Helium Mass Spectrometry

Tracer gas leak detection and especially Helium leak detection is still the most sensitive commercially used test method on the market. Helium leak detection is only method able to detect sub-micron defects (far below the sterility level), instantly without storage or accumulation time. Beside the largest portfolio of helium leak detector in the market Pfeiffer Vacuum propose dedicated and turn-key solutions including helium charging and recovery for the integrity test of various containers syringes, vials, ..). Apart from the sensitivity, helium leak detection offers the capability to also locate the position of the leak which makes it an excellent method for the qualification and validation of primary packaging’s
