How it works.

DRY LEAK DETECTION

The dry roof leak detector applies a high-voltage DC current to the surface via an electrode (such as a phosphor-bronze brush) connected to the detector unit. An earth return lead from the detector unit is connected to a known earth on the building’s structure. As the operator passes the electrode brush over the roof’s non-conductive surface, any holes allow the completion of an electrical circuit triggering the detector unit’s alarm highlighting a fault's location.

WET LEAK DETECTION

The Wet Roof Pro’ uses the 'vector-mapping' or 'earth leakage' method of locating faults. The conductive properties of water (from either rainfall or a hose) provide a medium through which electrical current can flow, allowing the user to pinpoint leaks. The kit comprises two main elements; a generator unit and a detector unit. The generator unit creates an electrical field across the roof surface via a ‘boundary wire’ which is positioned around the perimeter of the test area and connected to the negative terminal on the generator unit. The positive terminal is connected to a suitable earth on the building’s structure. 

Leaks in the roof membrane allow water to penetrate to the building’s structure; creating a short circuit. The detector unit is connected to two hand-held test probes which are held in contact with the roof surface. 

By measuring the voltage differential between the test probes, the detector unit is able to direct the operator to the location of the leak.
