The Draper 23708 Expert 12V LCD Brake Fluid Tester is a must - have tool for automotive safety and maintenance. It accurately measures both the water content and boiling point of brake fluid, crucial for ensuring your vehicle's braking system is in top - notch condition. This tester is compatible with popular brake fluid types like Dot 3, Dot 4, and Dot 5.1. Moreover, when paired with a thermocouple, it can measure the temperature of other fluids too. Powered by the vehicle's 12V battery, you won't need to worry about extra charging or carrying additional batteries. It features a bright, illuminated LCD display with a clear digital readout, making it easy to read the measurements. The built - in temperature protection ensures the device's safety and longevity. Included in the package are a syringe, a flexible tube, and a plastic beaker, all neatly stored in a sturdy plastic case for convenient storage and transportation.
Using the Draper 23708 brake fluid tester is easy. First, make sure your vehicle is turned off. Open the plastic case and take out the syringe, flexible tube, and plastic beaker. Use the syringe to draw some brake fluid from your vehicle's brake fluid reservoir and transfer it to the plastic beaker. Connect the tester to your vehicle's 12V battery. Then, insert the tester's probe into the brake fluid in the beaker. Wait for the illuminated LCD display to show the water content and boiling point readings. If you want to measure the temperature of other fluids, attach a thermocouple to the tester and follow a similar process. When using the tester, avoid touching the probe when it's in use to prevent burns due to the high temperatures. Also, make sure the brake fluid doesn't spill on the tester or your vehicle. After each use, clean the syringe, tube, and beaker with a suitable cleaning solution. Store the tester and its accessories back in the sturdy plastic case in a cool, dry place to keep them in good condition.
