Description

DC12V Portable Smoke Leak Detector

Brief Overview

This DC12V smoke leak detector is engineered for quick, reliable identification of leaks in closed-circuit automotive systems—vacuum lines, exhaust systems, and air intake pathways. The unit delivers visible smoke tracer through the system, making even hairline leaks immediately apparent. Detachable cables and hoses enable field repairs without sending units back to the shop. Pair this with replacement smoke fluid to maintain continuous diagnostic capability across your service bays.

Key Features

  • Microprocessor-controlled operation with automatic 5-minute idle shut-off to minimize wear and power drain
  • Four rubber cone adapters included to match common connection points (varying diameters for different system sizes)
  • Detachable hoses and cables for field serviceability and reduced maintenance downtime
  • Battery-powered DC12V operation via heavy-duty alligator clamp leads—no shop power dependency
  • Gauge-equipped front panel for pressure monitoring during diagnostic cycles
  • Air flow control knob for precise smoke injection rate adjustment
  • Lightweight, portable metal housing with carry handle for shop-to-vehicle mobility
  • Runs on standard oil (200ml supplied); additional fluid readily available for bulk orders

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High-margin diagnostic tool: Leak detection is a recurring service upsell in any shop performing vacuum, exhaust, or intake diagnostics
  • Fast ROI: One successful leak diagnosis justifies the investment; shops will recommend this to peers
  • Bulk stock opportunity: Consumable smoke fluid creates repeat orders; stock both the detector and fluid for customer retention
  • Durable investment: Metal construction and field-serviceable design means minimal replacement frequency and strong customer satisfaction
  • Professional appearance: Blue metal finish and labeled control panel convey quality; customers perceive added value in your diagnostics capability
  • Low technical barrier: Operators learn quickly; minimal training overhead for your sales team

Why Distributors Choose This Unit

Smoke leak detection is no longer optional in modern shops. This detector combines portability with genuine diagnostic capability—no guesswork, no customer callbacks due to missed leaks. The automatic shut-off reduces operator error and extends fluid life. Detachable components mean your customers repair damage in the field rather than losing service hours to unit returns. The included carrying case and full adapter set mean zero additional purchases required at point-of-sale.

Position this as the diagnostic edge that separates your shop from competitors.
