Easy and quick to apply
- Suitable for all standard radiator plug-type necks and expansion tanks
- No time-consuming assembly of units
- Secure diagnosis within a few minutes, without need to remove any parts
- Ideal for performing routine checks and customer service tasks
- Ideal for engine checks in the used car trade
The smallest leaks and those leaks that only occur at high combustion pressures (over 30 bar) and high stresses are easy to find
- Leaks that only occur intermittently at hotter temperatures can still be identified at a later date
- Optimum supplement to a pressure test (only max. approx. 1 bar)
Liquid used is safe, free from acid and non-flammable
- Easily disposed of
- Environmentally sound
Detailed information can be found in the operating instructions.
Important: When using the CO2 leakage tester, always ensure that no coolant is drawn in.
A diesel engine operates under light load with high excess air and the combustion gas contains a high proportion of unconsumed air. Therefore, place the diesel engine under as high load as possible by means of a test drive or repeatedly revving prior to performing a CO2 leakage test.
- After the engine has overheated
- When there is a suspected leak if a pressure test (1 bar) does not produce a conclusive result
- When there is a suspected hairline crack in the cylinder head and engine block or faulty cylinder head gasket
Insert the CO2 leakage tester into the radiator or expansion tank opening and inspect the air buffer of the cooling system for increased CO2 content (= combustion gas). In the middle chamber of the CO2 leakage tester, a change in colour of the blue liquid to "green" and then to more of a "yellow" indicates a leak between the combustion chamber and cooling system. The leakage tester can be used on warm engines or for routine checks on cold engines. The test liquid should be changed after each use.
