UV Fluorescent Dyes for Oil and Fuel Leak Detection :

An Essential Solution !

At Fluotechnik, we understand the critical importance of quickly and accurately detecting oil and fuel leaks in industrial maintenance, as well as in the automotive and agricultural machinery sectors. Our UV fluorescent tracers, such as DETECT+ UV OIL YELLOW and RED, are designed to meet this challenge!

Principles of UV Tracers

UV tracers are fluorescent additives that, when mixed with oils or fuels, allow easy detection of even the smallest leaks under ultraviolet light. These tracers are especially useful for identifying leaks in hard-to-reach areas or complex systems.

Advantages of UV Tracers for Fast and Cost-Effective Leak Detection

Find out why UV tracers are the ideal solution to monitor your systems :

UV tracers detect leaks at their earliest stages, before they cause major damage or failures.

Early identification of leaks reduces repair costs and downtime by preventing severe damage.

Versatile and compatible with various fluids such as engine oil, cutting fluids, fuel, transmission fluids, etc.

UV tracers are non-corrosive and safe for all vehicle systems. They do not alter fluid properties.

Routine use of UV tracers helps identify leaks that may develop between service intervals.

Specific Applications

INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE

Detect leaks in storage tanks, pipelines, lubrication systems, and engines.

AUTOMOTIVE & HEAVY VEHICLES

Effective for leaks in AC systems, engines, transmissions, and other key components.

AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY

Enables quick detection of leaks in heavy equipment, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.

MARITIME INDUSTRY

Monitors fuel and oil leaks in vessels and port facilities, preventing marine pollution.

FUEL & LUBRICANT STORAGE FACILITIES

Detect leaks in large storage tanks and distribution systems, ensuring environmental safety.

Technical Advice & Best Practices

Dosage & Concentration

Follow dosage guidelines for each application. Contact your supplier’s technical service for support.

Thorough Inspection

Carry out regular inspections in areas prone to leaks.

Safety & Precautions

Use personal protective equipment, including UV safety glasses. Avoid direct exposure to eyes and skin.

Documentation & Monitoring

Record inspection results to track leak progress and repair efficiency.

Environmental Impact Assessment:

Use eco-friendly tracers that comply with local regulations.

The essentials of UV fluorescent tracers

Mixed with oils and fuels, these tracers become visible under UV light, making invisible leaks detectable with unmatched precision. Their special formulation ensures compatibility with a wide range of substances, making them extremely versatile.

Benefits & Efficiency

A Simple & Preventive Solution

Minimal dosage and fast application provide an economical, effective, and long-lasting solution.

Diagnostic Accuracy

High fluorescence allows precise detection of leaks and micro-leaks, even in dark, hard-to-reach environments.

Multi-Tracing

Use two tracers of different colors simultaneously to distinguish leaks in complex hydraulic systems.
