Brake fluid tester

• The brake fluid testers from Autotestgeräte Leitenberger are perfect digital measuring devices to quickly and easily test the presence of water in the brake fluid, specially designed for automotive workshops. The test results are displayed by means of two-line alphanumeric display or by LED light emitting diodes depending on % water in brake fluid.
• The condition of brake fluid in motor vehicles is an important factor in road safety.
• The hygroscopic property of brake fluid, i.e. the fact that brake fluid absorbs water, has the following effects: increased viscosity (slower functioning of the brakes), low boiling point and high corrosion effect in the brake system.
• If the proportion of water in the brake fluid is too high, vapor bubbles can form in the brake system under heat (highway or downhill driving). This can then cause the brake system to fail or the brake pedal to be pushed through.
• Timely replacement of used brake fluid ensures the road safety of the car and the service life of the brake system.
