Description
Key Product Features:
- Dual transmission service modes: Select either Cooler Mode or Dipstick Mode when powering up the machine, allowing technicians to service a broader range of automatic transmissions.
- Fully automatic fluid exchange: Once the desired exchange quantity is selected, the machine filters and removes used ATF while replacing it with new fluid.
- High-output Boost pump: A supplementary diaphragm pump increases suction performance in low-flow and temperature-controlled transmission systems.
- Faster cooler-line service: The cooler-line configuration delivers an average full-exchange time of approximately 3–6 minutes under suitable operating conditions.
- Dipstick-tube exchange capability: An included clear dipstick hose allows fluid to be removed and replaced through the transmission dipstick tube when cooler-line access is inconvenient or unavailable.
- Approximately 8–14-minute dipstick exchange: MAHLE lists this average service time for a typical 12-quart exchange performed in Dipstick Mode.
- Digital weight-scale technology: Separate new- and used-fluid tanks are mounted on load cells for precise real-time fluid measurement.
- Automatic flow matching: The electronic controller monitors the weight of outgoing used fluid and adjusts the new-fluid pump to maintain the proper replacement rate.
- High measurement accuracy: The system is rated for scale accuracy of approximately ±0.03% across its usable range.
- Selectable exchange quantities: The keypad provides preset exchange selections of 4, 8, 12, 16, or 20 quarts.
- Automatic fluid-level correction: Dedicated controls add or remove transmission fluid in ½-quart increments after the exchange.
- Transmission pan-drain function: Helps remove fluid from the transmission pan before filter replacement or pan removal.
- Automatic bypass protection: After completing a cooler-line exchange, the machine automatically switches to its bypass circuit to maintain safe vehicle circulation until the procedure is stopped.
- Patented vehicle-protection circuit: The bypass design helps protect the transmission if electrical power to the machine is interrupted during service.
- Fluid-flow direction verification: Illuminated indicators help confirm correct service-hose connections and proper transmission flow direction.
- Start-engine indicator: Guides the technician during setup and Dipstick Mode procedures.
- Transmission diagnostic pressure gauge: Displays transmission operating pressure during cooler-line service, helping technicians evaluate circulation and system operation.
- New and used fluid sight glasses: Allows visual comparison of clean ATF entering the transmission and contaminated fluid leaving the vehicle.
- Real-time digital tank displays: Two LED readouts show the amount of fluid in the new- and used-fluid tanks throughout each procedure.
- Automatic process-complete alert: An audible buzzer and illuminated indicator notify the technician when a selected operation has finished.
- Empty-used-tank function: Transfers collected transmission fluid into a bulk disposal container using a dedicated drain hose.
- Empty-new-tank function: Removes unused new ATF when changing fluid types or preparing the machine for another application.
- Multiple-fluid capability: Separate tank-emptying controls allow shops to change transmission fluid types between services.
- Dual 26-quart tanks: Includes separate 26-quart tanks for new and used transmission fluid.
- Positive-displacement new-fluid pump: Delivers approximately four quarts per minute during normal fluid replacement.
- 7.2-quart-per-minute Boost pump: The supplementary diaphragm pump increases used-fluid suction to approximately 7.2 quarts per minute.
- Long cooler-line hoses: Includes 10-foot red and black exchange hoses for convenient connection to vehicle transmission cooling circuits.
- Dedicated dipstick hose assembly: Includes a five-foot clear hose connected to an eight-foot service hose for Dipstick Mode operation.
- Valved low-spill couplers: Service-hose couplers help minimize fluid loss and shop-floor spills during connection and disconnection.
- Standard adapter coverage: Includes cooler-line adapters for common Ford, General Motors, Chrysler, and universal Asian applications.
- Integrated filtration: Used transmission fluid is filtered before entering the machine’s waste-fluid tank.
- Five serviceable filter screens: Internal filter screens can be inspected and cleaned to maintain proper flow and dependable operation.
- 12V vehicle-powered operation: Operates from the vehicle’s 12V DC electrical system and requires approximately 10 amps.
- Reverse-polarity warning: Alerts the technician if the battery connections are installed incorrectly.
- Tank-capacity warnings: Illuminated indicators warn when the used-fluid tank lacks sufficient capacity or the new-fluid tank contains too little fluid for the selected exchange.
- Mobile workshop design: Front swivel casters and cushioned rear wheels make the machine easier to position around vehicles and service bays.
- Machine dimensions: Approximately 45 inches high, 28 inches wide, and 26.5 inches deep.
- Machine weight: Approximately 244 pounds for the ATX-3+Boost configuration.
- Manufacturer part number: 400 80009 00.
- Professional applications: Ideal for automotive dealerships, transmission repair specialists, independent service shops, fleet maintenance departments, quick-lube facilities, and automotive training programs.
