Therefore, if possible, you should think about all the necessary components before filling and check the circuit for leaks. With the Dr. Drop PROFESSIONAL testing device including air pump, aqua computer supplies a practical set with which the water cooling circuit can be checked for such leaks before filling.
The aqua computer Dr. Drop PROFESSIONAL pressure tester at a glance:
– Set from Dr. Drop PROFESSIONAL pressure tester, air pump & accessories
– Pressure tester measures between 0 – 0.6 bar & is fully assembled
– A G1/4 inch internal thread for connection to the water cooling
– A test pressure can be generated with the air pump
– Functionality and purpose of Dr. Drop PROFESSIONAL
Many will now ask themselves how such a leak check can be done with Dr. Drop looks PROFESSIONAL. The answer to that is surprisingly simple. After completing water cooling, the Dr. Drop PROFESSIONAL testing device can be connected to the circuit. This is done via the existing G1/4 inch internal thread, which can be mounted with the appropriate connections on an adapter, hose or expansion tank, for example. The system can then be pressurized using the pump provided. aqua computer initially recommends 550 mbar, which should be regulated to 500 mbar using the drain valve after unscrewing the pump. After setting the test pressure, the system can be left to stand for approx. 15 – 30 minutes. If no drop in pressure is observed, the circuit is tight. However, if the pressure drops, you can search for leaks using a few drops of mineral spirits or similarly quickly evaporating liquids.
Furthermore, the pressure tester consists of a high-quality pressure gauge from Wika, which is a world leader in the production of mechanical pressure measuring devices. It is complemented by a CNC-milled aluminum connection terminal, which comes from aqua computer and is delivered pre-assembled with the pressure gauge.
The air pump tube is made of black anodized aluminum. It also fits on car valves, French valves and, with the included valve needle, on ball valves. A practical bicycle holder is also included in the scope of delivery; it has the hole size for bottle holders and is easy to assemble.
