Pressure Drop Test Instrument

Detect leaks of the ignition chamber quickly

Simple

Time the pressure decay and compare the cylinders. Its fast and simple with easy to interpret results.

Predictive

Healthy engine compartments ensure proper operation in the long term saving stress and repairs.

Fuel Efficiency

Performance optimisations are key in a financially pressured sector and the PDTI is a great solution.

The Pressure Drop Test from CMT is designed to detect leakages in the combustion chamber. Fuel costs remain one of the largest components of vessel operating expenses. Every leak inside the cylinder reduces efficiency, increases fuel consumption, and raises the risk of costly repairs.

This test is a great addition to any engine optimisation schedule. While the PREMETs can detect signs of pressure drop during operation, the Pressure Drop Test can give definite results and guide the crew to necessary repairs.

There are various issues that can lead to loss of pressure in the engine. For example, a leakage of the exhaust valve or an issue with the piston rings. If undetected, all these issues can lead to costly repairs and downtime. Therefore, regular checks not only increase power efficiency but are also an important part of condition maintenance.

The Pressure Drop Tester is built to last. The high-quality gauge has a protective shell, and the rigid 3D-printed stainless steel casing ensures airtight measurement conditions while also protecting the operator.
