The Sealey VS830A is a professional, one-person pneumatic brake and clutch bleeding system designed for efficient hydraulic fluid flushing and bleeding. Its large 2.5L reservoir capacity ensures an entire system can be serviced with a single fill, minimizing the risk of air entering the system. A key benefit is its suitability for a wide range of vehicles, including those with ABS and high-performance systems requiring simultaneous bleeding of two nipples. A potential caveat is the requirement for a compressed air source to operate the pneumatic function.

The reservoir has a capacity of 2.5 liters, allowing for a full system flush without needing to refill during the process.
Yes, the included VS0218 high-flow twin brake bleed pipes are specifically designed for use on ABS service bleeds, allowing simultaneous opening of two valves.
The 90-degree angled connector provides better access and a more secure fit in tight spaces around the master cylinder reservoir, common on many European vehicles.
A standard workshop compressed air supply is sufficient. The tool operates pneumatically, creating a vacuum. Ensure your air compressor can provide consistent pressure.
After use, drain any residual fluid. Flush the reservoir and hoses with clean, new hydraulic fluid. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth. Ensure all components are dry before storage.
The 45mm cap is designed for most European models. For vehicles with different master cylinder reservoir sizes, adapter kits may be available separately or alternative cap sizes might be required.
Yes, the system is designed for both brake and clutch bleeding, as it operates by creating a vacuum to draw fluid through the hydraulic system.
Ensure a sufficient compressed air supply is connected and the regulator is set correctly. Check all hose connections for leaks. Verify the bleed nipple is fully open and the cap is securely seated on the master cylinder.
Check for air leaks at the master cylinder cap connection and around the bleed nipple. Ensure the bleed nipple is fully open. For twin bleed nipples, confirm both are open simultaneously when using the VS0218 pipes.
Ensure the correct cap size is used and it is firmly seated on the master cylinder reservoir. Inspect the cap's seal for damage and replace if necessary.
This is normal if the vehicle's system is very large or has significant air. However, if fluid loss is excessive, check for leaks in the vehicle's brake lines or elsewhere in the system.
Setup: Connect a suitable compressed air source to the tool's inlet. Ensure the reservoir is clean and filled with the appropriate new hydraulic fluid. Attach the appropriate cap and connector to the vehicle's brake or clutch master cylinder reservoir, then connect the bleed pipe(s) to the caliper or slave cylinder bleed nipple(s).
Compatibility: The VS830A is designed with a 45mm cap and a 90-degree angled connector, making it suitable for the majority of European vehicles. The VS0218 twin bleed pipes are specifically designed for vehicles with ABS and those featuring dual bleed nipples on calipers.
Care: After each use, thoroughly clean the reservoir and all hoses to prevent contamination. Flush the system with clean fluid to remove any residual brake fluid. Store the unit in a clean, dry environment. Periodically inspect the hoses and seals for wear or damage.
