Applications: Engine Coolant Systems EG-Chek Why take chances? For precise reading of Ethylene Glycol coolant concentration, hydrometers just don’t measure up. The Reichert Digital EG-Chek accurately and effectively tests Ethylene Glycol coolant Freeze Point, Boiling Point, and % Concentration. This fast, simple test provides greater peace of mind for your customers while increasing your service Our fast, accurate digital tester performs three critical tests on the engine coolant: Get dependable digital accuracy in a three-in-one tool! Measures Freeze Point of EG coolant: The Reichert digital EG-Chek’s Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) provides immediate, accurate, and direct readings at ASTM D3321 standard of +/- 1 degree F and +/- 0.55 degree C. This ensures that the coolant has a low freezing point, so there are no engine block or radiator freeze-ups when the vehicle is not in operation during the cold winter months. Measures Boiling Point of EG coolant: The engine coolant raises the boiling point of water in a vehicle’s cooling system. This guards against boil-overs, engine break-downs, and ensures that the cooling system is operating at peak efficiency (see back). Measures % Concentration: Measures the exact concentration of the Ethylene Glycol and water mixture to ensure the engine coolant is at the correct chemical specification. Detects for over-concentration or under-concentration of the coolant – either scenario will cause damage to engine components.
