Introduction

The SDT 205 is a professional tool for automotive pipeline leak detection. Diagnostic Leak Detectors can quickly locate hard-to-find leaks in any sealed system using a visual smoke system, such as EVAP systems, air intake systems, exhaust systems, air and water leaks, pressurized air coolers, turbochargers, pipes, fittings, hoses and many other components. It helps technicians resolve issues quickly and at once, reducing the cost of repeat vehicle returns, dramatically reducing diagnostic time and improving customer service.

Features

  1. Small and portable, sized to fit in a toolbox.
  2. Built-in air compressor, ready for diagnosis and maintenance at any time.
  3. Pressure display: leaks can be found by maintaining a certain pressure value.
  4. Compact, lightweight design

Operation steps

  • Open the Engine cover and hook the detector to the front cover of the engine.
  • Open the access port of the system to be tested, and seal it with plugging the standard tapered adapter. If the tested system has multiple open accesses, please block them with corresponding rubber plugs.
  • Connect to a standard tapered adaptor with a tapered quick coupling on the smoke exit pipe of the tested device.
  • Connect the detector with a DC12V battery: red clamp with positive terminal, black clamp with negative terminal. Do not connect in the opposite way.
  • After the power supply is correctly connected, the equipped air pump will start to work and output smoke.
  • If there is no leakage in the tested system, the pressure gauge reading can reach more than 15PSI. But if the reading is low and fluctuates continuously, there is a leak.
  • Turn on the power switch of the detector, the detector will output smoke at speed of 6L/min to the inside of the tested system. Soon the pipe will be filled with large amount of smoke. The leak point will leak smoke outward. In order to improve the detection effect, a bright light can be used.
  • After finishing the detection, please put away the cables, smoke duct pipeline, and related accessories.

Maintenance

Smoke and oil can oxidize and deteriorate under long-time exposure to high temperatures. It will affect the lifespan of the smoke generator, so please change the test oil regularly for better maintenance.

  • Before adding new test oil, pour out the remaining test oil in the detector device.
  • If there are drops on the smoke output, replace the test oil. Note: Baby oil and massage mineral oil can be used as test oil (be sure to confirm before using the formula can not contain water).
  • Please use the equipped oil bottle filled with fresh oil for refilling.
