Experience unmatched accuracy and reliability with IMS helium leak detectors. Designed and built to provide advanced, (semi) automated helium gas leak detection tailored to your products. Our detectors, equipped with the best Mass Spectrometers, accurately count helium particles, ensuring meticulous leak testing for a wide range of customer products. From a few centimeters to one meter in size.
IMS helium leak detectors are instrumental in various sectors. The medical industry and the automotive industry predominantly utilize our products. Products which include but are not limited to pressure sensors, temperature sensors, pumps, (high-voltage) relays, contactors, and valves. Ensuring leak detection from 1×10-7 mbar.l/s (1×10-6 Pa.m3/s) up to 1×10-9 mbar.l/s (1×10-8 Pa.m3/s), our devices are configured to meet the unique demands of your production environment.
Ensure swift production cycles with helium leak detectors. Designed to integrate seamlessly into your environment, with cycle times varying typically between 5 and 10 seconds. Integration of barcode and other product-identification technologies ensures meticulous product-traceability. Furthermore, enjoy the convenience of automatic calibration with our helium leak detectors.
In industries such as automotive and medical, where quality assurance is paramount, helium leak detectors serve a crucial role in maintaining stringent leak detection standards. Helium is the preferred choice for leak detection. This practice helps identify assembly issues, avert customer dissatisfaction, and preempt future claims, while also assisting in defining product warranties, managing quality assertions, and handling warranty issues.
Explore the “helium charged vacuum test” principle, a method wherein parts are pressurized with helium and placed within a vacuum chamber connected to a vacuum pump and a mass spectrometer (the leak detector). Detect and measure any leakage effectively and act by either approving or rejecting parts based on the measurements. Additionally, learn about the “helium charged sniffer test” method and further information on how helium leak detectors operate here.
The helium level or leak rate, such as 1×10⁹ mbar.l/s (indicating 1CC of gas leaking through a leak in 30 years), signifies the product’s leakage longevity and is an essential measure for establishing approval and rejection parameters tailored to specific use-case factors.
IMS brings you fully-automatable helium leak detectors that offer extensive customizable options, enabling adaptation for any use. Adjust recipe handling, detection rates, vacuuming parameters, rinsing procedures, and calibration parameters according to your needs, even with machines supplied for parallel processes to enhance testing cycle times.
