Product Description
Audible and visual warning
- LEADER Volt will give the early warning without the need of contact with a power source
3 sensitivity modes:
- High sensitivity: For inspection from great distance
- Low sensitivity: Aids in detecting the source
- Front focused mode: Makes the unit unidirectional (and reduces the influence of high voltage wires overhead)
Typical uses:
Urban Search & Rescue:
- Detection of unknown sources of unshielded and potentially hazardous AC voltages.
Fire:
- During, and after fires, during overhaul and investigations.
Vehicular Extrication:
- Quick check of site and vehicle for potential exposure to AC voltage. Verification and monitoring of power disconnect.
Confined Space Rescue:
- To verify power shut-off and proper lockout at the entry site of machinery and equipment posing hazard’s through accidental activation.
Disaster Operations:
- After earthquakes, wind and ice storms or floods, to identify energized wires on roads or in structures whithin collapsed buildings and flooded sites. Quick check of extent of power outage.
Trench Rescue:
- Locate potential sources of electrical shock during rescue operations.
