Leak Detection

Helium leak detection is regularly employed to test hermetic seals in fabricated assemblies. However, the increasing cost of helium, and desire to avoid wasting a strategic and limited resource, is driving a switch in leak detection gas to a blend of 5% hydrogen and 95% nitrogen. A smart alternative to test for hermeticity, this non-flammable leak check blend is an ideal source of leak check gas that can be produced at its point of use, offering a safe and cost-efficient means of leak sniffing. Relying on a blend of hydrogen and nitrogen ensures that components maintain the integrity of their seal.
