Smoke Leak Testing With Separate EVAP and Standard Pressure Modes
The SDT208 runs from a 12 V or 24 V vehicle battery and uses its built-in pump, so no compressor is needed. Check pressure and airflow in Air Mode, then switch to Smoke Mode to find the leak path; choose EVAP or Standard Mode only within the pressure the vehicle procedure permits.
- EVAP <10 psi / standaard 35 psi
- 12 V / 24 V voeding
- Ingebouwde luchtpomp
- Rook in ongeveer 5 s
- Debietmeter + manometer
Key Features
-
Twee drukmodi
EVAP Mode stays below 10 psi to help protect EVAP lines; Standard Mode reaches up to 35 psi for systems whose procedure allows it.
-
Kleine EVAP-lekken
EVAP Mode supports checks for leaks down to about 0.5 mm, used with EVAP tools that match the vehicle test port.
-
Terugkoppeling van druk en debiet
The pressure gauge and airflow meter show changes that point to a leak, and the flow control valve sets the airflow into the test line.
-
Luchtmodus en rookmodus
Use Air Mode for pressure monitoring and Smoke Mode for visual leak location.
-
Brede systeemdekking
EVAP, intake, throttle-related and vacuum lines, exhaust, crankcase, fuel-tank sealing areas, line fittings and selected low-pressure turbo and intercooler paths.
-
Transparant voorpaneel
Oil level gauge, airflow meter, pressure gauge, power indicator and alarm indicator in one view.
-
Temperatuurbeveiliging
Power shuts off above 75°C, and the unit operates down to -20°C.

How to Use
- Voeg testolie toeFill 10–15 mL of baby oil or liquid paraffin; do not overfill.
- Open de luchtdebietregelaarGently turn the knob to open the regulator valve.
- Sluit de testleiding aanDisconnect the line to be tested and fit the hose or adapter that matches the test port.
- InschakelenConnect to a 12 V or 24 V DC battery and turn on the power switch.
- Selecteer de modusChoose Standard or EVAP Mode for the pressure range, then Air Mode for pressure and airflow or Smoke Mode for leak location.
- Zoek het lekWatch smoke, pressure and airflow; a headlamp helps reveal small escape points.
- Repareer en test opnieuwConfirm the escape path against the system layout, repair it and repeat the same test.

Good to Know
Let op
- Testolie is niet inbegrepen.
- Never use Standard Mode on a low-pressure EVAP task, and do not introduce smoke or pressure where the service procedure does not permit it.
- The SDT208 cannot directly pressure-test a high-pressure automotive A/C system.
- Do not run continuously for more than 8 minutes, and do not refill oil while it is running.
- The round metal housing gets hot during use; avoid touching it.
Onderhoud
- Refill only when the smoke becomes thin, and drain the remaining oil before adding fresh oil.
- Let the unit cool before restarting after overheat protection trips.
FAQ
How do I read the pressure gauge and flow meter?
If pressure rises and stabilizes, the line may have no obvious leak. If pressure keeps falling, the line may have a leak that needs inspection.
Kan rook helpen bij een A/C-leiding?
Only indirectly. Isolate and pressurize the line section per the service procedure, then apply smoke nearby and watch whether escaping air disturbs it.
What if the smoke is thin or there is none?
Check the 10–15 mL oil level, power connection, open regulator and selected mode. Replace old oil with fresh oil, and let the unit cool if it has overheated.
