Product catalog summary
Overview: The INFICON T-Guard Leak Detection Sensor offers the sensitivity and speed of helium leak detectors at a cost comparable to pressure decay systems. It operates at atmospheric pressure, eliminating the need for expensive vacuum chambers and pumps, making it a cost-effective and user-friendly alternative to traditional methods.
Benefits:
  • Up to 100 times more sensitive than pressure decay and water bath methods.
  • Detects leaks as small as 3 x 10-4 mbar l/s in under 20 seconds.
  • Operates at atmospheric pressure, reducing equipment costs.
  • Maintenance-free technology with proven reliability in over 1000 systems.
  • Unaffected by temperature and humidity variations.
  • Simple design enhances reliability and reduces ownership costs.

T-Guard Leak Detection Sensor The Sensitivity of Helium Leak Detction at a Pressure-Decay System price INFICON T-Guard Leak Detection Sensor delivers the sensitivity and speed helium leak detectors are known for, at a cost similar to pressure decay systems. T-Guard works with simple chambers at atmospheric pressure, so there is no need for costly and complex high vacuum chambers and pumps. That makes automated systems based on T-Guard an attractive alternative to pressure decay and water bath leak detection, providing up to 100 times the sensitivity with low cost of ownership and high ease of use. The measurements are also highly repeatable, even with large, warm or humid test objects. BENEFITS T-Guard Leak Detection Sensor brings increased levels of productivity, reliability and sensitivity to any stage of production when testing automotive components, valves and similar products.
