The RD547 is a single control unit that enables the water leak  specialist to use both acoustic and tracer gas methods for the location and pinpointing of leaks. Optional accessories allow theuser to customise their tool kit to match their business needs. For example, adding a pulse wave generator enables the operator to conduct pipeline tracing on most pipe types including plastic. This modular approach provides a cost effective way for a water leak specialist to equip themselves to take on a wide scope of work.

Leaks come in all shapes and sizes and their characteristics vary  depending on the pipe material and surrounding geology. A water leak specialist requires multiple tools in their armoury to detect,locate and pinpoint leaks accurately. The greater precision of location, the less likelihood of unnecessary damage or destruction to property. With the RD547 only a single control unit is required, on to which a specialist can attach the most appropriate accessoryfor the task in hand. Three microphone types, (universal, ground  and a test rod), along with extension tips, tripods and magnet allow the user to configure the optimum listening device.Additionally, filter settings on the panel can be customized to take environmental considerations such as background noise or pipe characteristics into account. When tracer gas is a more effective option, a ground sensor for the detection of hydrogen can be attached. This combinationof accessories and filters equips the water leak specialist with flexible toolkit to tackle a broad range of leak types in a cost effective manner.
