• A & B dual-channel design can test samples of two different specifications simultaneously.
• The target vacuum degree can be set by the operator to meet testing requirements of different samples.
• Dual methods of vacuum decay and pressure decay provide the flexibility to accommodate various types of package samples.

Precise Data

• Advanced pressure detection technology, using world renowned components for data stability which is not affected by ambient environment.
• Advanced microflow automatic flow control technology that can accurately simulate different sizes of leakage holes without manual adjustment.
• Both the differential pressure transducer and flow meter are traceable to NIST.
• The system can achieve a higher test repeatability of 1um.

Intelligent Control

• 15.6" embedded touch tablet computer with Windows OS.
• New longitudinal interface layout, and easy to use graphic user interface.
• Automatic alarm, automatic capture, automatic collection of unqualified samples.
• The pressure curve is displayed in real time, and the test results are counted automatically.
• Leakage rates are calculated automatically.
• The system is equipped with various sensors as intelligent reminders for safer operation and control.
• Universal printer can be connected for test results output.
• The system features embedded with USB and network ports to facilitate the external access and data transmission of the system, which can be upgraded remotely

Security Compliance

• Verified by compensation and calibration methods.
• The leak tester meets GMP requirements for data traceability and meets the needs of the pharmaceutical industry.
• User operation permission is managed at multiple levels, and the permission content can be configured on demand.
• Electronic signature is designed according to the standard requirements of 21 CFR Part11.

Test Principle

The sample is placed in the sample feeder and automatically delivered into the test cell. The leak rate and other results can be calculated and obtained by analyzing pressure changes measured by the sensor.

Advanced Detection with Precision and Compliance

Designed for rigorous pharmaceutical quality requirements, this equipment employs a high-sensitivity pressure decay sensor for detecting leaks in vials and blister packs. With 0.005 bar accuracy and compatibility with diverse specimen sizes-from 2mL vials to large blisters-the system ensures compliance with GMP, FDA, and ISO standards. The PLC-controlled process and automatic/manual modes streamline operations and support stringent regulatory needs for global suppliers.


User-Friendly Operation and Data Management

Featuring a 7-inch color touchscreen and intuitive PLC controls, operators can easily program settings, monitor tests, and review up to 20,000 stored results. Data export through USB and Ethernet simplifies reporting and traceability. The plug-and-play design allows fast installation in cleanrooms, and multilingual support (English, Chinese, optional others) enhances accessibility for international teams.


Hygienic and Efficient Maintenance

Constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel for durability and hygiene, the system features easy-to-clean surfaces and a sanitary design-perfectly suited for pharmaceutical environments. Low maintenance needs, rapid-exchange holders, and predictive diagnostics reduce downtime, ensuring on-going efficient leak testing in busy manufacturing lines.
