Faster The Helium Leak Detection Method utilizing a sniffer probe registers leaks with
a response time of approximately one second.
Dry The Helium Leak test method is totally dry. There is no soap bubble residue or
water droplets to clean and dry after testing. The costs associated with cleaning
supplies and drying equipment can be eliminated, along with the mess and
unpleasantness of running a bubble test operation.
More Sensitive The helium molecule is so small that it can penetrate easily through a
smaller leak faster than a water or air molecule can.
More Reliable The helium leak detector signals and alarm when it detects helium,
taking the responsibility away from the operator of judging if a part actually leaks or
not.
Cost Savings Saving from reduced labor and floor space overhead costs can quickly
amortize the initial purchase cost of the equipment. Recovering and reuse of the helium
used for leak testing reduces helium costs significantly.
Easy of Operation The helium leak detection work is easily learned by former bubble
test operators or entry level personnel.
