Diagnostic Equipment
We've included in this catalog for the first time a line of field test equipment (section 17) that we use when analyzing cooling system performance. Most of the items are available through industrial hardware distributors and rarely sold outside the trade. They are not for everyone but it seems every time we use these items at car shows to analyze an overheating problem someone tries to buy them from us.
We particularly like the air-flow meter better known as an anemometer since overheating occurs at low speed or idle and can be directly related to air-flow. The other item we always carry with us to car shows is a digital readout temperature gun. Both items are handy instruments for the enthusiasts and simply a must for the pros.
Digital Thermo-Anemometer
If your car runs cool at 30 MPH plus, but heats up at idle or low speed, chances are you have an airflow problem. Changing fan blades, adding shrouds, airdams or electric fans can help but, measuring the actual improvement requires the proper equipment. Our new Digital Thermo-Anemometer allowing the pros and hobbyist alike to see and measure airflow increase step-by-step during the modification process.
We now offer a high quality digital instrument which measure air flow in...MPH, Km/Hr., Meters/Sec. or Knots while measuring the temperature in either C° or F° at the same time. A must for professional car builders and a true time and money saver for the hobbyist. Unit comes complete with monitor, cord and hand held measuring fan. Batteries not included.
Digital Flow-Meter
We now offer in our complete line of cooling diagnostic tools, instruments designed to help professionals better understand cooling system failures. Our new Digital Flow-Meter quickly and accurately measures coolant flow in gallons per minute at various RPM's while testing the vehicle in a garage or on a read test (this unit is portable and can be used while driving your vehicle). Obvious mechanical failures such as worn bushings and seals are easy to see and diagnose, but inadequate flow and cavitation caused by worn impellers can only be revealed by accurately measuring the cooling flow while the vehicle is running a t idle or test driven. The battery operated Digital Flow-Meter is light weight and portable with an easy reading lighted dial. unit comes complete with a 1-1/2" I.D. connection, wiring harness and easy calibration procedures. Installation is simple, unit plumbs directly into top radiator hose with wiring harness plug-in. The length of wires on the harness will easily reach from vehicles engine compartment to inside most vehicle cabs. Batteries not included.
Digital Temperature Gun
Last but not least we have now added a battery operated hand-held Digital Temperature Gun to our line of cooling diagnostic tools. The temperature gun is designed to give accurate, instant temperature readings. Professional car builders and hobbyist alike will find many uses for this new infra-red gun including, temperatures for sticking thermostats and for checking radiator cores for hot spots which would indicate blockage. Unit is hand held, light-weight and portable with a lighted dial for easy reading. Batteries not included
