AUTOOL SDT205 Automotive Smoke Machine Leak Detector Features
- Fast smoke output: smoke output within ten seconds, greatly improving your efficiency in the test.
- Compact and portable design: Most smoke leak detectors are bulky and hard to transport, but AUTOOL designed this compact, lightweight, and portable detector to solve the problem. With a handle, cone adapter, and airbag adapter, it fits most air inlets and is an essential tool.
- Built-in Air Pump: Customers do not need to purchase additional air pumps, we use high-quality materials, after many tests, please rest assured to use. You can save more time and money
- Air Mode & Smoke Mode: Built-in air pump and smoke generator, so it does not rely on an additional air machine, perfect for Mobile Automotive Repair! The device produces smoke within 10 seconds, dramatically reducing diagnostic time.Smoke output value: 6L/min.
- External Pressure Gauge: You can observe the barometer to more accurately determine whether the car pipeline is leaking. If the barometer index keeps increasing, there is no problem with your car’s pipeline. A decreasing barometer index indicates a pipeline leak in your car that requires repair, as shown by the barometer test.Leakage is faster and more accurate
- Overheat and anti-freeze protection: The latest intelligent protection devices equip the Autool SDT205 Smoke Detector Machine. When the temperature exceeds 75℃ the protection device will only activate and shut down the power supply to protect the operator and the equipment. Not only is it protected against high temperatures, but it is also suitable for low-temperature operation.
- Wide Range of Applications: The AUTOOL SDT205 Smoke Leak Detector is suitable for detecting leaks in automobiles, motorcycles, snowmobiles, ATVs, ATVs, light trucks, and speed boats, suitable for all models(only for 12v DC).
How To Use The AUTOOL SDT205 Automotive Smoke Machine Leak Detector
Step 1: Fill 10-15ml baby oil into the detector for the first time. Open the engine cover, and hang the detector in the cover.
Step 2: Disconnect the pipe that needs to be connected to the detector.
Step 3: Connect the detector with the DC12V battery, turn on the power switch, and the detector starts to work.
Step 4: In about 30 seconds, the pipe will be filled with smoke. Check the leak points. Please use a headlamp if necessary.
What testing oil should be added into AUTOOL smoke leak detectors?
If you can’t find a professional test oil, you can buy liquid paraffin or baby oil at your local store as test oil.
How much testing oil should be added into the auto smoke leak detector?
It’s suggested to add 10-20ml testing oil for the first trial. Please drain some testing oil out if you add too much accidentally. You can reuse the extra next time.
Can smoke leak detectors detect auto A/C system?
How to use a smoke leak detector to perform a segmental auxiliary test on the air conditioning pipeline?
First, pressurize the air-conditioning pipeline, then spray smoke and observe if the airflow blows it. If there is, it means that the location is a leak point, you can repair later.
Can smoke leak detectors detect EVAP system?
AUTOOL smoke leak detectors can test leaks in the EVAP system. The package is equipped with professional fuel EVAP testing tools, you can choose proper tools to test.
What’s the voltage of smoke leak detectors?
All AUTOOL smoke leak detectors adopt 12V car battery power, which is safe to operate and easy to get power. You can use this device safely without worrying about security issues.
