ROMESS BFS Brake Fluid Tester

The ROMESS BFS brake fluid tester is an extremely reliable and precise instrument specifically developed for the quick and accurate checking of brake fluid quality. This device is essential for professional workshops, ensuring that vehicle brake systems always operate at an optimal safety level by measuring the moisture content. The BFS model is a key component of the ROMESS brake maintenance portfolio, guaranteeing compliance with strict quality specifications.

Overview and Key Features

The ROMESS BFS brake fluid tester is an indispensable tool for modern vehicle maintenance. Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture from the environment, which significantly lowers its boiling point, thus compromising braking efficiency, especially under high loads or prolonged braking (e.g., on mountain roads). The purpose of the BFS instrument is to quickly and clearly determine the percentage of water content in the brake fluid, enabling workshops to perform necessary replacements in a timely manner.

Main Advantages:

• Fast and Accurate Measurement: Provides reliable results on the condition of the brake fluid in minimal time.
• Simple Operation: Its intuitive user interface allows for quick mastery of its use, requiring minimal training.
• Wide Compatibility: Compatible with various brake fluid types (see technical data).
• Reliability: Thanks to its robust design, it is ideal for continuous use in workshop environments.

Technical Data

The ROMESS BFS brake fluid tester represents the highest engineering standard. The table below details the specifications of the device:

Detailed Functions and Application Areas

A BFS fékfolyadék-vizsgáló nem csupán egy egyszerű kijelzővel ellátott eszköz; a ROMESS mérnöki filozófiája tükröződik a precíz és felhasználóbarát működésben.

Moisture Content Interpretation

The moisture content of the brake fluid is a critical parameter. The BFS device can visually display the following ranges, aiding in quick decision-making:

• < 1.0 % H₂O: Excellent condition, replacement is not necessary. 1.0 % – 2.0 % H₂O: Warning zone, brake fluid replacement is recommended in the near future. > 2.0 % H₂O: Critical condition, immediate brake fluid replacement is required for safe operation.
• > 3.0 % H₂O: Dangerous level, the boiling point has drastically decreased.

Operating Process

The use of the BFS is extremely simple, minimizing potential errors during service work:

1. Preparation: Convince yourself that the testing equipment components are fresh.
2. Sample Collection: Carefully insert the probe into the brake fluid reservoir (usually the master brake cylinder reservoir). It is important that the probe is fully submerged in the fluid to be tested.
3. Starting Measurement: Press the power button (or the button to start the measurement). The device will immediately begin measuring the electrical capacitance.
4. Reading the Result: Within a few seconds, the exact water content of the brake fluid will appear on the digital display in percentage form.
5. Cleaning: After the measurement, wipe the probe with a clean, dry cloth before using it for the next measurement or storing it.

Compatibility and Flexibility

The design of the BFS brake fluid tester took into account the diversity of vehicle fleets. It can reliably test the most common glycol-ether-based brake fluids:

• DOT 3: Common in older vehicles and some commercial vehicles.
• DOT 4: The most common modern passenger car brake fluid.
• DOT 5.1: Synthetic fluid with a higher boiling point, which is also glycol-based, so it is tested by the BFS.

Note: Silicone-based DOT 5 brake fluids (which are not glycol-based) cannot be tested with this device based on the capacity measurement principle.

Quality and Reliability

The ROMESS brand is synonymous with precision measuring instruments in the automotive industry. The BFS brake fluid tester also follows this tradition. The device's robust housing protects the sensitive electronics from the mechanical stress, dust, and minor splashes common in workshops. Long-life batteries ensure the instrument is always ready for use when needed.

This brake fluid tester is the ideal choice for:

• Car services and dealerships.
• Independent workshops that want to maintain the highest standard during safety inspections.
• Fleet operators who have their own maintenance capabilities.

With the ROMESS BFS brake fluid tester, brake system maintenance is not just a mandatory task, but a scientifically sound, fast, and efficient process.
