1464TDIGITAL PRESSURE AND COMPRESSION TESTER
Description
Item 1464T is an instrument which can measure several different types of sensors; hence it can be used to
measure numerous parameters in the automotive industry. It is tted with an 80 bar pressure sensor, which can
be used to perform compression tests in petrol and diesel engines as well oil pressure, low pressure common
rail circuit and other tests.
A major advantage of item 1464T is that you can purchase several different additional kits to perform other tests
as well, including the high pressure circuit test in common rail engines. The internal software can be updated by
the user via USB connection (a PC connected to the Internet is required).
The result of the measurements is displayed on the 5 inch touch screen. The display will be either numeric or
graphic, depending on the test being performed.
Item 1464T is tted with an internal memory, to store the collected data, so that they can later be sent to a
computer.
Specications
80 bar sensor : precision ratiometric 1% FS (0º÷50º)
Power supply : rechargeable battery LiPo 3,7V / 1000mAh
Battery charge : via USB connector
Display : colour TFT, 5”, 480x272 pixels, tactile
Connectivity : USB (Windows)
Updatable software : V
Observations
- - The display is a tactile, resistive device; some precision is required so that it can respond. You can press it
with either your ngers or a non-sharp object – that is, any digital pen specially designed for resistive displays.
- This instrument is tted with a smart battery charge system. To charge the battery, just connect the instrument
to a USB port of the computer via the USB cable, or, alternatively, to a USB charger. The upper part accommo-
dates a battery charge indicator which goes on when the battery is charging, and automatically goes out when
the charge cycle is completed. The instrument can be left permanently connected to the charger; if the battery
runs down, the charging cycle will start again automatically.
- The software should be updated regularly, so that it can have the latest and best possible characteristics.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE EN
In the next picture you can see that the upper part of the tester accommodates a keypad with the start key and the
start and battery charge LED indicators.
The upper part of the tester accommodates a start button. Press it briey to start or turn off the instrument.
Once the tester has started, a splash screen with a logo will be displayed. Touching the display will bring up the
menu. Use the arrows to change the selected option. When the required option is displayed, press the relevant
button to select it.
When using the tester for the rst time, select rst the “Conguration” option and then the required options. When
the conguration screen is exited, it will be saved automatically. As you can see in the picture below, you can
congure the language, the brightness of the screen, the volume of the loudspeaker, the unit of measurement (bar/
PSI) and the colour of the text can be selected.
If any option is selected, the instrument will show what sensor should be used and where it should be connected
(see next picture). Connect the sensor as shown and press ”OK”. The measurement screen will be displayed.

Compression test
A six-bar chart will be displayed in the screens of the compressometer for petrol engines and of the compressome-
ter for diesel engines. The six bars can be used to measure up to six cylinders. Pressing the blue button indicating
the cylinder number will allow the cylinder that needs to be measured to be selected at any time. The selected
cylinder can be recognized by the arrow at the right of the bars.
The reading values thus obtained can be erased at any time by pressing the “Reset” button.
Once the measurements have been completed, you can press the “Save” button, so that they can be stored and
then sent to a computer via USB connection.
Press on the cross on the top left to go back to the main menu.
High pressure common rail test
Additional kit 1464AP is required to measure high pressure in the common rail circuits. To use the kit, follow the
relevant instructions.
What is the common rail system?
What is the common rail system?
The common rail system is one of the most advanced diesel fuel injection systems, based on the fuel injected
directly into the cylinder (direct injection) at high pressure (300 ÷ 2000 bar).
One of the great advantages of this new system lies in the fact that the nozzles are controlled electronically; so
an electronic unit decides what the exact amount of fuel needed by the engine is and sends an electrical system
to the injectors to open the nozzle. The fuel pressure in the common rail then passes into the cylinders through
the nozzles. The name common rail comes from the fact that the injectors are all connected to a common rail.
The injection system is divided into two distinct parts: the low pressure circuit and the high pressure circuit.
The low pressure circuit is responsible for getting fuel to the high pressure pump in optimal conditions of pressu-
re, ltering etc.
This tester allows the whole pressure circuit to be checked; the largest number of failures are produced in this
low pressure circuit.

11
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE EN
The low pressure circuit basically comprises the following: fuel tank, fuel pump, lter, pressure regulator and
pipes.
How can the low pressure circuit be tested?
Checking the low pressure circuit is relatively easy; the fuel pressure should be checked at certain points of the
system.
What can you check with this tester exactly?
You can check the whole low pressure circuit, which includes the fuel pump, fuel lter, pressure regulator and
piping system.
How can the low pressure circuit be tested?
The low pressure circuit test is a three step test.
Test n°. 1
Description: pressure test at high pressure pump inlet. Correct value: 2.5 bar.
Results of test n°. 1:
– Correct pressure: 2.5 bar. Go to test n°. 2
– Signicantly higher pressure: faulty regulator
– Signicantly lower pressure: go to test n°. 2
Test n°. 2
Description: pressure between low pressure pump and lter.
Correct value: 2.5 bar.
Results of test n°. 2:
Correct pressure: 2.5 bar. Go to test n°. 3
– Signicantly higher pressure (test n°. 1 was correct): dirty lter. Replace lter cartridge.
– Signicantly lower pressure (in test n°. 1 it was also signicantly lower):
– Turn off tap:
1) Pressure is 2.5 bar or higher: faulty regulator
2) Pressure is too low: faulty low pressure pump.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE EN
Test n°. 3
Description: return circuit pressure test.
Correct value: 0.7 ÷ 0.8 bar
Results of test n°. 3:
– Correct pressure: 0.7 ÷ 0.8 bar. Test completed successfully.
– Signicantly higher pressure: return tube obstructed. Once replaced, if pressure remains high, return valve of
high pressure pump is faulty.
– Signicantly lower pressure: return valve of high pressure pump is faulty.
Oil pressure test
To measure oil pressure, connect the sensor to the engine through the adapter. Pressure and the maximum rea-
ding value will be shown on the display. The latter can be reset at any time, by pressing the “Max. Reset” button.
Pressing the “Graphic” button will switch the tester to the graphic mode. The measurement can be interrupted at
any time, by pressing the “Pause” button. The image of the chart will remain xed, and the term “STOP” will be
shown in the upper part of the display. Press “Pause” to measure oil pressure again.
The measurement that is underway can be saved when needed, by pressing the “Save” key. The term “REC” will
be shown in the upper part of the display. Press “Save” again to store the value. The data thus saved can later be
sent to a computer via USB connection.
80 bar manometer
This instrument can measure pressures up to 80 bar, like a normal manometer.
The pressure and maximum reading values will be shown on the display. The latter can be reset at any time, by
pressing the “Max. Reset” button.
Pressing the “Graphic” button will switch the tester to the graphic mode. The measurement can be interrupted at
any time, by pressing the “Pause” button. The image of the chart will remain xed, and the term “STOP” will be
shown in the upper part of the display”. Press “Pause” to measure pressure again.
The measurement that is underway can be saved at any time, by pressing the “Save” button. The term “REC” will
be shown in the upper part of the display. Press “Save” again to store the value. The data thus saved can later be
sent to a computer via USB connection.
The pictures below show the numeric and graphic displays of the “Low pressure common rail”, “Oil pressure” and
“80 bar manometer” options.
