Helium Leak Detector
A helium leak detector identifies helium entering a test system using a mass-sensitive analyser.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Helium Leak detector, also known as a Mass Spectrometer Leak Detector (MSLD), is used to locate and measure the size of leaks into or out of a system or containing device. The tracer gas, helium, is introduced to a test part that is connected to the leak detector. The helium leaking through the test part enters through the system and this partial pressure is measured and the results are displayed on a meter.
In vacuum testing, the test article is evacuated and helium is applied outside it. Sniffer testing samples escaping tracer gas from a pressurised article; sensitivity and background conditions differ.
Fixture leakage, helium background and response time can dominate the result. A calibrated leak supports verification, while test sequence and recovery time determine practical throughput.
What turns activity into demand
Choose the method around article geometry and the acceptance task, not only the detector's stated sensitivity. Separate detectors from test fixtures, helium supply and outsourced leak-testing services.
The commercial boundary
Separate detectors from test fixtures, helium supply and outsourced leak-testing services.
