Redline unveils SmokePro
Redline Detection has introduced the "Smoke Pro(R)," a diagnostic leak detector(TM) which enables technicians to easily pinpoint leaks in vacuum, exhaust, fuel vapour recovery (EVAP) and oil systems. "Auto technicians have historically spent hours locating leaks. When a leak was found, the technicians were unable to confirm that the repair had completely solved the car's problem," a company spokesman explained.
"With the Smoke Pro(R), technicians can quickly determine precisely where the leaks are located, and after repairing them, test that the car's systems are successfully sealed. The savings in time and the accuracy of the work has made our first auto technician customers feel this is the most important tool in their shop."
The Smoke Pro(R) functions by puffing smoke into one of the car's sealed systems, producing tell-tale wisps of smoke pinpointing the location of the leak. After the leak is repaired, the technician uses the Smoke Pro(R)'s pressure gauge to perform a decay test to confirm that the system holds pressure, ensuring that the system is properly sealed.
