5 Care and Service
Cleaning
Both the Tru Pointe
®
Ultra and SoundBlaster
®
can be cleaned using dish soap and a damp cloth.
Remove the batteries and close the Battery Door before cleaning. Do not allow water to enter the
unit, especially near the sensor. After cleaning, the units can be dried with a paper towel. Any
automotive vinyl cleaner will restore the units luster.
If you plan to store the unites for an extended period, remove the batteries.

Pointe

Ultra and the SoundBlaster

Press lightly on the middle of the Battery Door and slide it toward the bottom of
the instrument.
3.
Remove the old battery and replace it.

Slide the Battery Door back on the instrument, making sure it is securely attached.

Using the SoundBlaster
®
Some Tru Pointe
®
Ultra kits include Bacharach’s ultrasonic sound generator, the SoundBlaster
®
.
The SoundBlaster
®
is used to artifi cially pressurize items and detect potential leaks using a 115dB
ultrasonic tone. The Tru Pointe
®
Ultra can detect the tone as it escapes in areas that are not
under pressure.
To use the SoundBlaster
®
:
1.
Press the On/Off Button once on the SoundBlaster
®
.
2.
Place the SoundBlaster
®
inside the item to be tested.
3.
Use the Tru Pointe
®
Ultra to detect the leaked ultrasonic waves generated by the
SoundBlaster
®
using the same method as detecting a standard airborne leak.
NOTE:
Using the SoundBlaster
®
inside a symmetrical
object (i.e. a cylindrical tank) can cause standing waves,
which can result in hot and cold spots. For these situa-
tions push the ‘Mode’ button to turn the SoundBlaster
®
’s
burst mode on.
SoundBlaster
®
applications include locating roof and window leaks, air/water leaks in automobile
windshields, trunk seal leaks, truck body leaks, and tanker leaks.
