Description
Integrated high quality components enable first-class performance for absolute measurement accuracy at outstanding speed. The simple navigation and robust construction make the LX218 leak detector the ideal choice for companies in a wide range of industries. The helium leak detector has a start-up time of less than three minutes and offers a fast leak test and reaction time. A further advantage: With its vacuum mode and sniffing option, it is perfectly suited for efficient leak localization and leak size determination.
Functions:
- When using the vacuum method the test object is evacuated and subjected to helium or forming gas from the outside. To do this it is necessary to establish a vacuum connection between the device and the test object.
- When using the sniffer method an overpressure is established in the test object using helium or a forming gas. The test object is then inspected on the outside using a sniffer line.
