SDT50 focuses on portable 12V smoke leak detection with built-in air pump, quick smoke output, thermal protection, wide leak coverage, and broad 12V vehicle compatibility.
Built-In Air Pump
No need to connect an external air supply. The built-in pump makes SDT50 convenient for quick testing at different locations without purchasing an extra air pump.
Quick Smoke Output
Press the smoke switch to generate a large amount of smoke quickly, helping users locate automotive leak points faster.
Lightweight And Portable
The SDT50 smoke machine leak detector weighs only 1.5kg, does not take up much storage space, and is easy to carry for mobile diagnosis.
High / Low Temperature Protection
The machine intelligently powers off when the temperature reaches 75°C, and it can still work when the temperature reaches -20°C.
Wide Leak Detection Coverage
Suitable for checking crankcase, oil seal, intercooler air, throttle valve, intake manifold, exhaust pipe, fuel tank, pipe fittings, coolant tank, and related leak points.
Wide Vehicle Coverage
Suitable for cars, motorcycles, trucks, snowmobiles, off-road vehicles, speedboats, and other vehicles that use 12V DC power.
How To Use
Use the SDT50 with a DC 12V battery, liquid paraffin or baby oil, and the included smoke hose. Before use, gently turn the knob to open the airflow regulator valve.
Add Test Oil
Fill 10-15ml baby oil or liquid paraffin into the detector before first use. Do not exceed this range.
Connect The Test Pipe
Open the engine cover, hang the detector if needed, and disconnect the pipe that needs to be connected to the detector.
Power On
Connect the detector to a DC 12V battery, gently open the airflow regulator valve, then turn on the power switch.
Locate Leaks
In about 30 seconds, the pipe will be filled with smoke. Check the leak points visually and use a headlamp if necessary.
Use Notes
- Liquid paraffin and baby oil are both acceptable testing liquids.
- Add fresh oil only when the smoke becomes thin.
- Do not add more than 15ml oil each time.
- Before filling fresh oil, pour out the remaining oil in the detector and replace detector oil regularly.
- During leak detection, keep away from smoke-sensitive parts.
- Do not run the detector continuously for more than 8 minutes.
- If the machine shuts off due to 75°C protection, let it rest before reuse.
- The round metal part may become hot; avoid burns.
