Find Hydraulic Fluid Leaks Quickly and Accurately Every year, millions of gallons of hydraulic fluid are lost – leading to contaminated work areas and cost overruns. Hydraulic equipment cannot operate correctly if fluid levels are low and are not meeting manufacturers’ specifications. If hydraulic leaks persist, equipment will be at risk of mechanical failure. This inevitability…
The Key to Our Future Student engagement is the key to our future. That’s why Spectronics Corporation encourages young people to visit its manufacturing headquarters located in Westbury, New York.

What’s the real cost of leaking hydraulic fluid? The cost of lost operational fluid can rise into tens of thousands of dollars. Fluid-based systems quickly breakdown, overheat, and fail when there isn’t enough vital, operational fluid. Think about it. When your equipment is stuck in the repair shop, it’s costing you thousands in lost operating revenue. That net revenue includes wages, permits, repair costs, lost working hours, reduced equipment service life – everything.

Know What Works Fluorescent dyes provide the fastest and most accurate leak detection method for AC/R systems. When added to a suspect system, the escaping fluorescent dye exits all leak areas. Exposing the system to violet light causes the dye to fluoresce brightly. Very small leaks can be detected at a distance and technicians can…
Cool Seal™ A/C Leak Sealer Cool Seal™ is the hassle-free way to seal refrigerant leaks in condensers, evaporators, O-rings, and hoses – quickly and permanently. It’s an economical alternative to expensive parts replacement and can add years to older, out-of-warranty AC&R systems leaking small amounts of refrigerant. As an added benefit, this dependable sealer…
Contamination Problems Particulate and water contamination can affect the physical and chemical properties of hydraulic fluid. The alteration of these properties – which are critical to the longevity of your hydraulic equipment – will make your equipment run inefficiently, hurting performance and increasing the risk of breakdown. Hydraulic fluids have specially crafted properties…
There are many ways to save on your air conditioning bills. Here are some suggestions to reduce your energy costs. Upgrade to a High Efficiency System Replacing an older system with a high efficiency one can save you thousands of dollars in energy costs. Older systems operate around at 65% AFUE (annual fuel utilization efficiency).…
