Illustration 2-6 Set up for Probe Leakage Current
Note Each probe will have some amount of leakage current, dependant on its design. Small variations in probe leakage currents are normal from probe to probe. Other variation will result from differences in line voltage and test lead placement. Meter Procedure using Probe Adapter and Saline Bath The dale 600/600E provides a method for testing probes independently from the system. The meter utilizes a probe adapter to apply common test potential to all connector pins. The probe’s imaging area is immersed in a saline solution along with a grounding probe from the meter to complete the current path. Saline solution is a mixture of water and salt. The salt adds a free ion to the water, making it conductive. Normal saline solution is 0.9% salt or 1/2 gram salt per 1 liter of water. If saline is not available, a mixture of 1 quart water with one or more grams of table sale, mixed thoroughly, will substitute.
CAUTION To avoid probe damaged and possible electric shock, do not immerse probes into any liquid beyond the level indicated in the operators manual. Do not touch the probe, conductive liquid or any part of the unit under test while the ISO TEST switch is depressed. Follow these steps to test each probe for leakage current. 1. Turn the main unit of 8300 OFF. 2. Plug the probe to be tested to the meter’s appropriate adapter. 3. Connect the probe to be tested to the meter’s appropriate adapter.(Refer Illustration 2-6) 4. Plug the saline probe into the meter’s CHASSIS connector.(Refer Illustration 2-6)

Add the saline probe and the image area of the probe into the saline bath. 8. Have unit power ON for the first part; turn it OFF for the second half. 9. Depress the ISO TEST rocker switch and record the highest current reading. 10. Follow the test conditions described in TABLE 2-7 for every probe. 11. Keep a record of the results with other hand copies of PM data. General Procedure Follow these steps to test each probe for leaking current. 1. Turn the main unit of 8300 OFF. 2. Plug the unit into the test meter, and the meter into the tested AC wall outlet. 3. Plug the external probe into the meter’s EXTERNAL connector. 4. Set the meter’s FUNCTION switch to EXTERNAL position. 5. Connect the probe for test with the connector of the console. 6. Apply a liberal amount of gel to the probe’s lens. 7. Wrap the probe in aluminium foil, making sure there is good contact with its acoustic aperture. 8. Either suspend the probe by its cable or place it on an insulated surface. 9. Have unit power ON for the first part; turn it OFF for the second half. 10. Hold the external probe against the aluminium foil on the probe when the unit is ready to scan. 11. Depress the ISO TEST rocker switch and record when the unit is ready to scan. 12. Follow the test conditions described in the TABLE 2-7 for every probe. 13.

2-3-5 When there’s too much Leakage Current… Chassis Fails Check the ground on the power cord and plug for continuity. Ensure the ground is not broken, frayed, or intermittent. Replace any defective part. Tighten all grounds. Inspect wiring for bad crimps, poor connections, or damage. Test the wall outlet and verify if it is grounded. Notify the user or owner to correct any deviations. Check the other outlets to see if they could be used instead.
Note No outlet tester can detect the condition where the white neutral wire and the green grounding wire are reversed. If later tests indicate high leakage currents, this should be suspected as a possible cause and the outlet wiring should be visually inspected. Probe Failure Replace the probe and try again.
