OmiScan Gas – The New Diagnostic Solution
Omitec Limited Manufacturers of specialist diagnostic solutions for the OE and aftermarket have announced the launch their new Diagnostic Gas Analyser, the OmiScan Gas.
The OmiScan Gas is a fully portable and comes as either a 4 or 5 gas analyser designed for workshop and on road testing. The unit consists of a base station containing the pump, filters, oxygen and NOx cells which is connected via Bluetooth to a hand held display and control unit.
The technician can display a single gas, or up to all 5 gases at one time depending on preference. OmiScan Gas can also display Lambda, Air Fuel Ratio and corrected CO measurement. (Engine RPM and temperature via Bluetooth is also available.) The OmiScan Gas offers the same accuracy as a MoT Gas analyser to OIML Class 0, with an exceptionally fast response time and BET’S test. The OmiScan gas also has an extremely rapid warm up time of around 2 minutes. The Base Station and handset is fully re-chargeable with a battery life in excess of 4 hours.
All information can be downloaded to a PC and up to 1 hour of recorded readings of all data and can be displayed in lined or bar graph format. This function allows the included software to suggest where problems may exist, by using the guided diagnostics. For example, typical faults that can be pin pointed include ignition problems, air leaks, oxygen sensor faults, faulty catalysts and many other related problems.
Using the OmiScan Gas on road test allows the technician to identify faults which only occur when the vehicle is driven. To enable this, the handset remains in the cab with the technician and is connected to via Bluetooth to the gas analyser in the boot. The snap shot facility included on the handset is especially useful for the diagnosis of intermittent faults.
John Watkins, Chairman of Omitec, said ‘This really is a diagnostic tool with some cutting edge software which allows the traditional method of Gas analysis to be used diagnostically to indentify vehicle faults. The key benefit of this tool is that it doesn’t only measure gas readings but interprets them and then directs the technician to the root of the problem. We have already seen significant interest in this product from overseas particularly the United States’.
