The Gutermann AquaScope 550 Water Leak Detector is the world’s first and only acoustic leak detector with “frequency shift” to help locate low frequency leaks in PVC and large diameter pipes. In addition, the AquaScope 550 has impressive amplification capabilities. That’s why the professional leak hunter will find even tricky leaks that cannot be detected with other equipment. Along with a host of other advanced features, this should be the acoustic microphone of choice for the demanding leak operator.
Powerful and smart – hear the inaudible noise:
The unique “Frequency Shift” feature makes the previously inaudible audible: It removes the normally inaudible low-frequency noise (below 30 Hz) common in plastic pipes or leaks from large diameter pipes. a higher, easily audible frequency band. Manual filters are user programmable in 40Hz blocks. A large graphic display transforms crystal digital sound into a visual frequency spectrum that shows a clear peak of the leak, helping the advanced technician easily identify the most difficult leaks.
Simple to use and versatile for all occasions:
With only 2 buttons/dials on the controller and 3 preset filter ranges, the AQUASCOPE 550 is very quick and easy to use. The amplifier can also be activated and deactivated with a trigger button directly on the microphone, leaving the other hand free to carry other tools. Twin headphone sockets allow a second operator to listen. The “Minimum Level Profiling” function allows the operator to record leak values independent of passing traffic and other ambient noises. The AQUASCOPE 550 leak detector locks to the lowest recorded noise on each borehole. The last eight readings are displayed as a bar graph showing the operator moving away from or approaching the leak.
Built for frequent use and long life:
The AQUASCOPE 550 water leak detector has an ergonomic design and a very robust yet lightweight body specially designed for utilities that face daily challenges such as leak detection in plastic and large diameter pipes. The microphones are made of sturdy, high-quality stainless steel and rubber for comfort and stability. AQUASCOPE 550 is extremely reliable and requires virtually no maintenance, making it an extremely cost-effective product over its expected lifetime. GUTERMANN provides a 2-year factory warranty as with all other GUTERMANN products.

How to Detect Water Loss Leak
Gutermann brand Aquascope 550 model acoustic listening microphone is the world’s first frequency pass leak detection device. In the field, this feature assists the operator in easy detection of low-noise leaks, including plastic pipes, by being picked up by the amplifier. Moreover; The device is both simple and long-lasting with its analog structure. In this way, it is beneficial for the operator to start using and detecting leaks in a very short time without the need for technical or training. No work is left unfinished, thanks to field-replaceable long-life rechargeable batteries. The aviator stereo headphones filter outside noise and concentrate it on the leak sound. Easy on the eyes and easy to use keypad and menu makes searching for leaks enjoyable. Contrary to the devices that have become more complex with the new technology, the analog structure is gaining the appreciation of everyone.
The “spot detection” method is to listen sensitively on the pipe with an “acoustic listening microphone”. The acoustic listening method is applied in the pinpoint detection of water leaks where the correlation technique cannot be applied or cannot be detected by this technique. In this method, the point(s) with the highest sound level is determined by listening for noise at certain distance intervals on the line with a sensitive acoustic microphone that is sensitive to sound. This point(s) is the point(s) where the water leak is present.
In order for the above-mentioned water leak detection works to be carried out in the most accurate and fast way, the condition that the water leak detection devices to be used must be of high quality and sensitivity.
