The XRS 9012 – how it works
The response thresholds of the measuring device can be adjusted to suit any conditions...
Set the level of sensitivity you require at the press of a button. This is a new way of working – a safer and more efficient way. First it means that even large areas can be tested quickly with no loss of responsiveness. As soon as a signal is received you can adjust the thresholds to fade out interference and obtain the precise location of the leak.
Another benefit is being able to reduce the sensitivity. Large leaks in small spaces no longer require full amplitude. For clearly defined location of large leaks you can simply reduce the sensitivity to a minimum. You can set the zero point at any time at the press of a button. This function is seldom needed however because the device has automatic zero point setting. The signal also dies away very quickly to the zero value.

In the redesign we focused a lot of attention on safety and comfort. The leak detector is designed to be carried as close to the body as possible. It comes with a carrying strap leaving you with both hands free. A practical detail which means added safety. The XRS 9012 is primarily used for locating leaks and not for measuring gas concentrations.
However, if it is possible to carry out a rough location by measuring at several measuring points, you can do so fast and simply by increasing the sensitivity threshold. Helpful practical feature: the MAX function detects the maximum concentration at the measuring point each time you press the button. That means you can make a direct comparison of gas concentrations at different points.
The XRS 9012 has an automatic battery charging function. If the battery runs down, 5 to 10 minutes charging time are usually sufficient to be able to complete your current measuring task. You can also charge the batteries using your vehicle’s cigarette lighter.
