Leak - The LED flashes constantly, one second on, one second off. This pattern

repeats itself as long as the leak is present.

Test the System

If the LD300 is already connected to a BMS or NMS, notify monitoring personnel

before you begin testing the system.

To verify the LD300’s functionality, test three points within the length of sensing

cable - one at the beginning, one in the middle of the length, and another near

the end of the length of cable.

There are a variety of ways to simulate a leak.

• Pour a small puddle of water on the cable while it rests on the floor.

• Dunk the cable in a cup of water.

• Wet a paper towel or rag and wrap it loosely around the cable. This is

popular if the cable is used in pipe applications. Be careful to wrap the wet

cloth loosely around the cable. Do not put pressure on the cable.

IMPORTANT - To avoid inaccurate readings, do not grip the cable with your

hand.

Remove all simulated leak sources and return the system to its normal operating

state.

To test the cable fault alarm, remove the end-of-line terminator (EOL) from

the end of the sensing cable. This will cause a cable break, which should be

reported appropriately by the LD300. Once the cable break alarm is verified,

reapply the EOL and ensure the system returns to its normal operating state.
