After completing the water circuit, the last step is usually filling the system. Occasionally, it happens that some liquid leaks out somewhere. This is often due to a hard tube or hose not being seated correctly or a connection not being fully tightened. With the Alphacool Leak Testing Tool, you can test the tightness of your water circuit even before filling the system.

The Leak Testing Tool consists of a hand pump, a pressure gauge, an 11/8 mm hose, which has a connection with a G1/4“ thread at the end. Everything is connected via a T-piece. The hose is 40 cm long and features a kink protection spring.

You connect the Alphacool Leak Testing Tool to a free G1/4“ connection in the system and operate the hand pump until the desired pressure is reached. Please note that there may be different maximum specifications depending on the manufacturer. Now, you should wait about 15 to 20 minutes. If the pressure has not dropped during this time, then the water circuit is tight.
