Yato YT-72985 is a brake fluid tester for cars and motorcycles manufactured in Poland.

Brake fluid is one of the most important liquids in cars and motorcycles. It transmits force from the brake pedal to the brake cylinders, helping the vehicle decelerate and stop safely. Brake fluid needs to be checked regularly to ensure quality, prevent water contamination, reduce braking efficiency, and even avoid risks to both drivers and pedestrians. Checking brake fluid seems simple but is actually quite challenging, especially for inexperienced technicians.

The Yato YT-72985 Brake Fluid Tester is the perfect solution to help technicians check brake fluid quickly, accurately, and safely.

Outstanding advantages of the device:

• Fast testing time: Simply insert the flexible probe into the brake fluid reservoir and switch on the device. The test result will appear on the LCD screen within seconds.
• Accurate results: The device measures brake fluid moisture content to determine its quality. The results are displayed as a percentage (%) of water content in the brake fluid.
• Safe to use: The flexible probe allows easy access to the reservoir without causing fluid leakage.

Additional information:
The Yato YT-72985 brake fluid tester is a specialized device for checking the quality of brake fluid in cars and motorcycles according to DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1 standards.

• Clear LCD display for test results.
• Equipped with 6 LED indicators:
  • Green LED: <0.1 – <1% (new fluid, good quality).
  • Yellow LED: 1.5% – 2.5% (fluid should be replaced soon).
  • Red LED: >3.0 – 4% (fluid must be replaced immediately).
• Audible alarm when fluid contains too much water.
• Comes with a 180 cm flexible probe for easy reservoir access.

Operating principle:
The tester works based on a chemical reaction between silver salt and water. When water dissolves in the brake fluid, it reacts with silver salt to form a white precipitate. This is detected by the device and displayed on the LCD screen or LED indicators.

Components:

• Flexible probe: Used to collect brake fluid samples.
• Sensor: Detects white precipitate.
• LCD screen or LED lights: Displays test results.

Steps for use:

1. Wipe the flexible probe with a dry cloth.
2. Dip the probe into the brake fluid.
3. Remove the probe.
4. Insert the probe into the sensor.
5. Read results on the LCD or LED display.

Result display:

• Green: New fluid, good quality.
• Yellow: Needs replacement soon.
• Red: Replace immediately.
• Audible alarm for excessive water content.

Benefits of using the tester:
Brake fluid is crucial for vehicle safety. It transmits force from the pedal to the brake system to slow down or stop the vehicle. Since brake fluid has a limited lifespan and requires periodic replacement, testing its quality is essential.

The tester provides:

• Accuracy: Uses scientific methods for precise results, better than visual inspection.
• Speed: Results in seconds, saving time and effort.
• Safety: Prevents leaks and braking failures.
• Cost savings: Early detection of issues prevents costly repairs.

For technicians, it helps:

• Perform fast and accurate tests.
• Detect brake fluid issues early.
• Save time and effort.

Overall, using a brake fluid tester brings significant benefits to both users and technicians.
