Description

sonde pour opacimètre poids lourds

The stand-alone smoke meter for diesel engines

The CAP3201 O measures the opacity of exhaust fumes from diesel engines. Robust and stand-alone, it is used in vehicle inspection centres for heavy vehicles as well as in car repair shops.

It is suitable for a wide range of vehicles: cars, lorries, buses, motorhomes and off-road vehicles.

Reliable measurement, no prior adjustment required

The smoke meter is automatically zeroed and calibrated. The operator follows the procedure and prints the results on the built-in thermal printer.

Vehicle inspection and diagnostics

At technical inspection centres, the CAP3201 O checks compliance with smoke emission limits. In workshops, it monitors and verifies emissions from diesel engines. A tachometer with a piezo or induction sensor completes the measurement.

To test petrol engines as well, the CAP3201 GO combination unit combines a smoke meter with a multi-gas analyser.
