Applications
SISCO brake fluid tester is widely used in automotive workshops, inspection stations, fleet maintenance, and by car owners for routine vehicle care. It quickly detects moisture content or boiling point changes in brake fluid, helping ensure reliable braking performance and compliance with DOT standards (DOT 3, DOT 4, DOT 5.1). This makes it an essential tool for mechanics, inspectors, and drivers to maintain safety and prevent brake failure.

Q1: What is a brake fluid tester?
A1: A brake fluid tester is a tool used to check the condition of brake fluid in a vehicle. It measures factors like water content or boiling point, since moisture in brake fluid lowers its effectiveness and can lead to brake failure. By providing a quick pass/fail or percentage reading, it helps determine whether the brake fluid is safe to use or needs to be replaced.
Q2: What types of brake fluid can a brake fluid tester test?
A2: Most brake fluid testers are designed to test glycol-based fluids, including DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1. These are the most common types used in passenger cars and light trucks. They are not suitable for DOT 5 silicone-based brake fluid, which requires different testing methods.
Q3: How does a brake fluid tester work?
A3: A common brake fluid tester works by submerging its electrodes into the brake fluid, then measuring the electrical conductivity of the fluid. Because brake fluid naturally absorbs water over time, this water increases its conductivity. The tester uses a traffic light system of LEDs to indicate the percentage of water content and the overall condition of the fluid, with green meaning no water and red indicating a high level of moisture that requires a brake fluid flush.
Tips: How often should brake fluid be tested?
Brake fluid should ideally be tested at least once a year or during every routine vehicle service. Because brake fluid is hygroscopic, it naturally absorbs moisture from the air over time. Even small amounts of water in the fluid can significantly lower its boiling point, which increases the risk of vapor lock, brake fade, or total brake failure under heavy braking or high-temperature conditions.
For vehicles that experience extreme conditions—such as high ambient temperatures, frequent stop-and-go driving, towing, racing, or heavy-load operation—it is recommended to test brake fluid more frequently, sometimes every 6 months, to ensure optimal braking performance and overall safety.
