600 bar Injector Tester by KS Tools

An engine that smokes, runs unevenly or lacks power? Then the injectors should be checked. With the KS Tools injector tester up to 600 bar, you can test mechanical injectors for opening pressure, tightness and spray pattern. This provides clear insight into the condition of the injection system before overhaul or replacement.

What can be tested?

This mechanical tester allows you to check:

• Injector opening pressure
• Spray pattern and atomization
• Leakage or dripping after closing
• Overall function under pressure

The precision pressure gauge Ø100 mm (0–600 bar) clearly shows at which pressure the injector opens. By comparing multiple injectors under the same conditions, deviations are easy to identify.

Suitable for which engines?

This tester is intended for engines with mechanical injectors. Not suitable for modern common-rail or fully electronic injection systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tester suitable for diesel and petrol engines?

Yes, provided the engine uses mechanical injectors. Always verify the injection system type beforehand.

Can I test injectors without experience?

Operation is straightforward. It is important to know the specified opening pressure for your engine and compare it with the measured values.

Can you clearly see the difference between a good and a faulty injector?

Yes. A good injector opens at the correct pressure and produces an even spray pattern without dripping.

Is 600 bar sufficient?

For most mechanical injectors, a pressure range up to 600 bar is sufficient. Always check the injector specifications.

Can this device measure compression?

No. This unit is designed exclusively for injector testing. A separate compression tester is required for compression measurement.
