5. Instruccions de funcionament

The AUTOOL CT160 offers various functions for comprehensive injector maintenance. Ensure the unit is properly set up and fluids are at appropriate levels before beginning any operation.

5.1. Neteja per ultrasons

Ultrasonic cleaning uses high-frequency sound waves to agitate the cleaning fluid, effectively removing carbon deposits and impurities from the injectors.

1. Place the injectors into the ultrasonic cleaning bath using the provided bracket. Ensure the nozzles are submerged in the cleaning fluid.
2. Select the "Ultrasonic Cleaning" function on the control panel.
3. Set the desired cleaning time. The unit can heat the cleaning fluid to 45°C for improved cleaning efficiency.
4. Start the cleaning process. The unit will send pulse signals to the injectors during cleaning to facilitate the removal of internal deposits.
5. Once cleaning is complete, remove the injectors and inspect them.

5.2. Injector Testing Functions

The CT160 simulates various engine conditions to test injector performance. Ensure injectors are securely mounted on the test bench and connected to the oil separator.

Figure 6: Control Panel with Function Menu.

Available tests include:

• Idle Test (0-20 ms): Simulates engine idling conditions to test injector status.
• Medium Speed Test (0-7.5 ms): Simulates engine operation at medium speed.
• High Speed Test (0-4 ms): Simulates engine high-speed performance.
• Prova d'acceleració: Simulates car acceleration conditions.
• Shift Speed Test: Simulates car gear shift conditions.
• Prova de fuites: Checks the sealing integrity of the fuel injector.
• Idle Spray Test: Observes injector spray performance at idle.
• Medium Speed Spray Test: Observes injector spray performance at medium speed.
• High Speed Spray Test: Observes injector spray performance at high speed.
• Unit Info: Displays product number and manufacturing date.

1. Select the desired test function from the menu.
2. Adjust parameters such as pulse width and injection times as needed using the control panel.
3. Start the test. Observe the spray pattern, uniformity, and leakage in the graduated cylinders.
4. Compare the results with expected values to diagnose injector performance.
