how does the Camco 59023 leak detector work

It works by measuring the pressure in the tank- the higher the pressure, the fuller it is- and the gauge is calibrated accordingly. It's fairly inaccurate due to changes in temperature, but it gives a ballpark estimate on how much fuel is left. I like mine, although a scale would be more accurate.

This is a pressure gauge. liquid propane, like most gases that liquefy under pressure, does not vary its pressure according to the volume of liquid in the tank. So a full tank and a nearly empty one will show the same pressure. It will only start to significantly decline once the liquid is all gone. And at that point there can only be a few minutes at best before the tank is empty.

A cheap generic scanner just reads and displays the DTC (diagnostic trouble codes) codes and lets you clear them and turn off the Check Engine light.The CP9180 also lets you read the various power train (engine) sensors such as coolant temp, engine speed, vehicle speed, timing, etc (there are literally dozens). It also monitors emissions systems status, such as whether your EGR system has passed its self-test and is properly working. All the emissions systems must be "Ready" in order to pass the state emissions tests.The CP9180 only monitors the powertrain computer. It doesn't work with the air bag, transmission, ABS, anti-theft or other body modules that may be present in your car.

Along with camshaft sensor it controls the engine's,timing, idle, gas mileage, etc. The solenoid senses oil pressure, and on these vehicles were know to be defective sometimes, the little screens inside can come out and get down into the engine , it is wise to replace it.

It detects sudden movements (for example a collision). The camera would lock the video file it's recording in the event of an accident so that it wouldn't be over-written

In addition to the above, keep in mind that water has to pool around the cord. Not a lot, but you need a blob of water about the size of a dime crossing between contact points on the cord to set it off, so it may not detect dripping water unless it's on the floor where the water ends up.

Yes, the Innova is great for finding parasitic leaks in boats and cars. Turn everything off..... EVERYTHING and then disconnect the negative battery cable. Insert the meter in series with the neg bat terminal and the end of the cable. If there is a current leak it will show on the meter when it is set on the AMPS function. Becareful that you don't turn anything on when the meter is connected because the AMP mode is not fused. If a current reading shows on the meter start pulling fuses and disconnecting devices until the reading drops to zero therefore isolating the problem

It is a propane sensor, so what it really senses is methane, which is added to propane specifically so you can smell a leak. I don't know whether it senses CO2 or CO.

something may be on that you do not know about.to find out:diconnect the solarpanels ,disconnect the + battery terminalset the dial on your multimeeter to amp ,black lead to com and red lead to amp ,put.one lead to the batterywire that you disconnected the other to the battery post.Reading should be 0 This will help you to track the leak,if there is any

The sensor is very simply 2 contacts on a circuit board. It needs water to bridge the contacts and activate the alarm, so it will not sense moisture or dampness.

I have two of them. No leaks that I can detect. There is a negative pressure inside the barrel when the vacuum is running so even if there was a gap at the seam dust would be kept inside.

I have used it for R134A and R12. It works better than any other detector i have used over the years and it is unaffected by the wind which is a big plus. You have to be patient as it takes a few minuits to warm up. However there is still no substitute for pressure testing with compressed nitrogen to determine leak locations.

It works on detection. If the air is polluted, it will automatically turn on higher to filter it, ie..cigarette smoke, cleaning solutions, food odor, kids farts..:)

just a simple carbon warning system that works .I had a problem at work and my truck was putting me to sleep on the road ,I was nerves t that the exhaust was coming in my cab The garage was not caring to my warnings I bought this sensor to detect leaking gas ( carbon monoxide) .it worked my truck got repaired look at what you have to to stay alive buy this its worth the price too and you will sleep better knowing your safe but keep changing the batteries just in case notice the check buzzer

icould only tell you i had a hard time finding a large leak.i would tell you that the best thing you can use is dye in the system it is no mistake as to where the leak is.if you buy spendmaybe half the money.make sure it will pick up all the new freon as there are a lot of different types of freon new to the market.mostly i worked on autos and aircraft.some central air. try yellow jacket if you must have one. leak detectors are hit or miss.ok for blind spots where you cannot see dye because of obstruction. i chooseleak detecor dye using a caulking type.or just buy a cheap detector just as good. tony phila.pa. hope this helps you. icould only tell you i had a hard time finding a large leak.i would tell you that the best thing you can use is dye in the system it is no mistake as to where the leak is.if you buy spendmaybe half the money.make sure it will pick up all the new freon as there are a lot of different types of freon new to the market.mostly i worked on autos and aircraft.some central air. try yellow jacket if you must have one. leak detectors are hit or miss.ok for blind spots where you cannot see dye because of obstruction. i chooseleak detecor dye using a caulking type.or just buy a cheap detector just as... » Read More icould only tell you i had a hard time finding a large leak.i would tell you that the best thing you can use is dye in the system it is no mistake as to where the leak is.if you buy spendmaybe half the money.make sure it will pick up all the new freon as there are a lot of different types of freon new to the market.mostly i worked on autos and aircraft.some central air. try yellow jacket if you must have one. leak detectors are hit or miss.ok for blind spots where you cannot see dye because of obstruction. i chooseleak detecor dye using a caulking type.or just buy a cheap detector just as good. tony phila.pa. hope this helps you. « Show Less

It is not desiged to find "leaks" which may be from a broken pipe or some other source. However, it's purpose is to penetrate the soil to find solid things below ground level. It does that well. For instance, I have found my septic tank and pipes leading to/from my pool. If something like that is the source of the leak then at least you know where to look.

This unit comes with the ability to connect more than one sensor. I put one sensor under my washer & purchased a second for under my dryer. I have a wye connector that splits the water going to the dryer and the washer. Should one of the sensors detect water, the solenoid valve will shut off. Once it shuts off, it will prevent water flow to either the washer or the dryer. A friend of mine did not have the shutoff kit & the hose going to his dryer developed a leak. Fortunately he was home & noticed the water flowing down the stairs to his basement. The sensors work as I tested each. I hope this answers your question.

Hello Vikas, firstly you need to determine the source of the leak. It is most likely from one of the connections. Try to isolate which one. If that is the case you can easily fix it yourself by checking each one and making sure that they are tight. If it is coming from the body of the unit then you should return it because that would mean that the product is defective. The instructions aren't great. I would gladly send you a picture of the unit already connected so that you could see it more easily but I don't think there is a way of attaching a picture to my answer. Best of luck.
