicroSonde to a duct rod, cable rodder, snake rod, push or
pull rod using the female M5 thread at the end of the battery compartment.
When using the device for blowing with compressed air, always blow with battery
compartment end first. Refer to the user manual of the blowing unit and follow safe
work practices.
Use of compressed air can lead to the MicroSonde exiting the duct at great
speed.
Precaution: Always use a catcher at the end of the duct. If changing the direction
of the blowing due to the device getting stuck, remember to move the catcher to
the other end of the duct. Do not blow the MicroSonde with pressure exceeding 6
bars. Always use safety goggles, when using the VMS6-33 with compressed air.
MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
Clean with clean, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive agents or solvents for cleaning.
Take care to avoid dirt getting into the unit. Regularly inspect O-ring and replace if
damaged. If water gets into the battery compartment, allow it to dry at room
temperature.
STORAGE
Store inside storage box. Respect the temperature limits stated in the technical
data
when storing the device. Always remove the batteries from the product
during storage to avoid leakage. After a long time of storage, check the function
of the device.
