• Multiple channels for use of one remote with up to twenty leak detectors

2. VS C15 Component Leak Detector

The VS C15 Component Leak Detector simplifies the complex task of leak detection integration by raising the standard for Ease of Integration, Communications Flexibility, Industrial Robustness, and Supportability for today’s industrial integration market.

• Compact housing minimizes space requirements – everything needed to do the job is located within one box. Over 50% reduction in space when compared to competitive systems
• Simplified interface with only two cables required, one for power, one for communications
• Does not require mounting modules or bulky, expensive interconnecting cables that are found standard in most leak detection systems today
• Most comprehensive array of interface options, including serial, discrete I/O and Profinet. Other interface options to be made available when required.
• Optional color touch screen display allows access to system status information and all operating parameters
• Critical leak detector components are safely housed in a single enclosure protecting them from the industrial environment
• Selectable sensitivity scales and a Contra-Flow vacuum design ensures fast, accurate measurements while maximizing protection from contamination in industrial applications
• Calibrated leak (10-7 range) included
• Widest operating temperature range, suitable for warm factory environments.

3. 959  Leak Detetor

The 959 MacroTorr Helium Leak Detector fulfills the need for a rugged and dependable leak detector in the most demanding industrial applications. With its low price and cost of ownership, this unit is the most cost effective leak detector available. It is available in stand-alone, bench-top, and two-wheel cart configurations. We have designed these units with large externally-mounted primary pumps that deliver high roughing speeds for fast pump down times. The bench-top and cart-mounted versions are available with Agilent DS 302 rotary vane pumps or TriScroll 320 dry pumps.

• Rugged, easy to use, idea for many industrial applications
• Single button test activation, automatic pump down and transfer into test mode
• Vacuum testing at high inlet pressures – up to 1 Torr – shortens time-to-test
• Auto-protection from test port overpressure, power failures and operator errors
• Wet and dry versions available

3. PHD-4  Portable Leak Detector

The PHD-4 is a portable, compact leak detector that runs on its own battery for up to four hours. Weighing only 2.6 kg  (5.7 lbs) including the battery, it can be taken anywhere.  The PHD-4 detects very small leaks in objects that have a slight helium/air pressure inside. It is sensitive to helium concentrations as small as 2 parts per million which equivalent to a leak rate of 5 x 10-6 atm-cc/sec. This level of sensitivity is far superior to the performance of other means of detecting leaks such as bubble testing. To accomplish this it relies on Agilent’s proprietary and patented Selective Ion Pump Detection (SIPD) technology. Controlled by a microprocessor, the PHD-4 is easy to use with no training required. All tuning and zeroing are handled automatically. The display can be set to use any of four languages – English, French, German, and Italian.

• Sensitivity and portability in a very economical package
• Easy to use – no training required
• Battery power, and light weight (2.6 kg (5.7lbs)), make it ideal for field maintenance applications.
• Versatile – Suitable for many different applications

• Dependable – Long term operation
