With recent public health concerns having risen due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Spectronics Corporation has strengthened its manufacturing of UV-C Germicidal products to stop airborne infections from causing further disruption to the public and the economy.
DetailsUV dye can extend the service life of vehicles. By finding leaks early, expensive repairs can be avoided. As vehicles age, leaks are much more likely to occur. In the United States, the average age and the total number of older cars on the road today have been steadily increasing.
DetailsModern R-1234yf air conditioning systems have new requirements for fluorescent leak detection. With concerns over rising fuel costs, manufacturers are developing more efficient, environmentally friendly vehicle systems.
DetailsTracer Products is proud to announce that their R-1234yf/PAG A/C DYE UV Leak Detection Kit (TPOPUV19) has won the 2019 People’s Choice Award for Leak Detection by the readers of PTEN (Professional Tool & Equipment News) Magazine.
DetailsLeakFinder LF2001, LF2008, and LF2001CS Oil-Based UV Leak Detection Dyes are the perfect tool for diagnosing leaks in engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, power steering fluid, hydraulic fluid, and more. But in larger vehicles – such as trucks and heavy-duty vehicles – the fluid reservoirs are typically bigger and contain more oil-based fluid than a standard passenger vehicle. When these bigger systems are being treated with fluorescent leak detection dye, more dye may be required to activate the fluorescent response effectively. Learn how to use the correct application dilution ratio in larger vehicle systems in the troubleshooting instructions below.

DetailsWESTBURY, NY— The LeakFinder® SOLO-SHOT™ Single-Use Syringe Universal A/C Leak Detection Kit (LF040CS) provides quality leak detection for all automotive air conditioning systems using R-134a, R-1234yf, or other widely used refrigerants. This kit utilizes fluorescent leak detection dye technology to pinpoint the exact source of all system leaks. Once the dye is added to the system, it circulates throughout and then exits at all leaks sites. When the escaping dye is exposed to high-intensity light, it fluoresces brilliantly and identifies all system leaks.
DetailsOver the past few years, automotive manufacturers have shifted over to using modern A/C units that utilize R-1234yf refrigerant. R-1234yf refrigerant has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) Rating than its predecessor R-134a. Today, most automotive manufacturers have adopted these highly efficient, ultra-low impact refrigerant systems.
DetailsCatching Problems Early Proactive maintenance helps technicians get ahead of potential vehicle breakdowns. There are scheduled dates for inspection and the maintenance of critical parts. Critical parts such as the transmission system, braking system, steering and suspension systems, wheels, tires, the exhaust system, the electrical system, belts and hoses, and other critical parts are inspected…
DetailsThe Elements of a PM Plan Preventative maintenance helps auto shops and fleet managers save money and be more efficient. Whether it’s maintaining inventory or executing successful repairs, a PM plan can optimize vehicle servicing. Preventative maintenance is comprised of four basic elements: engineering, economics, psychology, and execution. Each of these elements plays an important…
