INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your Test-Quick product by Flo-Dynamics.
LPLT-100 EV BATTERY PACK LEAK TESTER
The Test-Quick LPLT-100 by Flo-Dynamics is the most affordable and simple to
use low-pressure leak tester on the market. It is the only low-pressure leak tester
that is guaranteed to be 100% free of vapor or smoke leak detection dye.
Leak test EV battery packs without contamination, using filtered and moisture-
free air to ensure a correct seal after performing service. The LPLT-100 allows
for a technician to connect, test, and provide an accurate leak flow rate on the
flow meter. Simply switch the control knob to Decay/Off to perform pressure
decay testing.
LPVLT-100 LOW PRESSURE / VACUUM LEAK TESTER
The Test-Quick LPVLT-100 by Flo-Dynamics is the most affordable and simple to
use combination low-pressure and low-vacuum leak tester on the market. It is the
only low-pressure and low-vacuum leak tester that is guaranteed to be 100% free
of vapor or smoke leak detection dye. Using filtered and moisture-free air to test
EV battery packs will ensure the battery pack is correctly sealed after performing
service without adding contamination.
The LPVLT-100 allows a technician to connect, test, and give an accurate result
to a leak size in BOTH pressure and vacuum. Provides leak size results in mm/in
WC with dedicated flow meters for pressure and vacuum. To perform pressure
decay testing, simply switch the control knob to Decay/Off and monitor the
compound Pressure/Vacuum gauge.
Please take time to read through this manual to familiarize yourself with the unit
before performing your first EV battery pack leak test.
