Volvo Trucks North America and Mack Trucks have chosen Redline Detection to provide its equipment that will be used to service Volvo and Mack branded trucks at all of the company’s dealer network locations.
“Volvo Mack is leading the field in adopting new technology to maximize uptime and increase maintenance efficiency,” says Redline Detection Executive Vice President Alex Parker. “This equipment will speed maintenance and repair, as well as ultimately increase fuel efficiency, lower operating costs, and enhance Volvo Mack’s already world-class customer service.”
Redline Detection says the Volvo Mack HD PowerSmoke Diagnostic Leak Detector simulates the boost load of a heavy duty engine with the engine safely off, quickly pinpointing all upstream component faults caused by those time-worn, jarred, cracked components that are the root cause of hard-to-diagnose after- treatment problems.
HD PowerSmoke creates a dense, highly visible vapor at a variable pressure in the 2-20 PSI range that can test the entire system and pinpoint unseen air leaks in just minutes, saving valuable time in preventive maintenance and repair, dramatically increasing uptime, the company says. The visible vapor is free of dyes and contaminants so it’s safe for the technician, safe for the vehicle, and safe for the environment.
“The Volvo brand is synonymous with safety,” says Parker. “Redline has developed a reputation for engineering custom equipment solutions for the world’s leading heavy duty OEMs that improve performance, increase fuel economy, enhance customer service, and increase uptime. We take enormous pride in delivering top quality equipment, on time, on budget, every time.”
