Coolant Test and Maintenance Kit
Refractometer, test strips and supplemental additive for checking coolant strength and inhibitor level as part of a scheduled service.
Features
- A refractometer reads mixture strength accurately on modern chemistries, where a floating-ball tester does not.
- Test strips show inhibitor level, which is the part of coolant condition that strength alone cannot reveal.
- Supplemental additive corrects a depleted inhibitor level without a full coolant change.
- Results recorded per machine turn coolant from an assumption into a maintained item.
- One kit serves a depot or a service van, and it replaces a visual check with a recorded strength and inhibitor reading against the machine.
Specifications
| Figure | Typical range | Unit | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kit contents | refractometer, strips, additive | what actually arrives on the shelf | |
| Measurement range | 0 - 60 glycol | % | has to cover the strengths in use |
| Strip parameters | nitrite, molybdate, pH | the inhibitor properties being monitored | |
| Test interval | at every service | h | trend matters more than a single reading |
