Cooling system tester with quick-fit connector
The cooling system can be pressurized with the hand pump (1). If the needle of the pressure gauge (2) stays in the same position, the cooling
system is in sound condition. If the pressure falls, the cooling system leaks.
Exercise caution when dealing with a hot cooling system. When the radiator cap is removed, stamp or hot water may escape,
!
0 giving rise to a risk of scald injury!
Test procedure:
. To prevent faulty results, test the tester itself before use by generating pressure with the pump and observing the pressure gauge.
The pump must hold the generated pressure.
. Remove the cap from the expansion tank or radiator.
. Attach the appropriate connector (see list of adapters for cooling systems), e.g. specific adapter K ..
or universal adapter UA.. (see illustrations overleaf).
. Connect the tester (1) to the nipple of the selected adapter (4).
. By pumping, generate a pressure of 1-1.5 bar (follow the vehicle manufacturer's instructions).
Caution: Do not overload the pressure gauge beyond the indicated limit!
. If the pressure remains unchanged, the cooling system is in sound condition.
. If the pressure falls, there is a leak in the cooling system.
. Locate and repair the leak, then carry out the test again.
Caution: Before removing the pump, operate the pressure reliefe valve (3)!
If the radiator or expansion tank cap is difficult to get at, or space is limited, we recommend using the flexible hose designated FZ 100K.
Connect the end with the quick-fit connector (5) to the connection on the adapter (K..) or universal adapter (UA..) and the other end to the
nipple (6) on the cooling system tester.
In order to test the effectiveness and sealing integrity of the original radiator cap, adapters are also available with
the designation DS.. For the assignment of the adapter designations to the vehicle manufacturer or type, refer to
the List of Adapters for Cooling Systems.

connector, pressure gauge
0-2.5 bar/0-36 psi
Maintenance:
Blow out the drain valve (3) of the tester with compressed air from time to time. If the connector is tight, lubricate the inside with a drop of oil.
Note:
To trace exhaust gases (carbon dioxide) from a leaking cylinder head gasket, we recommend using our CO
quick-fit connector or LT 200.2G (030114) with a rubber cone (see illustration overleaf).
We reserve the right to introduce technical modifications without notice.
