Auto Smoke Leak Detector For EVAP System-AUTOOL SDT101

AUTOOL SDT101Product OverviewThe AUTOOL SDT101 is an EVAP-focused automotive smoke leak detector for quickly locating low-pressure pipe leaks in EVAP, intake, exhaust, fuel tank, sealing, and pipe fitting systems. It requires a DC 12V battery and an external air source, uses 10-15ml liquid paraffin or baby oil as testing oil, and regulates output pressure to 3.2kPa / 0.46psi for EVAP system leak detection.External Air Source DC12V Battery EVAP 3.2kPa 10-15ml Test Oil3.2kPaEVAP Output Pressure48WRated Power1.6kgMain Unit3 YearsWarranty Support Click to enlarge Click to enlargeBefore You Order And UseBefore You Order And UseSDT101 is an external-air-source EVAP smoke machine. Confirm the 12V power requirement, air source requirement, testing oil rule, operating time limit, and hot-surface warning before use.External Air Source RequiredSDT101 does not have a built-in air pump. Connect a shop air supply or external air compressor before smoke testing.DC12V Battery RequiredThe detector must be connected to a DC12V battery. It is designed for 12V vehicle testing environments.Testing Oil Not IncludedTesting oil is not included due to logistics restrictions. Use liquid paraffin or baby oil as the testing liquid.Add 10-15ml OnlyWhen using the smoke leak detector for the first time, fill 10-15ml testing oil. Do not exceed this range.Refill Only When Smoke Becomes ThinFresh oil can be added only when the smoke becomes thin. Do not fill more than 15ml each time.Drain Old Oil Before RefillingBefore adding fresh testing oil, pour out the remaining oil in the detector and replace detector oil regularly.8-Minute Use LimitDo not run the detector continuously for more than 8 minutes. Let the unit rest between tests.75°C ProtectionThe intelligent protection system automatically shuts off power if the internal temperature exceeds 75°C. Operate it again after cooling.Keep Away From Sensitive PartsDuring leak detection, keep smoke away from smoke-sensitive parts and avoid using smoke on systems that are not suitable for smoke testing.Safety ReminderThe round metal part of the detector becomes hot during operation. Avoid direct contact to prevent burns.Do not refill testing oil while the detector is running.If overheat protection is triggered, stop use and allow the machine to cool before restarting.Use SDT101 for low-pressure EVAP and pipe leak detection only. Do not use it as a high-pressure leak tester. Click to enlargeProduct DetailsProduct DetailsThe EVAP system captures fuel vapors from the fuel system, stores them in a charcoal canister, and routes them back to the engine for burning. Enhanced EVAP systems on many vehicles built after 1996 can self-test for leaks, but a smoke leak detector helps technicians visually confirm pipe, seal, and fitting leaks.3.2kPa EVAP PressureSDT101 uses a built-in pressure controller to fix output pressure at 3.2kPa / 0.46psi, helping prevent EVAP pipes from being damaged by excessive pressure.External Air Source ControlConnect an external air source and allow SDT101 to regulate the output for low-pressure EVAP testing.Visual Leak LocationSmoke makes small pipe leaks easier to find by showing where vapor escapes from the tested area.Key FeaturesKey FeaturesSDT101 combines fast smoke output, EVAP-safe pressure control, compact portability, external-air-source operation, protection functions, and 3-year support for low-pressure automotive leak detection.Fast Smoke OutputProduces smoke in about 10 seconds under proper setup, helping improve leak detection efficiency in workshop testing.External Air Source DesignConnect shop air supply, connect 12V vehicle power, open airflow from the external source, then switch on the smoke function to start smoke generation.Compact And PortableThe small body, handle, and lightweight design make SDT101 easier to transport, store, and use than larger smoke leak detectors.EVAP-Safe Low PressureThe 3.2kPa / 0.46psi output pressure is intended for EVAP system testing and low-pressure pipe leak checks.Overheat And Anti-Freeze ProtectionThe intelligent protection device shuts down power when temperature exceeds 75°C and supports low-temperature work down to -20°C.3-Year Warranty SupportFor eligible non-human damage cases, AUTOOL provides support and replacement parts within 3 years.

Does SDT101 Have A Built-In Air Pump? No. SDT101 does not have a built-in air pump. It needs to connect to an external air source or shop air supply before testing. What Power Supply Does SDT101 Need? SDT101 requires a DC12V battery connection. Connect the power cord clamp to a suitable 12V vehicle battery before switching on the detector. Why Is SDT101 Suitable For EVAP Testing? SDT101 uses an external air source with built-in pressure control and fixes output pressure at 3.2kPa / 0.46psi. This low pressure is designed for EVAP system testing and helps avoid excessive pressure on EVAP pipes. What Testing Oil Should I Use? Use liquid paraffin or baby oil as testing oil. Testing oil is not included in the package due to logistics restrictions, so it should be purchased locally. How Much Testing Oil Should I Add? Add 10-15ml testing oil before first use. Do not exceed this range. Fresh oil should be added only when the smoke becomes thin, and no more than 15ml should be added each time. Before adding fresh oil, pour out the remaining oil in the detector. Can SDT101 Detect Very Small Pipe Leaks? SDT101 helps technicians locate small low-pressure pipe leaks by filling the test area with smoke and showing where smoke escapes. The final leak judgment should be made according to the tested system and repair procedure. What Systems Can SDT101 Test? SDT101 supports low-pressure smoke checks for EVAP systems, intake systems, exhaust systems, car sealing, various pipe fittings, fuel tank systems, crankcase air leakage, front and rear oil seals, intercooler air leaks, throttle leaks, intake air duct gasket leaks, poorly closed valves, and suitable air or water leak paths. Can SDT101 Be Used For High-Pressure Systems? No. SDT101 is a low-pressure EVAP and pipe smoke leak detector with 3.2kPa / 0.46psi output pressure. Do not use it as a high-pressure leak tester. How Long Can SDT101 Run Continuously? Do not operate the detector continuously for more than 8 minutes. Let it rest between uses to protect the machine and maintain stable operation. What Should I Do If Overheat Protection Is Triggered? The detector automatically shuts off power if the internal temperature exceeds 75°C. Stop operation and allow the machine to cool before restarting. Avoid touching the round metal part because it may be hot. What Accessories Are Included? The package includes 1 pc SDT101 smoke leak detector, 1 pc EVAP special connector, 1 pc standard cone adapter, 1 pc power cord clamp, 1 pc valve core wrench, 1 pc empty test oil refill bottle, 1 pc smoke hose, and 1 pc user manual. Testing oil is not included. What Is The Difference Between SDT101 And SDT100? SDT101 is an EVAP-focused model that requires an external air source and outputs 3.2kPa / 0.46psi low pressure. SDT100 has a built-in air pump and is better for users who want a compact smoke detector without connecting shop air. What Is The Difference Among AUTOOL Smoke Leak Detector Models? SDT101 and SDT103 are EVAP-focused external-air-source models around 3.2kPa. SDT50, SDT60, SDT100, and SDT106 are built-in pump options. SDT203, SDT205, and SDT205S add more workshop control features depending on model. SDT206 and SDT208 are higher-end options, with SDT208 supporting high-pressure and low-pressure modes.
