Lang Tools Diesel Compression Tester (TU15PB)

Description

The Lang Tools Diesel Compression Tester (TU15PB) is an essential diagnostic tool designed for accurately measuring compression pressure in diesel engines. This tester is built to handle the high pressures characteristic of diesel powerplants, offering a measurement range up to 1000 psi. Its analog gauge provides clear, instant readings, making it straightforward to interpret results. The integrated swivel-end quick coupler simplifies connections to a variety of adapters (sold separately), ensuring versatility across different engine types. With an automatic reset feature, the gauge quickly prepares for subsequent tests, streamlining your diagnostic process. This precision instrument helps users identify engine issues such as worn piston rings, damaged valves, or head gasket leaks, which are critical for maintaining engine performance and preventing further damage.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• High-pressure measurement: Handles compression up to 1000 psi for diesel engines.
• Clear analog display: Easy-to-read dial with crisp numerical markings for quick interpretation.
• Swivel-end quick coupler: Simplifies connection to adapters for a wide range of engine types.
• Automatic reset function: Quickly resets gauge between cylinder tests for efficiency.
• Diagnostic reliability: Helps identify internal engine issues like worn rings, valves, or gaskets.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Measuring Range: 0–1000 psi
• Gauge Type: Analog
• Included in Product: Tester unit with hose and swivel-end quick coupler

HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare the Engine: Ensure the engine is at normal operating temperature. Turn it off and allow it to cool slightly.
2. Disable Fuel System: Disconnect the fuel injector pump or disable the fuel supply to prevent fuel entry.
3. Remove Glow Plugs or Injectors: Carefully extract glow plugs or injectors from the cylinders to be tested.
4. Connect Tester: Attach the correct adapter (sold separately) to the TU15PB tester’s hose. Thread it into the cylinder port.
5. Crank Engine: Crank with throttle wide open until the gauge reading stabilizes (usually 4–7 strokes).
6. Record and Release: Record the compression reading. Press the relief valve to reset the gauge.
7. Repeat: Repeat for each cylinder and compare results to detect discrepancies.
